No, of course not - it's mixed well with water and other ingredients and when cooked, it thickens the sauce

I really liked the way this pie tasted, but I must have done something wrong with the meringue. Even though it was watery, it baked just fine over the top. For some reason, my refrigerated left-over pie turned into a lemon puddle by the next day. No matter though, it still tasted great in a bowl. - 1/25/10
