About AMERICAN SINGLES PASTEURIZED PREPARED CHEESE PRODUCT, AMERICAN

American Singles Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Product from KROGER are processed American cheese slices individually wrapped and sold under The Kroger Co.'s Kroger private-label brand. This product shares an identical formulation with other Kroger American singles variants, using the same dairy base and processing aids. American cheese singles are among the most commonly sold processed dairy products in the United States and are characterized by their smooth melt, mild flavor, and individual portion packaging.

The formulation uses American cheese — made from pasteurized milk, cheese culture, salt, and enzymes — as the base. Water, whey, and reduced lactose whey are added for moisture adjustment and dairy solid supplementation. Sodium citrate is the emulsifying salt responsible for the homogenous, non-stringy melt behavior. Skim milk and cream (from cream, milkfat, and butter) provide fat and dairy richness. Natural flavor, salt, and tricalcium phosphate are present in minor quantities. Annatto or a similar colorant accounts for the characteristic color noted as "color added." Natamycin provides natural mold inhibition.

Per 100 grams, this product delivers 316 calories, 23.68 grams of fat, 15.79 grams of protein, and 10.53 grams of carbohydrates. No fiber is present.

This product contains dairy in multiple forms and is not suitable for those with milk allergies, severe lactose intolerance, or vegans. No wheat, eggs, soy, or tree nuts are declared. It is appropriate for lacto-ovo vegetarians. The individual wrapper format is designed for convenience in sandwich preparation, and the sodium citrate emulsification ensures clean melting for hot applications including burgers and grilled cheese.
