This mozzarella cheese is made from pasteurized part-skim milk, cheese culture, salt, and enzymes, which are generally considered high-quality ingredients. However, it includes an anti-caking blend with natamycin, a mold inhibitor, which adds to its processing level. While the product is relatively clean, the presence of additives and its processed nature limit its score.
