Here’s my take on the Parmesan controversy—if you prefer the green can stuff, that’s cool. But if you prefer the stuff from a block, it’s just as easy—those blocks stay good forever in the fridge and it takes less time to powder grate it with a boxed grater than it does the shake the Kraft stuff out of the can (where it always clumps despite the anti cake chemical). We grew up with the green can in the 70s and I think switching to the solid block was probably one of the life changing food moments of my life. I put it on everything.
PS for those who like the buttered pasta, try getting your hands on some pastina—the butter to pasta ratio is greatly increased and it’s next level carb/fat combo.
This thread is making me want some of that onion dip with the ruffles ridged chips.

This is delicious. I sometimes add hot sauce, Texas Pete is best.
Imagine how good it would be with real cheese, and not that green can stuff?
You realize it is real cheese, right?
It's technically real cheese, but it's not real parmesan cheese. It's mixed with fillers and anti-caking agents, and the base cheese is only allowed to be called "parmesan" because there are no laws that govern the term in the US, unlike Italy where actual parmesan is made. Kraft actually isn't allowed to sell its green can cheese as "parmesan" anywhere in Europe.
It’s not real Parmigiano-Reggiano. Which means it did not originate from Parma, Italy.
Just like most American Champagne does not come from champagne France. Just like it’s illegal to sell California “champagne” in Europe they must call it sparkling wine.
We know Kraft Parmesan is not Parmigiano-Reggiano, we know it has anti caking agents in to that why it’s on this thread.
But here's the thing - the PPs don't go out and buy this crap when they are home alone - they have it in their house already. It's what they buy for their families to use as "Parmesan." There's just no reason or excuse for that.

I weep for the future.

Hmm, does that require an extra utensil or do you use the back of your spoon?
Did you know you can remove frosting from a can with a knife?
