Founders Story:

The Cheese Chopper is the brainchild of entrepreneur Tate Koenig. Mr.Koenig, who also calls himself Mr. Cheese, invented The Cheese Chopper to bring a drastic change in the way we slice, grate, and store cheese.

Ending up with mess was too common when you work on slicing cheese. Even Grating can leave residues around one’s kitchen. Not to forget the numerous throwaway plastic containers and wrappers that cheese is stored in clutter up the fridge and make it dirty. Koenig brought on The Cheese Chopper to resolve all these problems with one solution.

The Chopper, which fits a standard 2-pound block of cheese, keeps it airtight and safe, along an easy way to grate or slice it. The gadget requires minimal effort to clean. Grater and slicers provided within the box are very easy to wash that one won’t even scrape their fingers like cleaning a box grater.
