How many cups in 8 ounces of block cheese?

Answer 1

I just grated a 16-ounce block of Swiss cheese. It yielded 5 cups of shredded cheese. I'm sure the yield could vary somewhat; I did not pack it in the measuring cup, and it was not finely grated.

Answer 2

1 1/2 pounds of cheese is the same as 6 cups of shredded cheese- 1 cup weighs 4 ounces. For this and many other equivalents, see the food yield tables in the OAMC section at:

Answer 3

That depends on the type of cheese and the weight. For the calories in different types of cheese, by weight, please see the page links, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.

most block cheeses are about 3/4 cup for 8 ounces(half pound). Some are more (like feta or farmers cheese), some are less (like romana or parmesan).
