Don't be a curd.

I just feel so shredded when you talk to me like that, Jack.

No, I was working prep at a central kitchen that supplies food for about twelve restaurants.

Seven have since closed due to several cases of Farphalonas of the Blowhole.

The words "pneumatic" and "cheese" should never go together.

Much like "reconstituted" and anything I might put in my mouth.

In this case, it doesn't affect the quality of the cheese. It's merely a method of mechanizing a process so it can be done in hours rather than days. Imagine producing six hundred pounds of grated Asiago cheese using nothing but a knife and a hand grater. The pneumatic slicer cuts up twenty pound blocks into roughly one-pound chunks that will go into the industrial-sized cheese grater (which is a lot scarier than the pneumatic slicer, lemme tell ya).

I'll just imagine Giada de Laurentiis grating six hundred pounds of Asiago, wearing nothing but a knife and a hand grater.
