Changing interest in Kraft Singles

I added a graf at the bottom of the page talking about the America's decreasing interest in Kraft Singles. Anybody want to talk about adding additional information or whether the information I added was relevant?

Milk Protein Concentrate

Has anyone considered mentioning the questionable nature of the MPC in Kraft Singles? The following quotes from various sources:

http://www.nffc.net/issues/dairy/dairy_2.html "NFFC also requested the 108th Congress to prevent the illegal use of MPCs in standardized food products by forcing the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to enforce federal standards and take regulatory action against illegal, adulterated products."

http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/editorial/outlook/4818117.html "Milk protein concentrate, which enters the United States as an industrial-grade ingredient to make adhesives and which has never been subject to consumer-safety testing or given Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS) status by the FDA, is now found in hundreds of adulterated cheese products, candies, chips, nutritional drinks and other processed junk foods."

http://www.infoshop.org/inews/article.php?story=2006111807473660 "MPC is legal for glue and for industrial uses, but it has never been approved for human consumption." "Some of the countries sending MPC to the U.S. for use in our food supply include India, Russia, and China, all nations where questionable health issues in the past have included radiation contamination, chemical pollution, and disease factors."

Classification

In the interest of accuracy, maybe this product should be referred to as a "Cheese-like substance"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.25.148.87 (talk) 03:36, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Change to Kraft Singles Ingredients

Kraft Cheese recently removed sorbic acid from the ingredients of their full fat American and White American Singles. The ingredient link in the entry is correct, but it does not reflect the new ingredient information. More information and updated links are below:

These changes do not impact 2% or skim milk varieties, only full fat American and White American. Kraft American Singles are made with: CHEDDAR CHEESE (MILK, CHEESE CULTURE, SALT, ENZYMES), WHEY, MILK, MILK PROTEIN CONCENTRATE, MILKFAT, WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE, SODIUM CITRATE, CONTAINS LESS THAN 2% OF CALCIUM PHOSPHATE, SALT, LACTIC ACID, ANNATTO AND PAPRIKA EXTRACT (COLOR), NATAMYCIN (A NATURAL MOLD INHIBITOR), ENZYMES, CHEESE CULTURE, VITAMIN D3.
