Common questions

Is Kraft Pepper Jack healthy?

Kraft Pepper Jack scores 99/100 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 Pepper Jack?

Kraft Pepper Jack lists 6 ingredients, starting with Pasteurized Milk, Jalapeno Peppers, Cheese Culture, Salt and Enzymes. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

No. Nothing in Kraft Pepper Jack’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Kraft Pepper Jack?
