I'm having a very difficult time locating low-fat cheese. :cheese: There is, of course, always mozzarella. However, besides the lite Swiss that I've only found at a few locations; well, I'm coming up empty-handed on low-fat cheese.:halfempty Any suggestions? :dunno:
P.S. I like the Laughing Cow lite :T and I've tried the Soy cheese slices. :barf:

I get FF herbed Feta and it is AWESOME. It is in section of my grocery where the top shelf cheeses are kept. It costs about $5 for a block but is totally worth it.

I also use FF Cream Cheese and LF Cottage Cheese often.

Parmesean can be gotten LF as well.

Can ya tell I love cheese?

Kraft makes low fat cheeses called 2%. You should be able to get them in Albertsons.

At Sam's Club (and probably Costco) you can get Cabot brand 50% light cheddar cheese. It is very good.

Solus - are you in a big city? I live in a small town and our grocery store has very little selection of fat free cheeses. I think Kraft shredded cheddar and mozzarellla is about it. They do carry some low fat Sargento. They have a bit more reduced fat choices but I haven't found any parmasean. Is that the real stuff or that powdered type from Kraft? I usually go for the real stuff. Your fat free herbed Feta sounds wonderful! Is there a name brand on it (address/web site better yet)? Maybe I could find a store that sells it near by.

Bless you, MaintenanceMomma! :angel: I will be heading to Costco for that Cabot brand 50% Light Cheddar! :cheese:
I guess I should have clarified in my original post, that I really need help finding low-fat and fat-free cheese that can be shredded and used in recipes. :o ;)
