About FETA CHEESE CHUNK, FETA
Good & Gather Feta Cheese Chunk is a traditionally styled block feta from Target's Good & Gather line, made from just three ingredients: cultured pasteurized milk, salt, and microbial enzymes. This minimal ingredient formulation reflects the authentic Mediterranean production method for feta, which relies on bacterial cultures and enzymatic coagulation to develop the characteristic salty, tangy, crumbly texture without any additives, stabilizers, or anti-caking agents.
The use of microbial enzymes (rather than animal rennet) makes this feta suitable for lacto-vegetarians, and many consumers consider microbial enzymes a cleaner production method. No artificial flavors, preservatives, colors, or processing aids are present. Dairy is the sole major allergen. The product is gluten-free, egg-free, soy-free, and nut-free.
Nutritionally, feta is a medium-fat cheese: 214 calories per 100g, 14.29g of fat, 17.86g of protein, and 3.57g of carbohydrates per 100g. Fiber is zero. Feta is notably high in sodium due to the brine curing process, which is standard for all feta styles. It is a moderate source of calcium and phosphorus.
The block format allows consumers to break or slice the cheese to their preferred size and texture, and the brine retained in the packaging helps preserve freshness and maintain the characteristic creamy-crumbly texture. Feta chunk is excellent crumbled over Greek salads, roasted vegetables, grain bowls, pizza, or pasta. It can also be baked in the oven with olive oil and herbs to create a spreadable baked feta. Not suitable for vegans or those with dairy allergies.
