About CREAM CHEESE SPREAD
Great Value Cream Cheese Spread (id 1655906) is a lower-fat cream cheese spread variant from Walmart's store brand, sold in the cheese category. The USDA database records 0 g of fat per 100 grams for this entry, which is likely a data entry anomaly — cream cheese spread with this caloric value (258 cal/100 g) and ingredient composition would contain fat from the pasteurized milk and cream base.
Ingredients: pasteurized milk and cream, cheese culture, salt, guar gum, citric acid, carob bean gum, xanthan gum, and natamycin (a natural mold inhibitor). Natamycin is a polyene antifungal produced by Streptomyces natalensis bacteria, used in food production as a natural preservative to prevent surface mold growth — it is the key differentiating ingredient from standard cream cheese entries (92406 and 1958474) which do not list natamycin. Citric acid is also absent from the standard cream cheese formula and present here, suggesting this may be a whipped or lower-fat cream cheese spread where citric acid assists texture.
Allergens: dairy. Free of wheat, soy, and other major allergens. No artificial flavors, colors, or synthetic preservatives. Natamycin is a natural antimycotic, widely used in European and American dairy products. A spreadable cream cheese suitable for bagels, crackers, and dips. The 258 cal/100 g (vs 321-357 for block cream cheese) suggests a whipped or reduced-fat formulation.
Ingredients
