About CHEESE SPREAD
Kroger Cheese Spread is a processed cheese spread product sold under The Kroger Co.'s Kroger brand, positioned as a shelf-stable spreadable condiment for crackers, sandwiches, or dipping. This type of product combines pasteurized process American cheese with salad dressing (mayo-style base) and pimento and jalapeno peppers to create a pimento cheese-style spread.
The primary component is a pasteurized cheese product built on American cheese (pasteurized milk, cheese culture, salt, enzymes), water, whey, modified whey, milk protein concentrate, skim milk, buttermilk, sodium citrate, cream, salt, sodium phosphate, sorbic acid (preservative), and annatto and beta-apo-8'-carotenal for color. Salad dressing (soybean oil, water, vinegar, sugar, HFCS, egg yolk, modified corn starch, salt, mustard flour, and preservatives including sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, and calcium disodium EDTA) forms the binding component. Pimentos and jalapenos add color and heat. Carotenol provides additional color. Contains dairy, eggs, and soy.
Per 100 grams, this spread provides 304 calories, 8.7 g protein, 13.04 g carbohydrates, and 21.74 g fat. The fat content is driven primarily by the soybean oil in the salad dressing base and the milkfat in the cheese component. This product is not suitable for low-fat diets. It is commonly used as a sandwich spread, cracker dip, or stuffing for celery.
