Brought to light in this week's specials Requeson Cheese is used in our stuffed Poblano Peppers Special. So what is Requeson Cheese? 

It is a cheese that is very similar to Ricotta Cheese, and in fact requeson is the spanish work for ricotta. In traditional areas it is often seen in markets being sold wrapped in corn husks. It is similar to ricotta but softer andshould be easy to find in better latin markets.
