Re: cream cheese
Philadelphia is great as is the cheap versions. Check the labels and make sure they are the same.

Re: cream cheese
I use Philadenphia too... it's about the only cream cheese you can get here, aside from mascarpone.Before and after:

Re: cream cheese
I am with Philadelphia as well. It was rated number one cream cheese by ATK as well. With that recommendation, it's definitely good enough for me.Kent - 35-M-6'4"

Re: cream cheese
I usually use my local supermarket's own brand of cream cheese which has half the carbs of philadelphia's version. Check labels to see what other brands list.Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

Re: cream cheese
re: stalling....
No one can guarantee that a food will not stall you. Each of us has a tolerance for different foods. Since I've been on this board, I've read members who had problems (cravings, weight loss stoppages) by Splenda, celery, broccoli, cheese---all kinds and brands, diet sodas, etc.
The key is to not over-indulge, be mindful of portion sizes, and always watch how your body reacts to a food.

Re: cream cheese
I did a test of all the supermarkets in the UK to see who's was the best!! Sainsbury's came top - really nice and under 50p so a huge saving on phili! Marks and Spencers went too sloppy when mixed with the splenda and didnt taste very good, Asda's was a little too hard, but that came in second place, and third place went to Tesco!!!
I had lots of fun testing!!!
