About KROGER, SHARP CHEDDAR PASTEURIZED PROCESS CHEESE SNACK
Kroger Sharp Cheddar Pasteurized Process Cheese Snack is a processed cheese product sold under The Kroger Co. store brand, typically found in individually portioned sticks or slices designed for snacking. Unlike natural cheddar, this is a process cheese manufactured from whey, cheddar cheese, and added emulsifiers and stabilizers, resulting in a mild, consistent cheddar flavor and soft, meltable texture.
The first ingredients are whey, cheddar cheese (milk, cultures, salt, enzymes), and soybean oil, followed by sodium phosphate, whey protein concentrate, carrageenan, yeast extract, sodium citrate, natural flavor, lactic acid, sorbic acid (preservative), and artificial colors Yellow 5 and Yellow 6. Allergen notes: contains dairy (whey, cheddar cheese) and soy (soybean oil, implied soy lecithin in some process cheese variants). Carrageenan is used as a stabilizer; yeast extract provides umami depth. Artificial colors Yellow 5 and Yellow 6 are synthetic dyes. No wheat or nut allergens listed.
At 290 calories per 100 grams with 22.58 grams of fat, 9.68 grams of carbohydrates, and 12.9 grams of protein, this process cheese snack is lower in calories than natural cheddar due to the whey and water dilution. No fiber. While convenient and consistent in texture, the artificial color use and processed nature distinguish it from natural cheese options in the same brand lineup.
