About CHEESE ORIGINAL CRUST PIZZA, CHEESE

Smart Way Cheese Original Crust Pizza is a frozen pizza product sold under The Kroger Co.'s Smart Way brand, a budget-oriented store label designed to offer lower-priced alternatives to name-brand products. This is a cheese-only pizza featuring a traditional wheat flour crust and a multi-cheese topping blend.

The crust is made from enriched bleached wheat flour with dough conditioners including malted barley flour, dextrose, and a cultured wheat flour mold inhibitor. Soybean oil, sugar, salt, and yeast complete the standard pizza dough formulation. The primary cheese component is low-moisture part-skim mozzarella (pasteurized part-skim milk, salt, cheese cultures, enzymes). The tomato sauce is straightforward: water, tomato paste, salt, sugar, onion powder, spices, and dehydrated garlic. A four-cheese topping blend adds mozzarella, mild Asiago, provolone with natural smoke flavor, and Romano cheese, all made from pasteurized milk with standard cheese cultures, salt, and enzymes. Powdered cellulose prevents caking in the blend, and natamycin inhibits mold. Contains wheat and dairy; not appropriate for gluten-free or vegan diets.

Per 100 grams, this pizza provides 215 calories, 11.41 g protein, 24.16 g carbohydrates, 8.72 g fat, and 1.3 g fiber. Calorie density is moderate relative to other frozen pizza products.
