Inspired by Dee's cheese soup recipe, I tried the Velveeta Lite with a little bit of hesitation - after all, I HATE those diet foods that taste "diet", you know? But, I have to say, that light Velveeta is awfully good stuff, just as good as the original (I don't notice any difference between the two) and healthier to boot!
I have a similar experience with the Orowheat Light (not low-carb, but light) bread - I've tried light breads before and disliked the fact that you can hold it up in front of your face and see through it. This stuff isn't that bad, though - it's still smaller than a "normal" slice of bread, but the flavor is good and it holds up pretty well when you spread condiments on it. And, again, for less calories, fat, etc... it gets the job done very well.
So, my question to you is, what products do you find that help you - they don't necessarily need to be "diet" products, but just food that you enjoy (it's got to be good - ) that is also helpful for those of us in pursuit of a healthier diet? I don't want to have to keep buying duds before I find the brands that've got it right!
