Oh, cheddar cheese powder, is there nothing you can’t do?

It started simply, as a popcorn additive. Then came the task of making broccoli palatable. Now, it’s in everything, from homemade pasta sauce to oven fries to homemade shredded beef tacos. Thickens _and_ seasons!

I have actually written to them, suggesting a jalapeno cheddar version. They’re sending me coupons.

Ohhh, Cabot’s! Yes, we buy it too! (It’s their most popular product, you know.) I’m down to one container – time to order more!
