About MONTEREY JACK CHEESE WITH PEPPERS, MONTEREY JACK
True Goodness Monterey Jack Cheese with Peppers is an organic specialty cheese from Meijer's True Goodness sub-brand, the organic and natural product line sold at Meijer supercenter locations based in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The cheese is made from pasteurized organic milk with red and green jalapeno peppers, salt, cheese cultures, and non-animal rennet.
The use of non-animal (microbial) rennet is a significant distinction, making this cheese suitable for lacto-vegetarians who avoid animal rennet. Pasteurized organic milk means no synthetic pesticides, growth hormones, or antibiotics in the milk supply. No artificial preservatives, anticaking agents, natamycin, or food starches are added, resulting in a very clean label. Dairy is the only allergen present. No wheat, soy, or nut allergens appear.
At 357 calories per 100 grams with 3.57 g of carbohydrates, 25 g of protein, and 28.57 g of fat, this is a high-fat, high-protein cheese consistent with the Monterey Jack style. Zero fiber is expected for cheese. The jalapeno pepper content adds mild to moderate heat and a subtle vegetable flavor. It performs well in quesadillas, sandwiches, burgers, and as a snacking cheese for those who prefer organic dairy.
