Wegmans Pizza cheese

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 4 ingredients to avoid

Wegmans Pizza cheese scores 44/100 on Tallow — our okay 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.

Wegmans Pizza cheese lists 17 ingredients, starting with Wheat Flour, Water, Low Moisture Part-skim Mozzarella Cheese, Uncured Salami Pepperoni and Tomato Concentrate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 44/100 Wegmans Pizza cheese lands mid-scale — below the typical score in frozen pizza, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in frozen pizza is 365 Whole Foods Market Pizza Crust at 95/100.
