Armstrong Pizza Mozzarella Cheese Block

Ivory mozzarella for the pizza peel, not a cheddar wedge. Armstrong calls the taste milky and a bit salty. The texture is semi-soft.

The page says made in Canada. Farmers started the brand in 1902, and the milk is still fully Canadian. Saputo Inc. of Montreal owns it.

Blocks come in 200 g, 400 g, and 600 g. No calorie table is printed. A lighter pizza mozzarella sits on a separate page. Pasta is named too.
