Today we celebrate one of America’s favorite comfort foods, Mac and Cheese! July 14th is National Mac and Cheese Day, so let’s all celebrate with a warm bowl of creamy, cheesy goodness!
Mac and Cheese is one of the simplest and most versatile foods, whose origins date back as far as the 13th century, where it was first mentioned in a medieval cookbook. The recipe called for small sections of pasta to be boiled in water and then tossed in cheese. Now, 800 years later, you can buy mac and cheese in a box with powdered cheese, all thanks to some of Balchem®’s spray dried powder technologies.
Our Spray Drying Technology greatly extends the shelf life of powdered sauce mixes, whether dairy or plant-based, so that its rich flavors will not diminish over time, while our Agglomerated technology helps preserve the smooth, creamy texture that we all know and love in our mac and cheese! These two technologies paired together are what makes the flavors and textures of boxed mac and cheese unique and possible.
