People are only now realizing that their cheese graters have a secret function
A WOMAN has left everyone stunned after revealing the hidden function of her cheese grater.
Sasha says she always ruins her block of cheese when she tries to cut nice, thin slices with a knife.
When she saw a trick online to get perfect slices using a hidden function on a traditional grater, she had to try it.
Sasha went to TikTok to document how she tested the hack, using the lines on the side of the triangular grater.
“I never realized that this would slide here and it would be a perfect…” she said.
Sasha then exclaimed, “No way. Oh my God!”
The clip showed her sliding the block over the drawers before removing the slices from the inside of the grater.
“I’m shocked,” she concluded.
“Okay, am I the last to know or what?! Game changer!” Sasha captioned her video.
“What did you think that side was for…..?!” someone responded.
To which Sasha replied, “Honestly, I never noticed it before, until today!”
“I’ve never used that side either,” another confessed.
“I’m 56 and I didn’t know that, haha,” said someone else.
“49 years old and I never knew that!” wrote another.
“We only discovered that recently too,” said someone else.
“I am shocked to my core, I had no idea this was what this was for!!” admitted another.
To which Sasha replied, “I’m glad I’m not the only one!”
“I also used a vegetable peeler, it’s much easier,” someone else suggested.
But other people reacted sarcastically to Sasha’s video, claiming they had known about it for years.
“Wait. The cheese slicer cuts cheese? I’m shocked. Shocked, I tell you!” wrote one.

“It’s called a cheese grater,” added another.
“Why wouldn’t it cut the cheese on all sides?”
“What rock have people been living under?” a third wondered.
“What’s next? Are you going to use the kettle to boil water?” someone else asked.
