    Sargento introduced three new products: Sargento Natural American Cheese –100% natural cheese; Sargento Seasoned Shredded Cheese – bold and flavorful blends in collaboration with flavor company McCormick & Co, Inc.; and Sargento Shareables – an easy-to-share, 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: 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. This industry-disrupting innovation, years in the making, underscores Sargento's 71-year commitment to quality as well as innovating the consumer experience for the future.

    Sargento Seasoned Shredded Cheese: Cheesy Meets Spicy: Developed in collaboration with McCormick & Co, Inc., Sargento Seasoned Shredded Cheese provide the spicy, bold twist on real, natural cheese that consumers crave. As adventurous consumers increasingly seek bold and spicy flavors, these three unique blends of seasoned shredded cheeses deliver the heat with recognizable flavor brands, creating an exciting new offering in the dairy case:

    • 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: Sharing Made Easy: These portioned cheese and cracker trays were designed for effortless sharing in small groups, ensuring the ideal cheese-to-cracker ratio in each bite. 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. Shareables come in three varieties, each featuring two Sargento real, natural 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 snacking leader Mondelēz International, Inc.'s Nabisco Crackers launched earlier this year. With this launch, the Sargento brand is in the cracker aisle for the first time.
