Today I'm testing out The Cheese Chopper, featured on Shark Tank. It's primarily for block cheese, but after trying it myself, I wanted to see what a cheese expert had to say about it, and how it worked on other types of cheeses!

You can get the "pro" slicer she's using, and in stainless steel, for $90. It may be twice the price, but it's also twice as good and will last twice as long.

yeah but it can't shread cheese or scratch your table as easily.

@tarstarkusz 2 года назад

Probably WAY more than twice as long.

@timothybagrowski643 2 года назад

For $90 you can buy a decent cheese knife and a ton of decent cheese. I have a cheap wire cutting board cheese cutter that came as a gift with cheese, it works just as well, except I find myself just using a knife 98% of the time.

Definitely kudos to Diana for sharing her all-around knowledge - and tremendous camera presence, too boot. (And the next time I'm in Henderson - I know where I'll be stopping by).

"Goopy boy", "commited to that block life". ❤ Seriously underrated woman, love her. You two in the same frame actually look and seem equally as proffessional. 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.

@m2pt5 2 года назад

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.)

@Wolf_90702 2 года назад

My 15 dollar hillshire farm marble cutting block is like this. Cuts like a guillotine using a wire and the marble table has a groove in it for the wire to cut through entirely.

@rapmastac1362 2 года назад

I have an old cheese cutter that has a groove in the wood for the wire. I couldn't find a replacement wire quickly after mine snapped, so got a handheld one. I ended up just cutting a thick slice of cheese, then laid it sideways and put the block on top and used that cheese to give me the gap I needed for the hand slicer.

@barcham 2 года назад

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.

When I saw the thumbnail, I was excited. About a minute into it, the feeling was gone. Out of all of your videos, I think I can count on one hand, the items I'd be willing to buy based on your demos. You're fair with the products and that's just how it is. That said, I love all of your videos, I've been a subscriber for a few years now and I can't wait for the next one. 👍

@three6ohchris 2 года назад

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...

@ToniHinton 2 года назад

Unwaxed dental floss is ideal for this. You can use it for slicing lots of delicate things, like cake layers, too.

@Emeraldwitch30 2 года назад

@@ToniHinton that's what I used for years until my sons best friend gave me his old guitar strings. I soaked it and cleaned it and put it on some old wooden dowels I had. It cuts through cheese or cake so nicely. It even worked on tofu to make neat slices

@SandrA-hr5zk 2 года назад

I have a nice little marble cheese slicer. Simple wire with a groove in the plate for the wire to slice all the way through. The metal handle design allows for the wire to keep a tight tension. Plastic is never going to keep that tension.

To random guy reviewing gadgets with *EXPERTS ON THE FIELD* In all seriousness, it's pretty cool to have another perspective, especially that of an expert. I mean, yours is already enough because it's pretty apparent in most cases, but it's definitely cool to see what experts actually use, and definitely a comparison between "as seen on tv" vs regular (like in this case, a knife), vs an expert tool, as in this case, the wire.
