It thaws so quickly that we often use it on pizzas and salads from frozen without any problem whatsoever.Macomb Money Savershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09151207861710376233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7863110865991625393.post-21035494445189261172009-10-14T12:59:29.073-04:002009-10-14T12:59:29.073-04:00I've never frozen blocks of cheese; we always shred & freeze it and it tastes fine on salads or cooking in a dish. If you put the cheese in regular freezer bags it does get a little crystally, but it still works just fine. But, Laura you'll be happy to know that we bought a vacuum sealer in July and have been using that to freeze shredded cheese. It's amazing, not one crystal. It looks like it's a blob of cheese (we're learning not to seal so long) but take a handful of the blob and it separates perfectly with your fingers and stays the same as if we bought it yesterday.

I prefer not to freeze blocks of cheese because they crumble so badly. Shredded cheeses are great frozen! My son doesn't mind the crumbles (he's 18 months!) but for me it's too hard to slice. I only use it if I'm planning to cube cheese for a salad or something. It doesn't taste different, though.rebeccahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01114195852543176156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7863110865991625393.post-27564806391910305562009-10-13T17:27:04.669-04:002009-10-13T17:27:04.669-04:00I agree with Kelly. The blocks taste fine post-freeze, but they shred terribly (in my opinion). As for slicing, it's not too bad...but the shredding is very crumbly!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7863110865991625393.post-86127982241953652022009-10-13T17:25:16.819-04:002009-10-13T17:25:16.819-04:00Thanks for the insight!!!Laura Webberhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01164809658415173534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7863110865991625393.post-81347943094483789262009-10-13T16:36:30.303-04:002009-10-13T16:36:30.303-04:00I also freeze my blocks of cheese. The only thing I notice after freezing the cheese is that it gets a little crumbly when you try to slice the cheese. But it tastes no different.Kelly2|42StuCohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08166991577394457269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7863110865991625393.post-89525480210628812272009-10-13T15:30:11.800-04:002009-10-13T15:30:11.800-04:00We normally stock up on Kroger's shredded cheese when it's $1. I will also keep them in the refridgerater until expiration nears, they freeze great. We let them thaw at in the refrigerator and you would never know they were frozen.Carriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07253825992061540979noreply@blogger.com
