Wegmans Low-Moisture Part-Skim Mozzarella Shredded Cheese, 8 oz — OKAY

Munch or Dump rates Wegmans Low-Moisture Part-Skim Mozzarella Shredded Cheese, 8 oz by Wegmans OKAY — score 62/90.

This is real part-skim mozzarella with a genuinely short ingredient list: milk, salt, and enzymes. The only knock is the powdered cellulose dusted on to keep the shreds from clumping. Buy the block and grate it yourself and this is a clean MUNCH.

Why this verdict

• Four-ingredient list built on cultured part-skim milk, salt, and microbial enzymes
• Powdered cellulose is added purely as an anti-caking agent, the one processed touch here
• Uses microbial enzymes rather than animal rennet, so it is vegetarian-friendly
• No artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives
• High protein, moderate fat, but sodium runs a bit high per serving
