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.
I just use one of these bad boys
Lovingly referred to as “the wheely mcdeely” in my social circle
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 😬
pop goes the cheesle
Just mash it through with your finger pads, you about can’t be cut.

Nah it’s boring untill it gets fun.
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 stop at that point and enjoy your cheesy reward for a job well done.

But you still have to stabilize it with your fingers. If you grate low enough, your fingers will be grated.

Then you’d still be left with a bit of cheese in the indent, and how’re you gonna grate that?

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?

Depending on the cheese you can use a mandolin with a grater
