Bonus you can use the grater on your foot callouses
I recently had an incident with a mandolin while slicing vegetables that required stitches. Can confirm.
Nah it’s boring untill it gets fun.
Just mash it through with your finger pads, you about can’t be cut.

pop goes the cheesle
I’ve got a plastic version, but if I need to shred a block it hurts my hands after a while, because of how light it is.
I bought one of these to solve that problem (this also has a finer cylinder for a thinner grate):
If I ever need more than a pound, I can probably use the disc on my food processor, although the last time I tried, I didn’t freeze my cheese prior, and ended up with a lot of smeared cheese on the disc 😬
Since no one seems to know they exist, a cheap food processor grates cheese and slices/dices vegetables perfectly for most dishes and sits right on your countertop. Saves so much time and prep work.
Does it? Seems like those are always more work to clean than just a simple grater, which is why I usually just go for the grater.
Blenders and food processors are easier to clean actually. You put water in them and just add a squirt of dish soap. Run it for a few seconds then rinse it out.
I feel stupid now.
It depends on the volume you need. A food processor can shred an 8 ounce block in a few seconds. You will spend a bit more time cleaning, but it can save a lot of prep time if you need multiple blocks or lots of vegetables. I used one a lot more when I was meal prepping multiple dishes.
Just eat the last little bit.
I can here to say this, Can’t believe it’s not the default.
Just stop at that point and enjoy your cheesy reward for a job well done.
I support this message
Put the cheese on the cutting board and grate from the top. No need to live in a horror movie lol
But you still have to stabilize it with your fingers. If you grate low enough, your fingers will be grated.
You can use something that isn’t your fingers to stabilize it 😐
3D-print a cutting board with a small indent (or ask someone to). It’s not rocket science.
You know what? You can patent that if it doesn’t exist.
Then you’d still be left with a bit of cheese in the indent, and how’re you gonna grate that?
Bro, get a life.
Why are you getting so offended over a simple and fun conversation?
Says the person who got offended about me mentioning the leftover cheese in a theoretical cheese grating cutting board?

mmmmmm… canabalism
Depending on the cheese you can use a mandolin with a grater
