Sargento debuts natural American cheese, two brand collaborations
Sargento has announced three new launches: Sargento Natural American Cheese; Sargento Seasoned Shredded Cheese—flavorful blends in collaboration with McCormick & Co, Inc.; and Sargento Shareables—a ready-to-serve cheese and cracker tray in partnership with Mondelez International.
“For more than 70 years, our focus on innovation, quality and taste has made Sargento the leader in natural cheese,” said Erin Price, Sargento general manager of consumer products. “In 2025, we’re continuing our leadership by unveiling three new products that will resonate with consumers looking for bold, new flavors and snack options, while at the same time, growing the natural cheese category. We're thrilled to partner with other category leaders like Mondelēz International and McCormick & Co, Inc. to bring these groundbreaking natural cheese products to market.”
Sargento Natural American Cheese is a sliced cheese made with 100% natural cheese. Unlike typical processed American cheeses in the dairy case with nine or more ingredients, Sargento Natural American Cheese has just five, delivering the melt, flavor, aroma and texture that consumers are familiar with, the brand said.
Sargento Seasoned Shredded Cheese was developed in collaboration with the spice company McCormick & Co, Inc. The cheese provides the spicy, bold twist on cheese that consumers crave, the companies said, and is available in the following flavors:
- Sargento Shredded Cheese with Frank's RedHot Hot Sauce Seasoning
- Sargento Shredded Cheese with Cholula Hot Sauce Seasoning
- Sargento Shredded Cheese with McCormick Crushed Red Pepper
Sargento Shareables are portioned cheese and cracker trays designed for sharing in small groups. Building on the success of Fun! Balanced Breaks snacks in partnership with Mondelēz International, Inc., Shareables offer a convenient, resealable snacking solution for consumers to serve, enjoy together and save for later, per the brand. Shareables come in three varieties, each featuring two Sargento cheeses paired with Ritz or Triscuit crackers:
- Sargento Cheddar & Colby-Jack + Ritz
- Sargento White Cheddar & Gouda + Triscuit
- Sargento Pepper Jack & Monterey Jack + Ritz
The new innovations expand the Sargento family of products, joining the recently released Sargento Cheese Bakes, a collaboration with Nabisco Crackers. With this launch, the Sargento brand is in the cracker aisle for the very first time.
Each new product can be found at retailers nationwide in the dairy case and cracker aisle.
