    Shredded cheese has cellulose (basically sawdust). It’s added to keep the cheese from sticking together. Or that’s my understanding.

        I’m old enough to have a now-adult son who was dumb enough to try it. Although, at the time, I didn’t know what he was up to, so I just told him “it’s not sweet, the only reason you think it sweet is because it’s always mixed with sugar.” Fortunately, he didn’t take much of it.

        Opps. You are correct.

        Lactase, is an enzyme that helps break down lactose into its component parts for digestion. (Wiki)

        I guess I was trying to use the verb form “lactate” for a science-y term for milk.

    Pay attention to how often you see “cellulose” as a listed ingredient. That’s also usually processed wood pulp.

    That cheap powdery parmesan often found in pizza places? Also sawdust.

    It gets extra funny when you see cellulose listed on something with artificial cinnamon flavoring.

      It’s not sawdust. Some might be derived from wood but it’s just cellulose and does not contain lignin, which is what differentiates wood from other plant matter. Chemically, it’s basically the same as any other plant starch.

      Depending on where it came from, and what wood, I wouldn’t be surprized if it was outright healthy. Tons of fiber, plus dietary sources of lignans are rare.

        It’s actually used a lot in food, along with other agricultural waste materials. You’ll find it listed in ingredients as cellulose. It’s processed to hell and indigestible, so it doesn’t really do much nutritionally beyond adding a bit of dietary fiber.
