Summary
This shredded cheese blend includes mozzarella, smoked provolone, parmesan, and asiago cheeses, which are generally nutritious and provide protein and calcium. However, the presence of artificial smoke flavor, a synthetic additive, detracts from the overall ingredient quality. The product is moderately processed, which limits its score despite the use of real cheese ingredients.
