Frozen Frugality vs. Festering Food

(this text thread is to provide a bit of context for what you are about to read)

So, it’s a long story, but I have a bag of shredded cheese I may not use in the near future, so I inquired about freezing it. I Googled it, while simultaneously texting MamaG. (I trust one of these sources much more than the other, but I tried both anyway….)

In my online search, this popped up as the first inquiry in a chat room:
Went to the commissary today and found a great deal. Bought 15 bags of shredded cheese, hoping I could freeze it. Has anyone froze shredded cheese? When defrosted did it taste any different? Thanks in advance!

I mean, do you have room for fifteen bags of shredded cheese in your freezer? Should I have room for fifteen bags of shredded cheese in my freezer? I don’t have much in my freezer, but I certainly still don’t have room for that! (ain’t nobody got time fa dat…) Secondly, even if you did have the room, what if you found out that you aren’t, in fact, able to freeze shredded cheese? I mean… fifteen bags? This was on a “frugal shopping” message board. Don’t get me wrong, I’m allllllll about frugality (hi, expired products that I eat regularly), but seriously? That might’ve been something you wanted to research before you bought fifteen bags of shredded cheese, chief.

Anyhoo, Bev has some work to do before hitting the bed. I mean, someone has to go cook my expired bacon and put my shredded cheese in the freezer, guys. (One bag)

One.
