    I like to smear this on cucumber slices and top with a piece of deli turkey and some sprouts. So delicious and ridiculously filling.

    Someone also comment on MFP last week that they mash steamed cauliflower (in place of potatoes) and mix this in. I can't wait to try that!

    I love sprouts. I love turkey. I love cucumber. I love everything about this.

    It is soft cream cheese, so, yes.

    If I had to describe it, definitely like softened cream cheese. It spreads like butter, and tastes really creamy.
    I will try it!

    That's a steal - $1 per pack?! They're usually $3.99 where I live. :(

    Yep! They were on sale for $2.50/each recently, and my $.75/one coupon doubled. I'm hoping they're still at that price, since it was a pretty long sale for them!

    OMG, so trying that (I'll have to add my own garlic and herbs, see above for Australia's lack of flavoured LCC whinge)

    I buy the unseasoned ones at Costco, and there are enough to last a long time at a bargain price. My favorite use: spread on Ak-Mak crackers, (or grahams if you prefer) top with a tiny spread of All-fruit preserves, and you have a pseudo-cheesecake to have with tea.

    I'm enjoying the Skinny Cow divine-filled chocolates (caramel) as we speak. Heavenly!! I do love the cheese and pretty much everything else Skinny Cow makes!

    They are soft like cream cheese. My favorite is queso fresco chipotle. I have one almost every morning on a mini bagel.

    That sounds so good...my store only carries original, light original, and the one in my OP. I should see if they can special order more flavors!

    I buy these every time I go to the store. Sometimes they're sold out, and I have a weird existential crisis trying to figure out what I should do.

    How come everyone else has these fun flavors? I only get two to choose from at my store!

    I have all of these ingredients in my kitchen right now, and I need to do this. Thanks!

    Same. When I can get them cheap I'll load up. And the Aldi version just isn't as good. :neutral_face:
