Do you know if this would keep shredded cheese fresh longer?

Dont know about cheese but other foods seem to stay fresher longer. I like the Debbie Meyer boxes

Sorry, I don't know if it will keep shredded cheese fresh. I haven't put cheese in the container, but I don't see why it won't.

Never tried these with cheese. Why not just freeze in a plastic bag ? It does not take very long to become useable. It you are cooking with it, it does not matter--just take out the freezer bag and use it frozen. No problem !!!!I would suggest freezing cheese anyway if you want to keep a long time. I am sure these containers would work, but plastic bags take less space ---be sure to press out air from bag BEFORE you close.

I really don't know as I've never tried them for cheese. Wouldn't hurt to try. I use my boxes mainly for fresh vegetables and they work good for these.

I am not sure. I have not used it for cheese. But you could freeze the cheese to extend its life.

The boxes are specifically for fruits and vegetables and baked goods. Don't know about cheese, but can't hurt. Freezing keeps it for months.

Never tried it. Don't think it is a fair requirement for this cute little cheese keeper. If you open it once or twice a day the air would come onto the fresh slices. Plus it's not advertised to be "vacuumed" sealed ...

if its not too hard like parmesan cheese it should but be aware that it will only be small chunks

I bought one and love it. I took out the small pan inside (your suppose to set the smaller one in water on the inside) and it worked nicely. I bought a very large can of nacho cheese and placed the rest of the cheese in baggies (food saver bags that were sealed) and placed those bags in a crock pot of water so it would stay warm and I could just cut a corner and pour it into the paragon. Set it on high and it will stay warm. If you have leftovers spoon it out into a container and refriderate. My food saver works wonders for this because the nacho cheese has a shelve life and you do not have to refridgate unless you open the package. I bought one and love it.

I would say no. It tends to smash softer cheese, and even the hard stuff it crumbles instead of grating. I should have sent this back. As I am sure I stated in my review, it grates these cheese and spits it out in a long rope and because it grates it so fine, that 'rope' gums together and has to be separated by hand. pretty much useless.

sorry don't know, never tried to shred cheese. Handy little food processor though.

If you lined it with cheesecloth first, yes I believe it would work. However, if no cheesecloth, then no it would not work.

I haven't tried that. I use my Cuisinart mixer shredder attachment for that. I wouldn't think the Breville would give you the result of nice shredded cheese. It is a blender afterall. And excellent for any and all blending.

You know...I am not 100% sure on that one, it does make long shreds, when I shred cheddar cheese the strands are much longer in comparison to other modes of shredding (ie box greater). The only problem I can foresee using the shredding disk is that a zucchini is much lighter than the cheese and this may effect how long you make the noodle. I think you are looking roughly at the length of a egg noodle, and that is if you shove the zucchini in the spout lengthwise to promote the formation of a noodle. The Vita-Mix comes to mind when you said zucchini noodles (just thinking of the commercial, not that a vita-mix could make the noodle), and if that is what you are looking for lengthwise...I don't think this will do it. Hope that helps.

Yes. I use it to shred cheese all the time! The harder the cheese, the easier it is, so soft cheeses like Mozzarella, I usually freeze the cheese a bit first.

Yes, i have done cheese but very last piece of chs is about 1/4" thick. Ok for crackers

Absolutely! You can adjust the opening holes. Shaved cheese won't work but grated will. Enjoy! It is airtight.

I actually did not try it for anything else, when it did not grate the cheese (which is the main reason I bought it) I tossed it in the garbage bin. The other problem I had was there were too many parts to clean after use.

Yes it will work for Nacho Cheese. This items works similar to a small fridge, if you put the cheese in already warm it will keep it warm.

I haven't tried it on soft cheese, but I don't think it would work very well because the opening is fairly small. I think it would make a mushy mess out of soft cheese, but it does a stellar job on the harder cheeses!

I keep it in the plastic bag. I have a few different breads in there at any time. I do not know if it affects how long it stays fresh.

It would grate the cheese but it would take a long time due to the slender shape of the tool. It is definitely sharp enough and I have grated hard cheese with it. You may get tired if grating large quantities. Good luck !
