About CHEDDAR JACK CHEDDAR & MONTEREY JACK FINELY SHREDDED CHEESES, CHEDDAR JACK
Meijer Cheddar Jack Finely Shredded Cheeses is a pre-shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese blend sold under the Meijer store brand. This USDA entry differs from the companion entry (ID 1919927) in one formulation detail: the anti-caking system (potato starch and powdered cellulose) and the mold inhibitor natamycin are listed as standalone ingredients applied to the overall blend, rather than being listed exclusively within the Monterey Jack component. This suggests a slightly different production or packaging approach, though the final product serves the same culinary purpose.
The cheddar is made from cultured pasteurized milk with color added, while the Monterey Jack is made from cultured pasteurized milk with salt and enzymes. The anti-caking system of potato starch and powdered cellulose prevents the shredded pieces from fusing during storage and extends the product's usability after opening. Natamycin is a naturally produced antifungal compound used in cheese production and approved for this use by the FDA.
A 28-gram serving provides approximately 393 calories per 100 grams, 25 grams of protein, 3.6 grams of carbohydrates, and 32.1 grams of fat with no fiber. This product contains only dairy as an allergen. It does not contain gluten, soy, eggs, or tree nuts. It is not suitable for those with milk allergy or lactose intolerance. The fine shred format melts evenly and is commonly used as a topping for Mexican-style dishes.
