Common questions
Is Kraft Cheese healthy?
Kraft Cheese scores 94/100 on Tallow — our clean band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.
What is in Kraft Cheese?
Kraft Cheese lists 4 ingredients, starting with Milk, Salt, Starter Culture and Rennet. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.
