String cheese

I buy low fat cheese to melt on top of a piece of light ww toast in the morning for breakfast sometimes.

That's the only low fat cheese I can eat.  It tastes gross to me otherwise.  I adore cheese, but I eat less of it so I can have the full fat variety.  Once in awhile some mini babybel or a piece of cheddar or (shudder with delight) a piece of Brie.

I eat small amounts and much less often thatn I would otherwise eat it - its too good, and I'm trying to lower my cholesterol.

I like the Publix brand. It was on sale and I got a huge pack. Good thing it's good!

Sargento is the BEST. Kraft mozzy string cheese is tasteless...i agree. I only buy sargento now. It sucks because a 12 pack of sargento is $3.99 and a 24 pack of kraft is only $4.49....

I like Sargento for string cheese and I also buy the Laughing Cow Light cheese. One wedge is 35 calories and I put it on a piece of Wasa Bread (3 slices for 60 calories) for breakfast or morning snack sometimes..very satisfying!

I love the Sargento brand but the Pepperjack cheese stick.  I just couldn't stomach the texture of string cheese after the surgery! The pepperjack ones saved me!

My favorite is Frigo, but I buy the regular.  The low-fat isn't as flavorful to me and has the texture of wax.  Thinking of trying the Weigh****chers smoked mozzarella sticks a try.  I figured the smoky taste would compensate for the waxy texture of the low-fat cheese.

Yum, smoked mozzarella sounds good!   I have not seen that in the local groceries.   Will have to look!

I like Sargento 2% reduced fat mozarella string cheese. I usually eat one every other day.

I like the Sargento LF ones, but more often buy the Stop & Shop LF string cheeses for cost reasons. Either way, they're better after having been forgotten in my handbag for a couple of hours. Mmmmm... melty cheese in a plastic wrapper!

Mini Babybel Light is good, too-- but sometimes too soft and I get it all over my fingers, even when I have just taken it out of the fridge.

I've tried the Laughing Cow wedges and light the light ones in Swiss and French Onion flavors, but too many fats for too few proteins for me, so I don't buy them anymore.
