If you do feature her again, maybe try similar products to that freakin' awesome (heh!) wire cutter, alternatively something completely different in terms of cheesey gadgets.

Cutting cheese with a wire against a hard surface rarely works well. There needs to be a gap for the wire to go into for it to cut through the cheese properly. (Also the wire needs to be extremely tight.)

When I need to shred cheese, it is usually a relatively large quantity for a pizza or baked pasta dish such as lasagne, for that I use my food processor which does a great job in literally seconds. For anything else, I will use a sharp cheese knife or even a paring knife, depending on the cheese I am cutting. For storing cheese, I simply seal it in a vacuum container with my Food Saver vacuum sealer, which does a great job of keeping it fresh, literally for months. A couple of tips... when shredding cheese such as cheddar or mozzarella, put it in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes first. You will get a better result, and when slicing a firm or semi-firm block of cheese, bring it to room temp first as it will prevent the cracking of the cheese and result in a much better finishing edge at the bottom.

Oh yeah he didn't even touch on cleaning and he typically does. Not sure if that thing's worth having let alone cleaning anyway.

It's trying to solve a non-existent problem

I vividly remember as a kid, my grandma would buy a block/loaf of cheese and when it eventually was opened, she would grab a decent length of thread that had a fairly strong/high tensile strength and she would use it to slice the cheese evenly and accurately. She'd then put the thread in the package with the cheese and put it into the refrigerator, that way when she went back in to slice up some more cheese, she'd have it ready to go. It also made it so that the grandkids, like myself, didn't have to go searching for a bit of string either, nor would we need to get a knife and try to cut it without inevitably slicing a finger off, LOL... I'm sure there are some people reading this and cringing over what I'm saying, but it honestly worked really well. One of her favorite cheeses was Velveeta which, (I doubt there's anyone out there that doesn't know what velveeta is, but just in case it's a very soft cheese that looks and tastes somewhat like the sliced American cheese yet it's far softer and has a much creamier texture). Anyway, we would always pull the top off the Velveeta box, grab that string, and start slicing away so I could either snack on it, or make a sandwich. LOL. Talking about it brings back a lot of memories and reminds me how much I miss my grandparents. Good memories though. Good memories indeed...

I was also in Oddesy of the Mind! I had completely forgotten about that. I was it in for two years. I think the first year it was called Olympics of the Mind. They changed the name for some reason. It was fun, we got to travel to competitions.

Yup, absolute legendairy product!

I use a vegetable peeler to cut my block cheese thinly and a standard box grader for anything else. I also use it to slice off thin curls of frozen butter, yes frozen butter, the kind you have to use when no one replaces the butter when it's out.

I learned so much about cheese today.

Great review of a bad idea. I like most cheeses sliced very thin and have a set of handheld cheese planes in different sizes that work perfectly for me or I use my cheese knife that has a very thin blade and the softer the cheese the colder it needs to be before slicing or grating for best results....

Wooo! New Zealand! Thats so cool seeing our wine overseas!

You wouldn’t commute to work with a lorry, nor would you tow a trailer with a Fiesta. “Cut soft-ripened or crumbly cheeses like Brie or Roquefort with a skeleton blade to minimize adhesion. Cut medium-hard to medium-soft cheeses with a wire slicer. Cut hard cheeses like parmesan using a knife with a pear-shaped blade forced into the cheese to "break" it.” As a meat cutter, I know you don’t start out with a paring knife, but I do know there is a knife that covers most bases. A knife cutting cheese covers less bases than a wire or wire based cutting device. A wire would cover more cheeses without ruining them than a knife.
