Summary

This cheese product contains traditional cheese ingredients like pasteurized milk, cheese culture, salt, and enzymes, which are beneficial and minimally processed. However, the presence of modified food starch and natamycin, which are additives, contributes to its processed nature. While these additives are generally recognized as safe, they detract from the overall purity and simplicity of the product, resulting in a moderate processing level.
