Can you freeze Cheese?

In a moment of madness I bought a huge piece of Stilton.   I love the stuff, but the date is at the end of December and with all of the other cheese in the 'fridge I was wondering if it could be frozen in small pieces for a treat in January/February.

Alternatively any ideas on using it up in a way that can be saved?

Depends on the grade, but many hard cheeses can become crumbly in the freezer.

Doesn't harm the flavour but I prefer it to slice unless I'm making a sauce or a topping.

Cheers.
With a microholding you always get too much or bugger-all. (I'm fed up calling it an allotment garden - it just encourages the tidy-police).

The simple/complex split is more & more important: Simple fertilisers Poor, complex ones Good. Simple (old) poisons predictable, others (new) the opposite.
