What is in it
Ingredients (as submitted): COTIJA CHEESE (PASTEURIZED PART-SKIM MILK, SALT, ENZYMES AND CULTURES), CELLULOSE POWDER (AS ANTICAKING AGENT), POTASSIUM SORBATE (PROTECT FLAVOR), AND NATAMYCIN (A NATURAL MOLD INHIBITOR).
The statement lists 4 ingredients at the top level, beginning with Cotija Cheese (pasteurized Part-skim Milk, Salt, Enzymes and Cultures). It has no separate "Contains" line; a major allergen (the nine the FDA requires on labels: milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soybeans, sesame) may be named inside the ingredients instead. For allergies, read the package: this is the record USDA holds (updated Jun 12, 2023), not the label on the shelf today.
