What is in it
Ingredients (as submitted): PASTEURIZED SKIMMED MILK, LACTIC CULTURES, SALT AND RENNET.
The statement lists 3 ingredients at the top level, beginning with Pasteurized Skimmed Milk, Lactic Cultures, Salt and Rennet.. 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 Oct 11, 2021), not the label on the shelf today.
