Izzy0525 14 Posted June 7, 2012 I went to try melted cheese for the first tome today, purchased the fat Free mozz and cheddar....nothing cheezy about it, didn't even melt properly. What are you guys using? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cassieh 136 Posted June 7, 2012 I am over 2 months out and my fav is sharp cheddar (regular). Some may disagree but it works for me. I dont melt it but I slice it and eat it for a snack.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3lilrams 37 Posted June 7, 2012 Melted cheese doesn't go over too well on me....So, I usually stick to low fat sharp cheddar, or low fat colby...I just eat it as a snack....the sargento cheese sticks are my fav! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foxbins 625 Posted June 7, 2012 I eat the low-fat. The non-fat tastes like plastic and the full fat is too greasy for me. Low fat is juuussst right! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mews 37 Posted June 7, 2012 Considering that I eat so little, I go with regular cheese. Manufacturers put so much junk into foods to make up for the loss of taste when the fat is lowered/removed. If you are going to melt cheese, go with the regular. I grew up on low-fat/non-fat cheese and it always reminded me of melted plastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Izzy0525 14 Posted June 7, 2012 Melted plastic is exactly what it reminds me of! I'm going for the low Fat to snack and regular to melt...I only consume a very small amount melted so the taste would help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
O.T.R. sleever 3,386 Posted June 7, 2012 Just remember yellow cheeses have a higher fat content. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alliegb3 112 Posted June 7, 2012 Low or full fat. Non fat just don't do it for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Izzy0525 14 Posted June 7, 2012 Great tip with the yellow cheeses, thanks Can't wait to go back to store and get some real cheese Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Catracks 865 Posted June 7, 2012 I eat full fat cheese too except for the Baby Bell Light and the Laughing Cow wedge. Those I like. All other cheeses are regular and I eat a huge variety of it from Wednesleydale to Havarti to sharp cheddar. The best melting cheddar is Longhorn and sometimes hard to find. 1 littlebits reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DuranFan1969 119 Posted June 7, 2012 My NUT told us that we shouldn't be using fat free anything because they usually compensate with a lot of sugar. I've done low fat cheeses and they melt pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimmy*custis 276 Posted June 7, 2012 Low fat as far as mozzarella but regular with all the rest, I am only eating a ounce at a time so I want the good stuff! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
