My brother in law used to own a pizza shop, and he said the same thing. The price fluctuated a lot, and many times the water content was so high it was difficult to grate easily even with a commercial grater. It was just soggy and hard to use. And he wasn't even worried about nutritional quality or additives!
If I hear of anything or run across anything that can help you I will post it right away. I hope the situation doesn't get worse... but then I guess that's why we're here on this thread.

The package that I am working on now, would not be grateable. [Yes, I invent words and then mis-spell them]
The price sounds about right, all Scott tells me is it has gone up, LOL, he does not want to hear me moan and order him to buy more store brands.
I am forced to buy cheap and he is one of those ‘name brand’ buyers.
But I control myself, as without him, I would not be able to eat or get supplies.
