What 酼 means
Dictionaries record it for sauce and a tiny insect.
For the food sense, 酼 is a variant of 醢, the character for meat paste or sauce. In 酼鸡 and 食酼, it names a tiny insect described as growing in wine or vinegar left in a vessel.
A medieval Chinese character dictionary, 龍龕手鑑, records the sauce sense and links 酼 to 醢.

1Why does 酼 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
