About KROGER, PEPPER JACK
Kroger Pepper Jack is a natural semi-soft cheese from the Kroger store brand, made from pasteurized whole milk with jalapeño peppers blended directly into the cheese culture during production. The ingredient list is admirably simple: pasteurized milk, jalapeño peppers, cheese culture, salt, and enzymes — with no anti-caking agents, colors, or preservatives. This clean-label formulation reflects traditional Monterey Jack-style cheesemaking with pepper inclusion.
As a dairy product, it contains milk. No wheat, soy, nuts, or eggs are present. Jalapeño peppers are the primary heat source; those with capsaicin sensitivity should be aware. No artificial colors or flavors are used.
Nutritionally, this pepper jack delivers approximately 357 calories per 100 g with 21.4 g protein, 28.6 g fat, and 3.6 g carbohydrates — a high-fat, high-protein, low-carbohydrate cheese. The fat is predominantly saturated, typical of whole-milk semi-soft cheeses. Pepper jack melts smoothly and is widely used in quesadillas, burgers, grilled cheese, nachos, and Tex-Mex cooking where its combination of mild creaminess and jalapeño heat is desirable. The clean ingredient list makes it one of the better natural cheese options in the Kroger line.
