Sausage cheese

Melted sausage cheese is a food that is made by thermally treating rennet types of cheese.

Sausage cheese gets its original form in the process of packing the cheese mass using a special culinary syringe in a package of cellophane and other polymers.

Melted sausage cheese differs not only in its consistency, but also in its taste. Sausage cheese is soaked in special smoking chambers with the help of smoke for about three hours. As a result of this processing, food manufacturers receive smoked melted sausage cheese. However, not all modern food manufacturers conscientiously approach the requirements for the process of making sausage cheeses.

Therefore, some varieties of melted sausage cheeses contain a food additive or chemical "liquid smoke, " which gives the cheese a distinctive taste and aroma. Perhaps the content in the chemical composition of the product of synthetic "liquid smoke" can be considered an example of the harm of sausage cheese to the human body.
