At a glance
Summary
This cheese snack stick is primarily made from cultured pasteurized milk, which is a beneficial ingredient providing essential nutrients like calcium and protein. However, it is classified as ultra-processed due to its processing level, which limits its score despite having a clean ingredient list with minimal additives. The presence of annatto as a natural colorant does not significantly impact the overall healthiness of the product.
