For all my life, I've always been told that American cheese is some sort of plastic... However today I've decided to dive into the shady underground world of processed cheese and uncover the shocking truth that lies beneath its superficial "plastic" facade.

Add a starch like maltodextrin to it and then force that mixture through a very small hole at high pressure and then blast the resulting spray with heat, and you will have made cheese powder. The process is called sppray drying. If I remember correctly, sodium citrate is a preservative, and the hexa-metaphosphate affects the protein structure of the cheese, and allows it to emulsify with the water. Water is used because it's neutral and can be removed easily. If a product requires milk, then powdered milk solids and milk fats are used, and pure lactic acid can be used to adjust the pH level.

@@markhamstra1083 Yeah. As everyone knows, food comes in a natural quanta of 50 lbs bags (or occasionally 100 lbs, or sometimes 33 lbs). If larger, it comes as collection of bags on a 1000-2000 lbs pallet with all-natural plastic shrink-wrap (just as nature intended). Liquids come as natural sizes of either 5-gallon buckets or 55 gallon drums, potentially also on a pallet. Then, maybe before the modern era of forklifts, mammoths had used their paired tusks to move the pallets from place to place; with a bird sitting on their heads to screech at 1 second intervals when the mammoth is in motion. The forklift is merely a mechanical approximation of this natural order.

8:11 "At this point it just looks like cheese sauce." This is basically how you make a homemade cheese sauce for mac and cheese, except I've never heard of adding the hexametaphosphate and you usually add at least 1 other type of cheese. You should also add the cheese bit at a time, and stir it until it's fully melted and combined with the water before adding the next bit of cheese. Otherwise the resulting product could end up grainy. The sodium citrate helps keep the protein in the cheese from separating from the fats.

I loaded the belt and fed it into a mixing machine then it was sent downstairs and heated , extruded and sliced.

Fast food places contract out their own blend of cheese? I figured they just bought a standard brand of sliced American instead of specifying their own blend to be made at the manufacturer level, that's pretty cool. I guess if you require all your food everywhere to taste the same it makes sense, but I doubt the Kraft Singles taste different in Kentucky than they do in Oregon so I don't really see why they wouldn't just pick a cheese brand to buy unless it's cheaper to have it made specifically for them. Ether way that's pretty neat, I've worked in some factories where we produced stuff that we'd actually see out in the wild too so that kinda thing really tickles my autism.

Hey! Finally, something I'm an expert in. I'm a food science PhD working in process cheese R&D and I must say you did a great job! Every time I though "He should...", you did the thing I was thinking. Add fat, add shear, etc. The process cheese "product" you showed at the beginning is actually quite different in a lot of ways, though the eating experience ends up being very similar. The formulation and processing have to be developed in such a way that "cheese" has the proper mechanical properties and tensile strength to be cast into a thin sheet and rolled around the factory.. like toilet paper almost.. and into the wrapper. Thank you so much for showing people that food isn't really scary just because there is transformation and processing involved!!! 🙏❤
@terrencedent3071 3 місяці тому
Bonus chemistry for anyone interested: the salts you added are called "emulsifying salts" somewhat erroneously. While they are indirectly responsible for making the stable emulsion possible, they themselves aren't surface active and don't stabilize the oil water interface. They are actually chelating agents that sequester calcium from casein protein micelles. That causes the casein subunits (which are amphiphillic) to disassociate and orient at the oil-water interface, stabilizing the emulsion! Without the emulsifying salts, you would just have an oily, separated mess.

I briefly worked in a cheese shredding plant, where we'd shred 5-10lb blocks of cheese to make the pre-shredded stuff. For any given variety, we'd throw up to 20% other cheeses on the line, just whatever was about to be legally unsellable or which there was a glut of. Anything that couldn't be sold in block form for any reason. One of those reasons was mold; if there was mold visible on the block, we were to cut off any dot of mold larger than a dime. Smaller mold patches went right in, because it'd take too long to cut off all of the mold. So shredded cheese is pre-seeded with mold, made from the older cheese to begin with, and not even the variety or brand on the label. And this wasn't for a generic supermarket cheese brand, this was a proper brand. I stopped eating pre-shredded cheese after that. Of course, it didn't help that I'd come home each day covered head-to-toe in a layer of cheese mixed with sweat so think I could scrape it off with a knife. At least processed cheese is cooked a bit as part of the process. Should kill at least some part of any biological contaminants.

Fun Fact: "Kraft Singles" and similar store brands are classified as "Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Product" because it's made partially with vegetable oil, but there is deli-style American Cheese (ex. "Kraft Deli Deluxe" slices) and they are classified as "Pasteurized Process American Cheese". Which means it's a higher quality and has a higher cheese content. You basically made Deli-style in this video because it didn't have oil and fillers. This is why I always will be an advocate for Deli Style American cheese. It tastes so much better. You don't even have to get Kraft. Great Value (Walmart store brand) sells their own version of "Deli-style" American Cheese and its just as good.
