Woolworths Tasty Shredded Cheese generally receives positive feedback for its convenience, good value, and versatile, full flavour suitable for pizzas, pies, and toasties, often seen as comparable to pricier brands. However, some users dislike the anti-caking agents (like cellulose/starch), finding it can create a powdery texture or affect melting, leading some to prefer grating their own block cheese for better results. Positive Feedback (Convenience & Value) Time-Saving: Saves time compared to grating block cheese. Good Value: Considered economical and a good everyday staple. Versatile: Great for pasta bakes, pizzas, salads, toasties, and casseroles. Taste: Described as having a strong, full, and genuinely cheesy flavour, even in the light version. Negative Feedback (Additives & Texture) Anti-Caking Agents: Many dislike the powdery or starchy texture from additives (like cellulose or potato starch) used to prevent clumping. Melting Issues: Some report it doesn't melt as smoothly as block cheese due to these additives. Texture/Taste Concerns: Occasional complaints about a waxy feel or slight synthetic taste when unmelted. Tips & Alternatives Rinse for Better Melt: Washing pre-shredded cheese under cold water can help remove some anti-caking agents, improving melt. Buy the Block: For the purest cheese experience without additives, buying Woolworths cheese in block form and grating it yourself is recommended.
