About KROGER, ALL NATURAL CHEESE EXTRA SHARP CHEDDAR
Kroger All Natural Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese is a natural aged cheddar cheese sold under The Kroger Co.'s house brand, carrying an all-natural claim that aligns with its minimal, clean-label ingredient profile. Each 28-gram serving provides 393 calories per 100 grams, with 32.14 grams of fat, 25.0 grams of protein, and 3.57 grams of carbohydrates.
The five-ingredient list contains: pasteurized milk, cheese culture, salt, enzymes, and annatto for color. Annatto is a natural orange-yellow pigment derived from the seeds of the achiote tree (Bixa orellana), widely used in Cheddar cheese to achieve the characteristic orange color — without annatto, Cheddar would be pale yellow to off-white in color. The extra sharp designation means the cheese has been aged for a longer period than standard, mild, or sharp Cheddar, developing a more pronounced, tangy, slightly crumbly texture and robust flavor profile.
Allergens include dairy. This product is free from all synthetic additives, preservatives, artificial colors, and artificial flavors. Suitable for gluten-free and vegetarian diets. Kroger's extra sharp Cheddar provides significant calcium, protein, phosphorus, and vitamin B12. The extended aging reduces residual lactose, making it more tolerable for some individuals with lactose sensitivity compared to fresh dairy. This cheese is suited for cheese boards, sandwiches, burgers, mac and cheese, casseroles, omelets, and direct snacking.
