About COLBY SHREDDED CHEESE, COLBY
Meijer Colby Shredded Cheese is a shredded natural Colby cheese sold under the Meijer private label brand by Meijer, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Shredded Colby has a mild, slightly sweet flavor suitable for melting on nachos, tacos, chili, and baked dishes.
Ingredients are cultured pasteurized milk, salt, enzymes, color added (annatto, providing the orange hue), an anti-caking system of potato starch and powdered cellulose, and natamycin as a natural mold inhibitor.
