    You can get great cheese, shredded.  (Cabot / Seriously Sharp!)  
    Does it cost extra for something that would only take a minute and typically produce a better result?  Yes.  Yes, it does.

    You can buy pre-shredded Cabot??

    I actually did a coat analysis and it's almost the exact same price by weight for block cheese and shredded.
    The difference in flavor and texture is well worth the effort to shred it.

    I do prefer to buy blocks of cheese and shred them but for my tacos I buy Cabot Mexican shredded cheese.

    For Parmesan or Reggiano though they have to be blocks.  The taste is so much better when you fresh grate it.

    Yes and I agree.  Also, if I buy a block of good cheese the odds of other family members eating it all is slim -- them being generally lazy when it comes to shredding it themselves.  ;)

    I happen to like the Kraft grated parmesan that's 50% sawdust lol

    For tacos, I go fresh shredded jack.

    I have some of that "100%" kraft parmesan...you know, for the kids.
    ;)
    Grew up eating that stuff - love the 50% sawdust comment and I used to coat my pasta with it.  (yuck)



    I use the real stuff that I grate over my plate.

    I don't use it for much, but it's salty as fuck and dry enough to really thicken a sauce up, so I have a few uses for it, most notably crappy spaghetti, shitty pizza, and Cajun pasta.

    Ah, ok, it did sound like a light jab to me.
    OGP is our household slang for our Holy Trinity of cooking.  Onions, Garlic, Peppers.
    Not much do I cook without those three, and I grow them in abundance.

    A pizza cutter is as basic as a spatula or whisk. Don't get this one.

    I don't know anyone who still uses the pizza cutters that they bought in.. I guess the 90s/early 2000s.

    Everyone uses a scissor, or a knife. Atleast here in Sweden. Amongst people I know. And we have many pizza places and great pizzas here.
