lower calorie shredded cheese

I am wondering if there is shredded cheese that is lower in calories. Typically 1/4 cup is about 100 calories or more and cheese slices are usually 60 calories. Cutting up sliced cheese to add to my food sometimes doesn't taste or look the same.
Any suggestions?

    There are "light" shredded cheeses (and "light" block cheeses you can shred yourself). I prefer to eat less of a really tasty full-fat cheese--except for low-fat mozzarella as a pizza or lasagna topping, the low-fat ones never taste right to me--but I'm an admitted cheese snob. Obviously a lot of people think they're fine.
