💡 Bonus Benefits of Using Block Cheese
More flavor
Fresher taste, no additives masking richness
Better nutrition
Pure cheese — no fillers or starches
Cheaper per ounce
Blocks are almost always less expensive than shredded bags
Less packaging waste
One block = one wrapper, not plastic + cardboard + liner
Custom shred size
Want thick shreds for pizza? Fine ones for sauce? You decide
Even better — keep a microplane or box grater near your fridge so grating becomes second nature.
🧀 How to Make the Switch (Without Losing Your Mind)
1. Buy Cheese in Bulk
Buy larger blocks when on sale — most cheeses freeze well.
Wrap tightly in parchment + foil, then freeze for up to 3 months.
Thaw in the fridge before grating.
2. Pre-Grate and Store
Grate a big batch and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
No need to re-grate every time.
3. Use the Right Tools
A box grater is fast and efficient.
