About FINELY SHREDDED REDUCED FAT 4 CHEESE MEXICAN BLEND, MONTEREY JACK, CHEDDAR, COLBY, MOZZARELLA
Kroger Finely Shredded Reduced Fat 4 Cheese Mexican Blend is a pre-shredded reduced-fat multi-cheese product sold under The Kroger Co.'s Kroger private-label line. This blend combines four cheeses — Monterey Jack, cheddar, colby, and mozzarella — all produced from part-skim milk to achieve the reduced-fat designation. The Mexican blend profile is a widely used combination for Tex-Mex and Mexican-inspired dishes including tacos, enchiladas, quesadillas, and nachos.
All four cheeses are made from pasteurized part-skim milk with cheese cultures, salt, calcium chloride (a firming agent used during curdling), enzymes, and optionally annatto for orange color variation. The part-skim milk base reduces the fat content compared to full-fat cheese while retaining the protein and calcium framework. The anti-caking system applied to the shredded surface includes potato starch, corn starch, dextrose, and calcium sulfate. Natamycin serves as a natural mold inhibitor as is standard in commercial shredded cheese products.
Nutritionally, the reduced-fat profile is reflected in the 267 calories per 100 grams — notably lower than full-fat shredded cheddar at 393 calories. The protein content at 23.33 grams per 100 grams remains high, while fat is 16.67 grams and carbohydrates are 3.33 grams. No fiber is present. A 30-gram serving delivers approximately 80 calories. This product is appropriate for reduced-fat dietary approaches while retaining the functionality of natural cheese for cooking and melting applications. Allergen note: contains milk.
