Potassium citrate is a potassium salt of citric acid. It is a white, crystalline powder. It is odorless with a saline taste. It gives the cheese a consistent texture and appearance making it appealing. The sour taste of potassium citrate tends to mask some of the acidity of carbonated soft drinks. It gives a more balanced tart flavour. This is even more important in sodas, as their sugar replacements often have a less enjoyable flavour on their own. Monosodium glutamate (MSG), also known as sodium glutamate, is the sodium salt of glutamic acid.MSG is used in cooking to enhance the flavor with an umami taste that intensifies the meaty, savory flavor of food, as naturally occurring glutamate does in foods such as stews and meat soups.MSG is found naturally in some foods including tomatoes and cheese in this glutamic acid form.
