Kraft Shredded Cheddar & Monterey Jack Cheeses 16 oz: version 1

Saved 2026-09-13 11:05 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added **Kraft Shredded Cheddar & Monterey Jack Cheeses 16 oz** (UPC 021000601493), a wanted-list barcode (old title "kraft chedmont finely sh"). - Identity and ingredients from the USDA FoodData Central Branded Foods record (fdc_id 1608811, Label Insight, 2021) and the matching Open Food Facts record; the lookup's `conflict` was spurious (both name the same cheese). - 16 oz net content and 'finely shredded' only from the archived 2007 Barcodepedia page (upcdatabase.com import), kept as an unconfirmed edition observation. - Brand brand/kraft (existing); brand_owner_at_sale and gs1_prefix_owner company/kraft-heinz-foods-company (prefix 0021000 stated on that stub). - Per-100 g nutrition panel as normalised by USDA; no label photo exists. - New ingredient stubs: cheddar-cheese, monterey-jack-cheese, annatto, potato-starch, cellulose-powder, calcium-sulfate, natamycin. - Unresolved (research_gaps): no retailer listing or photo printing the UPC found; kraftheinz SmartLabel page is JS-only; ingredient statement may be stale (Kraft's current shreds list modified cornstarch); current availability unknown.. Current is v2.

## About <!--about-->
Kraft Shredded Cheddar & Monterey Jack Cheeses is a pre-shredded blend of the two natural cheeses sold in the United States under the Kraft brand, with Kraft Heinz Foods Company named as brand owner in USDA's Branded Foods label data.[^usda] Its ingredient statement lists Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese coloured with annatto, potato starch, cellulose powder and calcium sulfate against caking, and natamycin as a mould inhibitor; Open Food Facts repeats the same list.[^off] The barcode's GS1 company prefix 0021000 belongs to Kraft Heinz Foods Company.[^khfc-label2024]

The barcode was already on Barcodepedia in 2007, when an entry imported from upcdatabase.com described it as a 16 oz pack of finely shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack.[^bp2007]
