Health notes

The main components of Cheddar And Blue flavor, such as cheese powders, are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. Any other flavorings used in the blend must also be approved by the FDA for use in food. JECFA and EFSA evaluate specific food additives, not broad flavor profiles like 'Cheddar And Blue.' There are no specific health controversies associated with this flavor blend itself, beyond those that might apply to its individual components, such as sodium content from cheese.
