About LOW-MOISTURE PART-SKIM MOZZARELLA FINELY SHREDDED CHEESE
Kroger Low-Moisture Part-Skim Mozzarella Finely Shredded Cheese is a pre-shredded version of Kroger's block mozzarella, formulated with the same cheese base — pasteurized part-skim milk, cheese culture, salt, enzymes, and calcium chloride — with several anti-caking additives to keep the shreds separate and free-flowing: potato starch, corn starch, dextrose, calcium sulfate, and natamycin.
Natamycin is a naturally derived antifungal compound produced by the bacterium Streptomyces natalensis. It is approved for use as a mold inhibitor on cheese surfaces in the United States and is listed as "a natural mold inhibitor" on the label. Unlike synthetic preservatives, natamycin does not penetrate the cheese but acts on the surface. Potato starch, corn starch, and dextrose are common cellulose/starch anti-caking agents standard in shredded cheese products.
At 286 calories per 100 grams with 3.57 grams of carbohydrates and 17.86 grams of fat, the nutritional profile mirrors the block version. Protein appears as 0 grams in the USDA data entry, which is likely a data entry anomaly — mozzarella of this type typically contains approximately 26–28 grams of protein per 100 grams. The only allergen is dairy (milk). No artificial colors, flavors, or synthetic preservatives are present. This is a convenient, ready-to-use shredded cheese for pizza, pasta, and melted cheese applications.
