I thought it was common knowledge that there would be at least some wood pulp in any shredded cheese you buy. Without it, the cheese would clump together. You can easily forgive the Whole Foods one having 0.3%, but those with 8-9% is a big oof.

Basically if you eat processed factory created food, you're eating wood.

Which is probably the main source of fiber in that junk food and many people's diets.
