Then just take a food processor and grate up as much as you like. You'll have a superior grated cheese for Italian dishes. Put the excess in a shaker, and it keeps amazingly well, no cellulose or anything artificial added. Plus, I like having control of how finely I grate it. If you want it really fresh and pungent, don't pre-process it, just blend it up in a mini chopper when you need some freshly grated cheese. Personally, I like having a shaker ready to use. It's also amazingly tasty just eating it shaved.
I stored a container of food processor grated Belgioso for over two months without a hint of mold or going bad. It also retained its pungency and flavor. The bottom line, people shouldn't worry about shelf life of this cheese. It's easily as long as the expiration on the bag, and I'm telling you now, it's still good even longer than that. Try it and you'll see. Besides, you can grind as much or as little as you need, but if you are able to go through the 1.75 lb bag of shaved cheese, there's no reason not to grind some (or all of it). Personally, I find it a lot more convenient grated, but I usually only grate 1/4 to 1/2 a bag at a time. When you freshly grate it, flavor and aroma is released, like when you grind whole bean coffee at home.
It's so easy to do, once you start grating it yourself with your Cuisinart, you'll use it more often and won't go back to bottled grated cheese.
