Sometimes there are tiny white spots on my cheddar cheese especially sliced and I am wondering if they are mold?
It depends. Like most cheeses, it is made with curds, and sometimes a given curd is isolated from the fermentation that takes place in the rest of the cheese.
On the other hand, if a slice of cheese has been around for awhile in the refrigerator, or in a refrigerated case or package, mold can/will appear. A magnifying glass can be used to determine if the white spot is "fuzzy", in which case it is mold.
Pluck it out of the slice and eat your cheddar undisturbed.

I thought I'd leave the above answer in tact since people may still find value in it but 9 times out of 10 the white spots are deposits of calcium that have separated. In fact if you buy certain brands of cheddar (cant remember specific names but there's a Canadian extra strong brand that I'm specificall thinking of) these white spots are sometimes already on the cheese when you open it, there's even a little note on the pack to tell you what it is if you don't know.
