I've seen a youtube video about that, and from what I remember it's was detectable as soon as it went over 10% or so. Although a corporation could easily get it over 10% without issue if they used the right particle size, mixing technique and treatement of the sawdust.

It honestly wouldn't surprise me if some cheap seasoning is partially sawdust or similar.

    e.g., cellulose, added to kraft parmesan as an "anti-caking agent."

    I love how they insist it's not sawdust - since they don't literally use the byproduct of lumber milling, like the shit they sweep up from the floor. But it's still wood turned into a powder, which the term "sawdust" is perfectly valid for.

    There's a bag of "bacon flavored bits" at Walmart that's just sawdust seasoned to taste like bacon.

    Now to be fair, freeze dried bacon bits in general tastes worse than animal feed. So if you ground it up and covered it in the anti-clumping agents, it is basically sawdust without containing any wood.
