Summary

This grated parmesan cheese is primarily made from high-quality parmesan, which is a good source of protein and calcium. However, it includes cellulose powder and natamycin, which are additives used for anti-caking and mold inhibition, respectively. These additives contribute to its processing level, limiting its score despite the beneficial aspects of the cheese itself.
