Ahahahaha ... I still remember Popeye claiming that the grocery store
sold him rat turds instead of peppercorns

 
I think he said that peppercorns were swept up off the floor with rat
turds and packaged.
 

Yup, and The Old Sailor also claimed that shredded cheese consisted of
the remnants of cheese that were swept up from the floor...

 
He wasn't far off, they add cellulose and wax to many shredded cheeses
to keep them from sticking.  I won't buy that junk, only actual blocks
of cheese.
 

Sargento brand shredded cheese isn't bad.  But yes, it contains powdered
cellulose:

 "Shredded cheese containing sawdust and cotton wool isn't
bad" 

 REALLY??

from wood pulp (saw dust) or cotton lint"
