You'll love these practical, attractive and easy-to-use graters. They're perfect for grating parmesan cheese or for cheddar, gruyere, etc. and can be used in the kitchen and at the table. A simple twist action grates the cheese and it goes just where you want it! Put the base back on before you put it down and there's no mess. Any unsed cheese can be left in the grater & stored in the fridge for later use.
