Summary
This cheese blend contains multiple types of cheese, which are generally nutritious and provide protein and calcium. However, it includes additives like potato starch, corn starch, and calcium sulfate to prevent caking, as well as natamycin as a mold inhibitor. The presence of these additives and the level of processing involved in creating a shredded cheese blend contribute to its classification as ultra-processed, which limits its score.
