Pay attention to how often you see “cellulose” as a listed ingredient. That’s also usually processed wood pulp.

That cheap powdery parmesan often found in pizza places? Also sawdust.

It gets extra funny when you see cellulose listed on something with artificial cinnamon flavoring.

It’s not sawdust. Some might be derived from wood but it’s just cellulose and does not contain lignin, which is what differentiates wood from other plant matter. Chemically, it’s basically the same as any other plant starch.

If your pizza places have sawdust in their parmesan, change nation.

Sawdust has a lot more in it than just cellulose. The meme is a joke, but it’s closer to reality than calling cellulose powder derived from wood pulp “sawdust”.
