The goal of this cooking and food science fair project is to understand how processed cheese is made, and to determine which percentage of emulsifying salt produces the best processed cheese. The Science Buddies project ideas are set up consistently beginning with an abstract, objective, and introduction, followed by a section on terms, concepts, and questions, bibliography, list of materials and equipment, experimental procedure, suggestions on how to vary the experiment, plus a focus on the sort of careers this experiment might relate to.
