Summary
Cheesehead Cheddarella is a processed cheese product made from low moisture part-skim mozzarella and cheddar cheese, both of which provide high-quality protein and calcium. The ingredient list is relatively clean, with no harmful additives or seed oils, but the product's processing level limits its maximum score. The use of pasteurized milk and cheese cultures contributes positively to its nutritional profile.
