        I mean I don’t think you have to be that old to remember the cinnamon challenge. It took off in popularity in the early 2010 so about 10-15 years ago.

        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.

    Tastes good atop of arabica bean soup and foamed lactase.

    edit: grammatical correct word to use here was “lactation” or “lactose product”.

      foamed lactase.

      Isn’t that the thing that digests milk, but not milk? You can buy little lactase pills at the pharmacy.

        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.

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

      It’s actually potato starch.

      Sawdust isn’t just cellulose. Wood is a matrix of cellulose fibers bound together by a tougher compound called lignin. While lignin isn’t particularly toxic, you wouldn’t want to eat it.

      Fun fact, a lot of the process of making paper is for removing the lignin, only the cellulose is useful for making paper. And grasses like bamboo have a higher ratio of cellulose to lignin, so it’s better for making paper

        Its not always potato starch though.

        I mostly know this because my daughter is allergic to potatos so we have to only get certain brands of cheese.

          This might be the worse allergy I can think of. I didn’t know anyone had this allergy. I am so very sorry to hear this.

            Oh its been worse. But at the moment its become down to potato and lettuce. Its all part of her Mastcell related to EDS. Ten years ago when she was in High School basically the only only thing she could and did eat was plain chicken and plain eggs. At this point, with medications, she can mostly eat normal, aside from the potato and lettuce.

        Potato sawdust. Haha. I knew it wasn’t sawdust like trees but it was a dusty material made from plant but I didn’t know what kind.

    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.

      Sawdust has a lot more in it than just cellulose. The meme is a joke, but it’s closer to reality than calling cellulose powder derived from wood pulp “sawdust”.

      I imagine things that aren’t explosive in that form are probably not good for your lungs (I’m imagining asbestos) 😅
