Think: pizza, quesadillas, twice baked potatoes, enchiladas, etc. Cheese is also great to sprinkle on soups, salads, and breads. AND grated cheese is the perfect food for toddlers just learning to eat. Cheese is just plain good.
We use our graters so often (almost every day) that we have three different ones. Excessive? Maybe. But we actually put them all to pretty good use.
Could you use a new grater? Or a second one?
Check out this sleek, stylish, and functional Box Grater ($14.99) from OXO International. It comes with a “a storage container with non-slip ring, measurement markings, and a lid for catching and storing your freshly grated ingredients.”
If you’re more of a parmesan-cheese-on-soup or grated-chocolate-on-sundae type of person, you’ll probably be drawn to the Seal & Store Rotary Grinder ($14.99), also from OXO International.
If you’re in the market for a grater that is reliable and inexpensive, OXO is a great way to go. You can purchase the graters online or at a store near you.

Another great one, Stephanie! I SO agree that cheese is just the best. I love to make so many things with cheese, from simply adding some to scrambled eggs or a quiche in the morning to putting it on top of a sandwhich, soup, or chicken for dinner!
Hard to say which I would like better, but I’ll say the Box Grater because I have to choose one!
I’d agree with you, but I’d expand that statement to: All the best foods have cheese or chocolate in them. And the few with both, like chocolate cheesecake?! Heaven!
Love the “holder” on the bottom of the box grater. AWESOME IDEA! That would come in very handy.
And count me in on the chocolate shavings too. Yummmmy!
box grater for sure!! cheese makes everything better!! thanks
Cheese does make anything better (well chocolate too), love them both but if I have to pick I would pick the Seal & Store Rotary Grinder (I would put chcolate shavings on everything, well desserts at least
Cheese is definitely one of my favorite foods. I love all kinds, as is, melted, fondue style, shredded…it all tastes fabulous to me! I’ve been meaning to replace my box grater so that would be the one for me!
I agree that cheese is good on almost everything.
Chocolate is even better! I would like the Seal and
Store Rotary Grinder if I win. Thanks for the great
giveaway!
Rotary Grinder! So great! (tee hee…great grate!)
I like the rotary grinder better – I could walk around the table using it just like they do at restaurants!
The seal and Store Rotary Grinder would be my choice – easy grating for quick meals.
Box grater for me!
The Seal and Store rotary Grinder is nice but the Box grater will get more use in my house.
Seal & Store Rotary Grinder
Box graters are wonderful not just for cheese, but things like grating carrots for spaghetti sauce instead of sugar. And leave it to OXO to make it even easier.
i am old fashioned i like the box grater
I’d love the seal and store rotary grinder. It suits my needs.
I love the box grater. It keeps the cheese from flying
I Could definitely use the box grater. Thanks!
We love cheese and these gadgets would make so much more simple and fun. Thank you!
Seal & Store Rotary Grinder, I think. Looks cool.
I would love both, but since i have to choose, I will have to say the Seal and Store Rotary Grinder. My family loves cheese!! Whenever we are looking for a snack…we usually pull out the block of cheese with some olives or deli meat..Cheese is sooo good:)LOL
Automatic grater looks great
I love the box grater. Looks like the kind my mom and grandmother had, but with the added convenience of the “catcher” box. Cheese goes best in everything!!!
Rotary!!!
rotary grater by a long shot
seal and store grinder.
The box grater is my preference.
The rotary grater would be a nice change to the standard box grinder I always use
I would say about 99.9% of all wonderful foods contain cheese! I’d love to have the box grater – having a box at the bottom to hold the cheese is brilliant.
Definitely the box one, I love that it has a container on the bottom for the foods! GREAT idea for when grating some kinds of cheeses! I hope I win it!
I LOVE OXO products! Would love to own the Seal & Store Rotary Grinder!!
I like the Seal & Store Rotary Grinder for cheese.
I think I’d like the seal & store rotary grater only because I already have a boxgrater. Thanks for a great giveaway!
I like the Box Grater. I think the nice wide base will help me to keep it steady.

I love the Rotary Grinder design
Hands-down, OXO makes the best quality kitchen tools and toys. But, they are not just in the kitchen! I have some OXO handtools, and they are incredibly well-designed and well-made, just like their kitchen ware. I’d buy OXO anything, and these two items look fantastic. And I love freshly grated Pecorino Romana, nothing beats locatelli!
The Box Grater is my choice. Thank for the contest!
I love freshly grated cheese and would love to grate some with the Box Grater!

I’d love the box grater. Just yesterday I was wishing I had one to grate carrots instead of having to pull out the mini food processor.
I am an OXO Box Grater girl myself.
I’m trying to keep my jaw from totally dropping! (what cool products!) I am sooo right there with you. We love, love, love cheese! Especially strong flavored, but not-too-stinky cheese. The boxed grater is a wonderful invention! My product designer hubby would be thoroughly impressed :) How fab that the cheese doesn’t get everywhere, and it won’t sleep on the countertop. But, I’d certianly love a chance to try either. thanks!
…and keep the great recipes coming!
Love the prizes, but would have to go with the rotary one. Thanks for hosting this contest.

I would love the box grater. We have a rotary grater that the husband puts to great use, as my hands have a touch too much arthritis in them!

I’d love the box grater – my grater is so old, and is one of those ones that you lay over a bowl, I always cut myself on it lol. If I don’t win this one, maybe I should ask for one for Mother’s Day hmm?
I could really use a new box grater.
I’d love the Seal and store rotary grinder!
Happy Monday! Our family loves cheese. Plain, almost any type, in casseroles and such! My husband really enjoys cooking and loves cooking gadgets. We do not have the “Seal and Store Rotary Grinder.” Please enter me in your drawing. Many thanks,Cindi
I love both, but the rotary grinder would be more useful to me.
Thanks
I prefer the rotary grinder.
I’m a super cheese lover. I have a friend whose husband dislikes cheese and I am very sad for her. I’ve become lazy about grating cheese and usually buy the already shredded version and I’ve never bought a whole chunk of Parmesan so it would be fun to have the seal and store grater.
I’d love to have a rotary grater. Thanks!
I’d love the rotary grinder! I could pretend I’m the server at a restaurant when I ask hubby if he’d like cheese with his meal.
I already have a similar box grater and its great for measuring.
I would like the rotary grater because I already have box grater.

Box grater for me!
Love the rotary grater.
I would love the box grater….I could use it for vegetables also!
I definitely prefer the rotary grater. I already own the box style and I am forever scraping my fingers! The rotary grater looks so easy and safe from my clumsiness.
The rotary grater is my favorite — perfect for grated parm on salads and pasta. Yum!
I could use this because I use a knife.
I really need a grater!
I think that box grater is pretty neat. I don’t have one, and sure could use one.
The box grater just looks cooler, we don’t have one so this would be cool!
I too love cheese and eat it on most everything. I really like the box grater, but anything from OXO is great.
Thanks.
Kim
I could really use a new box grater, this one looks great!
From my previous comment you can pretty much bet on the fact that my culinary skills are seriously lacking. All that to say I think that a rotary grater is in order so I don’t hurt myself with it!
I love cheese, so either of these items would come in very handy, but I would choose the Box Grater. Thanks for the contest.
I have an old, old grater that should really be thrown out, so I could really use a new box grater.
I would love to have a box grater since I put cheese on everything and the grater would really help me out. Thanks.
The box grater please. My daughter loves cherry tomatoes with grated parmesan.
I don’t own a grater and would love to own the Box Grater. We usually just end up buying shredded choose from the store so this would be neat to have.
No, it’s not just you! Cheese is the best. I’d love to have the rotary grater…it’d make a great addition to my kitchen, and I’m sure my husband will like chocolate shavings on his cold drink – I will too! Yum.
I could so use this
I’d certainly take either, but as my hubby likes shredded parmesan, he’d love it if I won the rotary grinder. I’d love to try the chocolate, too… :) gumbi1313 at msn dot com
The grater with the nonslip container at the bottom is an awesome idea. I always end up having my grater over a paper plate or something like that, and its sliding all around and it takes forever to get stuff shredded. Great giveaway!
I would love the box grater! We use our graters so much we have to buy a new one every two or three months!
Prefer the box grater – more versatile for me!
The box grater looks great. I normally grate things on a plate it does not work so well, this is handy dandy!
The box grater would be great for cheese for our go-to meal — tortilla soup.
A nice box grater would be nice to have!
I love both kinds of graters but my favorite is the Box Grater. It would really come in handy since I love cheeses, especially parmesan on my spaghetti & pizza.

I’d love the box grater. My boys are into Mac and Cheese and they love to help.
What a great giveaway. I could use the box grater because I like to always great my own cheese instead of buying the packaged shredded cheese. THanks.
I’ll pick the Rotary Grinder
Me and my husband love cheeses. This would be great. Please enter me, thank you
Both the grater and grinder sound like they would be very handy. I am always grating cheese, what a hassel it can be sometimes. But I don’t own a grinder, so would pick that. Thanks for the giveaway!
The box grater! I have the other kind now, but my family had the box kind as child and I prefer and am used to the other grater.
Rotary
I am a big fan of OXO products myself. I would love the box grater.
Nothing like cheese to make a meal delicious. I love OXO stuff and would love that cheesy box grater.
i hope i win
Box Grater is my favorite.
I have had in the past something similar to the Seal & Store Grater, and I just LOVE that one best! Less likely to scrap my fingers.
The Seal and Store Rotary Grater is my favorite, but all of Oxo’s products are terrific.
the box grater. Even after all these years, I’ve never had one! lol
How GRATE!!!!!!!
Great giveaway! Count me in. bebemiqui82(at)yahoo(dot)com
I have needed a grater ever since I forgot to put it on my wedding registry! The OXO stuff is great, too – all my other utensils are OXO. The box grater would serve many purposes and would be awesome to win!
I have the box grater and use it all the time. I really would like a Seal & Store Rotary Grinder
I’d prefer the box grater but would appreciate and use either one.
Good luck!
The box grater for sure, so clever!!
I would have to say my fave would be the store & seal rotary grinder.

I would love to win this for my older brother. He loves to cook and bake and his birthday is coming sooooonnnnn!!!!! ;-) Thanks.
The box grater. Mine is getting dull and beat up looking. :)
Cheese is my favorite food in the whole world. I would love the box grater.
It’s not just you…cheese makes a meal! (I think ;) Both graters look lovely…but I’ve never owned a rotary grater before, so I think I’d have to go for that one.

Either one would be wonderful but since I have to choose ——umm, the Seal & Store rotary grinder.
I’d prefer the Seal & Store rotary grinder. I used to have one, lost it, and I miss it!
I like the Seal & Store Rotary Grinder because my fingers are doing the typing and they don’t appreciate my slicing off little pieces of them when I use my box grater. So I can say I like the box grater better, but they’re the ones doing the typing :-)
Seal & Store Rotary Grinder
I really love rotary graters. They have them in the Italian restaurant where I go, and I asked the waitress if I could try it. It would be great to have one at home!
I’d love the rotary grinder – we go through so much Parmesan in this house, and I never buy it pre-grated!
The rotary grinder for me since we already have (and love) the box grater. Thanks for another great contest.
The box grater. I am always cutting myself on the grater I have, since it just a flat one. If I won, it would prevent unnecessary blood shed.

I love anything Oxo and the Seal & Store Rotary grater would be terrific. I toss parmesan on just about everything and I love the idea that I can always have some freshly grated, waiting for me in the refrigerator after an exhausting day.

I recently made chicken enchiladas, but the recipe was just a little bit different. I will try yours soon. I use cheese in a majority of my meals and for appetizers. I have a so-so box grater, but I have never owned a rotary one. I love it when you go to a reataurant and they use the rotary grater right at your table! Being able to store cheese in the grater is terrific!!! Thanks for the opportunity to participate in this useful giveaway!
The rotary one for sure, I have a habit of getting a little ‘knucke meat’ in my food with a box grater. LOL!
I love the rotary kind!
The box grater looks like it would be faster and my wife always has me do the grating but I agree with Linda, I don’t like cutting myself.

Cool cooking items! I love both of them! Thanks for the giveaway!
I would love the box grater. My box grater somehow split down the side. I am always using cheese and my husband is so finicky. It has to be grated (no large pieces!) I love cheese no matter how it is served.
Can’t beat the traditional box grater! Living in Wisconsin, cheese is one of the original food groups. You can live without a lot of things.. cheese is not one of them.
Love the box grater and ours has seen better days. We grate lots of cheese living in the Dairy State.
I’ve only had a box graters…so I’ll go with what I know.
I like the rotary grater. I had one once (not this brand) and it broke. I miss it.
I would like the OXO International seal & store rotary grinder.
I like the styling of the Box Grater from OXO International. It looks quite sleek and very user friendly.

I really like oxo brand products, they are very well made and will last a life time.
I really like that xo grater and it’s something I need, too.
We love cheese in our house and some of the cheeses get quite hard. My old grater was getting dull so I replaced it with one from the 99 cent store. The old saying, “You get what you pay for.”, still holds true. Help!!
My grater is getting sold old and has a crack in the handle so I would love the Box Grater.
I’d love to have the Seal & Store Rotary Grinder. A few turns and the cheese is a cloud over my favorite Mexican dip.
I would love the seal and store rotary grater! I do not have a cheese grater but I’ve always wanted one!
I like the Seal & Store Rotary Grinder. Have always wanted one of them. Are so nice to use with fresh cheese.
I’d choose the rotary grater. It reminds me of the one’s they use at Olive Garden and they have the best salads.
I’ll say the Box Grater.
