    Milk. I'd rather drink less of it that drink more skim.

    Turkey pepperoni. Bought it once, never again. Cardboard has more flavor.

    This is how I feel about Turkey Bacon... I can do just about any other form of turkey, but this... is unnatural.

    The first time I really dieted, my goals were 1200 calories a day and 20 grams of fat. It was the early 2000's and everyone thought fat was the worse thing - even healthy fats like olive oil and avocados. I ate turkey bacon/pepperoni then and it was kind of ok but when I gave up on going that low on fat I never looked back at either of those. I'm good with turkey sausage and even ground turkey in recipes that have enough seasoning to mask the lack of flavor in the meat.

    It's funny, I vastly prefer full fat sour cream and yogurt, but my day to day cheese is reduced fat. It still melts fine, texture is okay, tastes like cheese. Now fat-free cheese is an abomination. I do use full fat parmesan (and not from the green shaker, people!) routinely. I use half and half (real) and don't really drink milk anymore. We use Jif or Skippy "natural" PB in my house. Copious amounts of it. I like that it tastes almost exactly like the stir in oil PB, without the mess of stir in oil

    The only fat free food I will eat is greek yogurt. Full fat is just to rich

    Ranch dressing, it just tastes so different from what I am expecting.

    If I am going to eat or drink something plain, full fat / the real stuff.
    If I am going to mix with something else and that something else will provide the taste / flavour, calories are king and I go for the lowest possible.

    Yes that is a good point.

    I eat cheese as a stand alone product so it matters that it is the one I like.

    anything with sour cream or mayo or milk it is added to something else, not a product I eat on its own - so the difference in taste isnt noticeable anyway.

    I don't mind midium fat things like semi skimmed milk, low fat mayo (the very low fat is disgusting), low fat yoghurt but not the fat free.

    Full fat cottage cheese always....mainly because there is no such thing as good tasting 0% cottage cheese. I can not say the same about greek yogurt though (plenty of good zero fat greek yogurts, even plain flavored!)

    Zero fat cheese =/= real food...doesn't even know how to melt correctly (it's a chemical abomination & a poor excuse for "food")

    Interesting, I like the reduced fat or low fat cottage cheese. Non fat, I think would be gross.

    I'll buy Cabot's full fat cottage cheese when the store is out of fat-free and really don't notice a different in the taste.

    I won't buy low fat hard cheese or mayo.

    Anything. Milk, cheese, ice cream. Low fat dairy is the devil.

    Processed meats... turkey bacon is nasty and low fat sausage tastes like smoked salty nothing.
    I try to limit those kind of foods in my diet anyway, so if i'm going to indulge in bacon or bratwurst maybe 4-5 times a year, I'm going to have the real good stuff.

    I wont do reduced fat nut butters either. Nut fats are very good for you.

    I don’t do low fat anything. It’s almost always processed with extra sugar added.

    I don't mind 2% or even 1% cheese, but fat free cheese is just wrong. I can definitely tell the difference with light and nonfat sour creams but for some reason don't mind those.

    I've been burned by "lite" blue cheese myself, only you're smarter than I am because I've done it more than once.

    I'm fine with low fat dairy products but I can't choose the leanest cut of meat. I find it too dry and boring. So for mince for example I will go for 15% fat rather than 5%, I need some juices!

    I am so damn happy I gave up nonfat stuff. I've always eaten standard mayonnaise. However, over the last eight or so years we started eating standard yogurt, whole milk, all the butter (and good stuff, too), and I'm never looking back. My father is stuck in the whole fat is evil thing, so he drinks 1% and looks down on the fact that I eat Juanita's chips, because they taste amazing ("You know they have a LOT more fat, don't you?!").

    I'm not a milk drinker so 2% works fine for cooking. I've never used whole milk - so maybe I don't know what I'm missing :smile:

    Low fat sour cream is a no no for me. In Canada it's like milk jello. No thanks. I'd rather use Greek Yogurt or the real full fat sour cream.

    I won't drink full fat milk. Or eat ice cream. I mean I shouldn't because I'm lactose intolerant but still.

    I refuse to eat fat free or low fat mayonaise, any type of cheese, ice cream and salad dressing. Those are my cheat foods. I still measure out quantity, grams, calories, etc. But I just can't deny myself those foods.

    The Kraft mayo made with avocado oil is good. It tastes pretty close to regular, IMO. Not as salty, though. I can't do low fat cheese any more.

    I won’t give up my full fat French vanilla coffee creamer. I just use less now.
    I eat light cheese whenever I can & yogurt, sour cream. I also like the half the fat mayonnaise.
    I prefer light though vs no fat
