IMPORTED GRATED PECORINO ROMANO CHEESE
Analysis updated August 2026 · How Scout scores
At a glance
Summary
This product is primarily composed of Pecorino Romano cheese, which is a traditional cheese made from sheep's milk, providing beneficial nutrients like protein and calcium. However, the inclusion of powdered cellulose as an anti-caking agent introduces a level of processing that classifies it as ultra-processed, limiting its score. Despite the cheese's nutritional benefits, the processing level and presence of additives prevent a higher rating.
