This product consists of parmesan cheese crafted from pasteurized part-skim cow's milk, combined with standard cheese-making ingredients and minimal additives for anti-caking and preservation. It delivers classic nutty, salty parmesan flavor while providing a good source of protein and calcium, though it is best consumed in moderation due to sodium levels.
Ingredients
6 listed · 2 flagged · estimated by AI, check the label- Pasteurized Part-Skim Cow's Milk (Dairy Base)Beneficial
Provides high-quality protein, calcium, and phosphorus for bone and teeth health; rich in vitamins but contains lactose and is a top allergen that may cause digestive issues or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.
- Cheese Cultures (Fermentation Starter)Beneficial
Beneficial bacteria that aid in cheese production and may support digestive health through probiotic effects, though in hard cheeses like parmesan the live culture count may be low.
- Salt (Flavor Enhancer and Preservative)Caution
Adds essential sodium for electrolyte balance but in high amounts can contribute to hypertension and increased risk of heart disease; typical in cheese making.
- Enzymes (Coagulant)
Facilitates the transformation of milk into cheese; usually animal or microbial derived, neutral impact on health with no significant nutritional contribution or risk.
- Powdered Cellulose (Anti-Caking Agent)
Plant-based fiber that prevents clumping; contributes minimal insoluble fiber which can aid digestion but used in small quantities with generally neutral effects.
- Potassium Sorbate (Preservative)Caution
Inhibits mold growth to protect flavor and extend shelf life; considered safe by authorities but some consumers avoid due to potential for mild allergic reactions or preference for natural preservatives.
