It can also be created by fermenting glucose with special citric acid producing bacteria. Citric acid is commonly added to many foods and beverages as a preservative or for flavor. It has a tart taste, and is commonly known as lemon salt or sour salt. The strong, tart-taste of citric acid is used to flavor many foods and even a couple of salt-free blends.
