About this product
Kraft Singles American is a 12 oz (340 g) pack of 16 slices of pasteurized prepared cheese product sold in the United States under the Kraft brand, with Kraft Heinz Foods Company of Chicago named on the back label.[1] Kraft Heinz lists it among its KRAFT SINGLES products at 50 calories per 21 g slice.[2] Kraft Singles were introduced in 1950, and the product carries the "pasteurized prepared cheese product" name after a 2002 FDA warning over a recipe that used milk protein concentrate.[3]
