Food experiment gone horribly wrong.
Don't try this at home.
Macaroni and cheese packet mixed with olive oil.
I thought maybe this might be useful as a cheese seasoning, but the only way this stuff is even edible is after it is mixed with a big bowl of noodles.
DO NOT try to taste this straight. I don't think I want to know what is in it that makes it taste like that.

Some experiments last night making sodium citrate emulsifier with baking soda and lemon juice.

adding it to sharp cheddar makes an interesting lemon flavored cheese sauce

@bitsavers "This isn’t any ordinary salt as it’s not going to make your cheese sauce salty." Sigh. What part of "sodium" in "sodium citrate" don't they understand? This is trisodium citrate so the sodium is something like 26.7% by weight. Not as much as table salt, but still...
