About KROGER, COLBY JACK CHEESE
Kroger Colby Jack Cheese (shredded, with anti-caking agents) is a pre-shredded Colby Jack cheese sold under the Kroger private label of The Kroger Co. Unlike the block-format Colby Jack entries, this shredded version includes anti-caking agents necessary to prevent clumping during storage and dispensing from the bag.
The ingredient list distinguishes this as a two-cheese blend: Colby cheese made from pasteurized milk, cheese culture, salt, enzymes, and annatto color alongside Monterey Jack cheese made from pasteurized milk, cheese culture, salt, and enzymes. Beyond the cheeses, potato starch, corn starch, dextrose, and calcium sulfate are added to prevent caking — the same anti-caking system used across Kroger's shredded cheese line. Natamycin, a naturally produced antifungal agent from Streptomyces natalensis bacteria, is applied as a mold inhibitor on the surface of the shredded cheese.
At 357 calories per 100 grams with 25 grams of protein, 3.57 grams of carbohydrates, and 28.57 grams of fat, the nutritional profile is consistent with the block formats. The added starch and dextrose contribute a small amount of carbohydrates beyond what natural cheese would contain. No gluten, soy, eggs, or nut allergens are present beyond dairy. Natamycin's natural origin and low use level is considered low-risk, but it is worth noting for consumers seeking minimal processing.
