About MACARONI AND CHEESE, CREAMY
Kroger Creamy Macaroni and Cheese is a prepared deli or refrigerated macaroni and cheese product — ready-to-eat or heat-and-serve — from the Kroger brand. Unlike the dry boxed version, this uses cooked enriched semolina macaroni in a wet, creamy American and Swiss cheese sauce. The cheese system combines American cheese, Swiss cheese, and enzyme-modified cheese, all made from part-skim and whole milk with cultures, salt, and enzymes. Butter fat, skim milk, whey, sodium phosphate, lactic acid, and xanthan and guar gums contribute to the smooth, creamy sauce texture.
Sorbic acid is used as a preservative. Color comes from annatto (natural) and B-apo-8 carotenal (a synthetic carotenoid colorant approved for use in dairy foods to enhance yellow-orange color). Spice adds a subtle flavor depth. No artificial flavors, HFCS, or declared artificial dyes beyond B-apo-8 carotenal are present.
At 160 calories per 250 gram serving with 6.8 grams of protein, 18 grams of carbohydrates, 6.8 grams of fat, and 0.8 grams of fiber, this is a moderate-calorie, convenience format mac and cheese. Allergens include wheat (semolina pasta, wheat flour) and dairy (extensive: milk, cheeses, butter fat, skim milk, whey, milkfat). No eggs, soy, or nuts are present. The B-apo-8 carotenal synthetic colorant is worth noting for additive-conscious consumers.
