About KROGER, PARMESAN CHEESE
Kroger Parmesan Cheese is a shredded or grated parmesan from the Kroger store brand, made from pasteurized part-skim milk with cheese culture, salt, and enzymes — the traditional parmesan base. Anti-caking agents including potato starch, corn starch, dextrose, and calcium sulfate prevent clumping in the shredded format, and natamycin serves as a natural mold inhibitor. No artificial flavors, colors, or chemical preservatives are present beyond the natural anti-caking system.
As a dairy product, this cheese contains milk. It is free from wheat, soy, nuts, and eggs based on the listed ingredients. Note that authentic Italian Parmigiano-Reggiano uses raw milk, while this product uses pasteurized part-skim milk, which is typical of American-produced parmesan-style cheeses and affects flavor intensity and texture.
Nutritionally, Kroger Parmesan stands out for its exceptional protein density: approximately 35.7 g protein per 100 g, with 357 calories, 25 g fat, and just 3.6 g carbohydrates. It is a protein-rich, low-carbohydrate cheese suitable for sprinkling over pasta, salads, soups, roasted vegetables, and risotto. The dry texture from part-skim milk and aging allows it to integrate seamlessly into recipes without adding significant moisture. A small 7 g serving provides meaningful calcium and about 25 calories, making it an efficient flavor-boosting topping.
