Thank you for your comment. One of the main reasons for writing my posts is to help my readers understand what is in the food they often take for granted. Your response expands on that effort — and supports my belief in fresh, natural, unprocessed foods taking center stage in anyone’s diet.

It’s most often imported for use in glue production. Do you really want to eat products that contain a mystery powder from unknown sources including unregulated foreign countries? (Think of China and malamine!) Kraft has put profits above the health of their customers and has even had to relabel their American Cheese slices to remove the word “food” from the label. Kraft Singles are not legally a food, but a “product” now. Sadly, the FDA is looking the other way as these illegal food “products” make their way to store shelves and onto our tables. For health and food safety reasons, people should read labels and avoid products that contain milk protein concentrate. Real cheeses such a swiss, provolone, muenster, monterey jack don’t contain MPC and are great on a sandwich. Annie’s Homegrown mac & cheese mixes are made without MPC. The only Kraft American Cheese slices that I can find without MPC is the Deli Deluxe variety.
