About PIMENTO CHEESE, PIMENTO
Food City Pimento Cheese is a Southern American spread made from a processed Swiss and American cheese blend combined with a mayonnaise-style dressing and diced red pimentos. The cheese blend is made from Swiss cheese and American cheese processed with cream, whey, water, sodium phosphate, and colorings from annatto and paprika. The dressing component contains soybean oil, water, high fructose corn syrup, corn syrup, distilled vinegar, modified food starch, egg yolks, cider vinegar, potassium sorbate, spice, xanthan gum, and natural flavors. Red pimentos are diced and added in their canned form with water and citric acid. A 30-gram serving provides 333 calories, 10 grams of protein, 13.3 grams of carbohydrates, and 26.7 grams of fat. Pimento cheese is a traditional Southern spread used on sandwiches, crackers, celery sticks, and burgers, and this commercial version captures the characteristic creamy, tangy, slightly sweet flavor associated with the regional staple.
