A few days ago, I was wondering if there was some way to buy just the cheese powder from cheesy chip snacks. I did some internet searches. THIS seems promising. In the reviews, many people compare it to the cheese powder from a box of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. So then I wondered: would the Kraft powder taste good by itself? Oddly enough, I don’t think I’ve ever tried it. So I popped open a box of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese and tasted it.
My judgment? The powder does taste cheesy, but it’s not as salty as the powder from the Ritz Chips or from cheese flavored crackers. It’s a little bland. Would adding salt make it better? Maybe. But for now I want to keep looking for some wonderfully salty cheese powder that I can eat just by itself.
I always salt the water I cook my noodles in, so the finished result is a little saltier. (I add pepper, too. Super-gourmet macaroni for me, please.)
That reminds me of a macaroni-and-cheese contest I read about a long time ago. Ladies came from all over to make their homemade recipes, and some guy placed third with a box of Kraft. His accompanying directions by his winning dish said something like, “Follow directions on the box. Add salt. Salt is important.” Here’s the article – he’s at the bottom: http://www.goodeatsfanpage.com/abfp/ABArticles/MacRecipes.htm##4
Cheese? Cheese. CHEESE! 🙂

Here’s my suggestion: Buy a box of Cheez-Its. Put them in the Ninja with a little coarse salt and blend until powder like. It could work.
