I've been craving celery with Cheese Whiz but I know how awful that stuff is for you so I was wondering if anybody has any ideas of what to substitute that with? Other than hummus. Thanks!

    Peanut butter is great. It's a good source of Fiber and Protein, which will keep you fuller longer and help you burn off the weight. Its good, too. Try to get the natural kinds, without HFCS. HFCS will make you want to eat more, and if you are trying to diet, definitely not the way to go. If you don't like peanut butter, there is also ranch. You can get fat free, low calorie or any of the other kinds that might have less 'bad stuff' in them. I know one of my friends also eats salsa on her celery. Doesn't sound TOO appealing, but I like it. Worth the try! Hope this helped!!

    Thanks! I do like peanut butter on celery, almond butter should be good too! Don't think I'll try the salsa though hehe

    There is no substitute for the whiz. Have a little, enjoy it, move on.

    I found a black bean dip mix that I use with light sour cream. This dip has just a hint of spice that is wonderful with celery.

    Yum good ideas, thanks!

    I don't want to eat the Cheese Whiz because there is no nutritional value to it and it is so processed.

    Laughing Cow Cheese is great, but I can only say that because Australia doesn't HAVE Cheeze Wizz. Otherwise, I'd be all over it. But with Triskets instead of celery.

    Oooo yes Triskets with Cheese Wiz, sooo good. I love putting Cheese Wiz in Bugles, that's sooo good but soo not healthy!

    OMG, how have I not tried that? I've had Bugles with cream cheese but never made the cheeze wizz connection! I'm going to be there in May and that is going DOWN. May MFP have mercy on my soul.

    You need to try it, sooo good and it's so easy to eat the whole bag because it's so easy to spray the Cheese Wiz into the little Bugle hahahaha I could eat a million. I've never tried Bugles with cream cheese, I'll have to try that...I love cream cheese. Well you better let me know how you like it in May! :)
