The Laughing Cow Light Spreadable Original Swiss Cheese Flavor Wedges
Whatever the combination, The Laughing Cow Light has a clear winner with this one, and a new favorite of mine. This cheese is soft, with a mild delicate cheese flavor. It may look like cream cheese, but the flavor is more like a combination of mild cheddar and swiss cheeses. The best thing is that this cheese is spreadable and good on any sandwich and great on bagels, which is one of the two ways I love to use this cheese. The other way is to dip a finger in the cheese and just eat it straight, a la kid style. The next best thing about this light cheese is the nutrition. Just 35 calories per wedge, and 2 grams of total fat, and 1 gram of saturated fat. You also get a little protein and calcium. The regular, holey swiss cheese is about 70 calories with 5 grams of fat and 3 grams of saturated fat (from The Calorie Lab). The price for The Laughing Cow Light, is around $3.00 for the round container with 8 wedges. So let's summarize the things we love about this cheese: the name, Laughing Cow, the packaging, the taste, the nutrition, and the logo - a red cow with earrings which look suspiciously like the round container. Do we need to say we are giving this two thumbs up? And thanks France for bringing us this cheese Taste:

They are delish! Laughing Cow's Gourmet Cheese and Baguettes are great as a quick snack, too. I tried the Onion Poppyseed. Very flavorful.
