About KROGER, AMERICAN CHEESE SINGLES
Kroger American Cheese Singles are individually wrapped process cheese slices sold under The Kroger Co.'s house brand, one of the most widely consumed American cheese products in the Kroger store network. Each 19-gram slice provides 316 calories per 100 grams, with 23.68 grams of fat, 15.79 grams of protein, and 5.26 grams of carbohydrates.
The base is American cheese made from pasteurized milk with cheese culture, salt, and enzymes. This is blended with water, whey, modified whey (twice listed in the ingredient declaration), milk protein concentrate, skim milk, buttermilk, cream, sodium citrate, sodium phosphate, and salt. Sodium citrate and sodium phosphate are the emulsifying salts that give process cheese singles their characteristic uniform, consistent melt without fat separation. Sorbic acid serves as the preservative. Color comes from annatto (natural plant-based orange pigment) and 8-apo-8'-carotenal (a synthetic carotenoid color additive).
Allergens include dairy (multiple forms). Free from wheat, soy, eggs, tree nuts, and peanuts. American cheese singles are a ubiquitous American pantry staple suited for cheeseburgers, grilled cheese sandwiches, breakfast egg sandwiches, and melting over vegetables. The emulsified format ensures even melting without oil separation, making these slices the preferred melting cheese for commercial-style burgers and deli sandwiches.
