Summary
This shredded mozzarella cheese is made from organic milk, which is a positive aspect, providing a good source of protein and calcium. However, the presence of cellulose as an anti-caking agent and its classification as an ultra-processed product limit its score. Despite its organic origin, the processing level and use of additives prevent it from achieving a higher rating.
