I tried “lite” blue cheese dressing tonight - never again!0

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!0

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?!").0

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 missing0

cheese is the big one for me.0

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.0

I won't drink full fat milk. Or eat ice cream. I mean I shouldn't because I'm lactose intolerant but still.1

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.1 -
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 fat0 -
Milk, because that kinda defeats the purpose of fortifying it with Vitamin D (since Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin).0

Hard cheese (there is a specific brand of reduced fat cream cheese that I like), yogurt, Greek yogurt, and ice cream. Most dairy products, really. Reduced fat milk is fine for some reason, so that's what I drink. My full fat foods are very similar to yours. I can do low fat mayo, but only a specific brand that I can't always find. When I don't have it, I eat full fat mayo.
I eat these foods not because they're my cheat foods, but because if I didn't, I would feel like I'm wasting my (fewer) calories on something I don't enjoy as much. I dislike the feeling of wasting calories, so I only eat things that taste good to me. Same goes for cauliflower rice and any food imitations that don't work for me. I like artificial sweeteners in drinks (not baked goods), so that's what I use when I want to sweeten a drink and choose diet drinks when I buy them.
I don't stubbornly shun all things commonly called "diet foods" because "I refuse to diet" or something, I just eat what I like and don't eat what I don't like. If I like something that is lower in calories just the same, why not have it instead of the higher calorie alternative? When I make an omelet, removing a yolk in exchange for more cheese is a good deal calorie and taste-wise, so I do that. When I make sunny side up, all yolks stay because that's the best part.3 -
and in this situation, you will also find that the full-cream strawberry yoghurt also has added sugar anyway.
I am fine with any low-fat products and normally prefer the taste anyway. That way I have extra calories for things I enjoy. I get plenty of fat in my diet from nuts and the like which I really like which makes it a win/win for me.1 -
Reduced far Peanut Butter. It doesn't actually have less calories than regular peanut butter. They just remove natural healthy fats and replace it with processed carb filler.1
-
Hard cheese and homemade chocolate ice cream (I tried substituting single cream in the recipe for a while, before finally acknowledging it just didn't taste as good or freeze as well, compared to double cream).
For things like Greek yoghurt and cottage cheese, I actually prefer the taste of the lower fat versions by far (and the brands I get don't have added sugar to 'compensate') - so the lower calorie count and higher protein % is a bonus0 -
I won't drink skimmed (no fat) milk. I don't mind semi-skimmed (2%) (although I prefer whole 4%), but for me skimmed milk tastes like slightly odd water.
And I like proper butter, I don't mind spreadable versions, but I'm not going to low fat spreads. I'd rather less of the real stuff.
I am giving reduced fat cheddar a try, although it's 30% less fat, not really low, I know you can get 50% less fat ones.0 -
Since going on a budget, my calories have become precious and need to be as delicious as possible. So, full fat everything, full sugar everything. I also strongly prefer fattier cuts of meat and poultry. Good thing I'm not a volume eater.0
-
The only reason we drink/use 1% milk is because I grew up in a 2% household and my husband grew up in a skim-milk home. This is our compromise.0

Fat free cream cheese. Read the ingredient list. Chemicals are not food. Any foods with sawdust (cellulose) or sand or glass (silica) added.8

But all food is made up of a bunch of chemicals... when did chemicals become a catch all for anything and everything that someone thinks is "bad"? Cellulose is plant fiber, it's also in every fruit and vegetable and is perfectly safe to eat. Silica is also in whole grain breads, oats, and a variety of fruits and vegatables. It's a naturally occurring element used for many different things. It being in your food in no way means you're munching down on sand or glass...7
