This cheese powder is amazing. It tastes delicious and cheesy. The flavor is a lot like the powder that comes in Kraft macaroni and cheese boxes, except without the saltiness. This cheese powder is excellent for making any kind of cheese sauce. It dissolves easily into water or milk and makes a creamy sauce. We add this to regular, boxed mac & cheese to ramp up the cheesiness. If you’re making a thin sauce, you do have to whisk or beat the powder to avoid lumps. We’ve never had a problem with lumps when adding extra cheese powder directly to the prepared mac & cheese from a box.This versatile powder is very fine and great for sprinkling. Our favorite is to add sprinkle this over popcorn with a little butter-flavored cooking spray. The powder adheres really well to the popcorn and tastes delicious, though you do need a fair amount of it. Still, cheese popcorn really elevates movie night to a whole new level. The kids are obsessed with this and add it to everything I let them. This cheese powder is perfect for broccoli cheese soup, casseroles, or sprinkling over French fries, chips, or crackers (and yes, we’ve done all of those!). This cheese powder stores well, for the most part. The shelf life of an unopened can is about 10 years, according to the manufacturer. We haven’t had any cans from this manufacturer for that long, but these cans do last for at least a year without the quality diminishing. Once opened, the cheese powder lasts for 2-3 months on the shelf without diminishing in flavor. However, we live in a humid climate, so at about 2 months in you run into the problem of the cheese powder clumping up. Once it does that, the flavor is still fine, but it’s much more difficult for it to dissolve, you can’t use it for sprinkling, and it makes for a lumpy, grainy sauce. If you plan to store an open can for more than about a month, you’ll need to put a couple of food-safe desiccant packs into the open can. This is a great cheese powder that you can use for long-term storage, but also for just regular, everyday use. We don’t have to struggle to rotate this into our diet. We got these cans on sale for about $20/can on Popcorn store, which is a great deal, and cheaper than most other cheese powders on Popcorn store. When this stuff comes on sale, you better believe, we’re buying it! Read less
