The exact number of cups in an 8-ounce bag of shredded cheese can vary slightly depending on:
1. Cheese type (e.g., cheddar, mozzarella, Monterey Jack)
2. Shredding style (e.g., fine, coarse)
3. How the cheese is packed in the bag
However, a general guideline is:
– 1 cup shredded cheese ≈ 4 ounces
– 8 ounces shredded cheese ≈ 2 cups
Keep in mind that this is an estimate, and actual values may differ slightly.
