About COLBY JACK COLBY & MONTEREY JACK REDUCED FAT CHEESE STICKS, COLBY JACK
Meijer Colby Jack Reduced Fat Cheese Sticks are reduced-fat natural cheese sticks sold under the Meijer private label brand by Meijer, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan. This item is classified under processed cheese and cheese novelties. Reduced fat cheese sticks are individually portioned sticks made from reduced fat milk, offering a lower calorie and fat option compared to full-fat cheese sticks while retaining similar protein content.
The two component cheeses are both made with reduced fat milk: reduced fat Colby cheese from cultured pasteurized reduced fat milk, salt, enzymes, color added, and vitamin A palmitate; and reduced fat Monterey Jack cheese from cultured pasteurized reduced fat milk, salt, enzymes, and vitamin A palmitate. Vitamin A palmitate is added to both components because the natural vitamin A from full-fat milk is reduced when fat is removed; fortification restores the vitamin A content. No anti-caking agents are present in the stick format. Allergens include milk.
Nutritionally, these reduced fat sticks provide 333 calories per 100 grams with zero carbohydrates, 28.57g protein, and 21.43g fat. Fiber is zero. Serving size is 21 grams.

This product is suitable for lower-fat, low-carbohydrate, and gluten-free dietary patterns.
