Mar 3, 2016 - Nora Weiser, executive director of the American Cheese Society,
says cellulose isn’t found in wheels of cheese, but in shredded varieties,
where it’s used as an anti-caking agent. “It is a legal, food-grade additive,”
she says. “It keeps the grated cheese products from clumping.”
In the early 1980s, I had a GI test using barium through a tube through the nose. After the test, they pumped in 3 liters of methyl cellulose, and pointed me towards a corridor that had 18 bathrooms - I counted them.
