About MUENSTER CHEESE, MUENSTER
Meijer Muenster Cheese is a natural semi-soft cheese from Meijer, Inc., the Grand Rapids, Michigan Midwest supercenter. This variant includes pasteurized milk, cheese culture, salt, calcium chloride, enzymes, and annatto color — a slightly extended ingredient list compared to other Meijer Muenster products due to the inclusion of calcium chloride.
Calcium chloride is used in cheesemaking to restore the calcium balance in pasteurized milk that is affected by the heat treatment process, improving curd formation. It is a food-grade additive with no allergen concerns. Annatto provides the natural orange color. Dairy is the only allergen. No artificial preservatives, HFCS, BHA, or TBHQ are present.
At 357 calories per 100 grams with 21.43 g of protein, 28.57 g of fat, and 3.57 g of carbohydrates, this is a standard full-fat Muenster profile. The small carbohydrate count may reflect lactose retention variation. The calcium chloride addition is a common and benign cheesemaking practice. It melts well and suits sandwiches, grilled applications, and snacking. Compatible with keto and low-carb dietary patterns.
