What it’s for: Anything you would use regular cream cheese for, such as bagels, waffles, dressings, casseroles, and other recipes that list cream cheese as an ingredient.
What’s good about it: Tastes sensational, and it’s non hydrogenated!
What’s bad about it: Still have to be careful of the calories.
It’s better than: Tofutti “Better Than Cream Cheese” containing partially hydrogenated oils.
It’s not as good as: Philadephia brand Cream Cheese tastes even better, but hey, “Better Than Cream Cheese” is better for your body and your bones!
Why I use this product: The body needs natural oils for the essential fatty acids that are used in “almost every major organ, in cell membrane production, and immune system function.” Hydrogenated oils are not natural. Hydrogenated oils are molecularly changed oils that are toxic to the body. They are so toxic that scores of research studies have concluded that hydrogenated oils are “Silent Killers” that dramatically increase the risk of coronary heart disease, breast cancer, other types of cancer, diabetes type II, and auto immune diseases, as well as autism and food allergies. To read more about this ubiquitous danger to our health, check out columnist David Lawrence Dewey’s article, “Hydrogenated Oils-Silent Killers,” at http://dldewey.com/hydroil.htm.
Best place to get it: I buy this product at my local health food store.
