Summary

This cheese product contains high-quality ingredients like pasteurized milk and cheese culture, which are beneficial for health. However, it is classified as ultra-processed due to its processing level, which limits its score despite the absence of harmful additives. The use of annatto as a natural colorant is not a major concern, but the processing level imposes a cap on the score.
