You misunderstand me.  I, under no circumstances would ever eat dried 
mozzarella (and I don't mean dried per se, but not in its natural 
juices and grated).  But, it is readily available in our supermarkets 
and some of the appallingly bad pizza chain restaurants use it.  I'm 
with Neil, some of the individual restaurants (usually Italian owned) 
are the places to get good pizza in the UK.

By the way, the Americans can hardly preach to us about cheese.  All 
your stuff is pastuerised, and has the texture and taste of rubber.
