Summary

This shredded mozzarella cheese is a processed product with added potato starch and powdered cellulose to prevent caking, which slightly detracts from its natural cheese quality. While it contains natamycin as a mold inhibitor, which is generally safe, its presence as a preservative raises some concerns. The cheese itself provides a good source of protein and calcium, but the processing level and additives limit its score.
