What is in it

Ingredients (as submitted): CULTURED PASTEURIZED MILK, CREAM AND NONFAT MILK, MODIFIED CORN STARCH, SODIUM PHOSPHATE, POTASSIUM SORBATE (TO PRESERVE FRESHNESS), AND VITAMIN A PALMITATE.

The statement lists 6 ingredients at the top level, beginning with Cultured Pasteurized Milk, Cream and Nonfat Milk, Modified Corn Starch. 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 Jul 14, 2017), not the label on the shelf today.
