Yes you read that right, I am indeed, a liar. If you are my mother, you have known this for years. If you are anyone else, you may have suspected as much.
You see, once upon a time, I wrote that I would, and I quote "never switch to lowfat/fat free cheese, I love it too much"
But I was wrong. I have indeed switched. The reason? Simple. I am a cheese whore. I cannot control myself around cheese. Cheese is like the ex boyfriend you know isn't any good for you but damn the sex is great, so you keep going back for more. Not that I had any boyfriends like that, all the ones who were bad for me were also bad in bed, but I imagine that is what it is like. Thats how romance novels say it is, anyway. The point being I cannot control myself around cheese. I love it too much. In my house we have one rule: Don't waste cheese. I am not kidding. Ask Brian. Ask him what the rules of the house are.
We don't waste cheese.
Now that my salacious ways with cheese have been exposed, I have done the sensible thing. I have switched over to fat free or low fat versions of cheese. Its not an item I am willing to cut out of my diet completely, I will "settle" for a lighter version simply because I cannot get over cheese. I stalk it on facebook. I wonder who that other whore is with it, I text it in the middle of the night. "Hey baby, I got some bread and some butter and I am thinking about you xoxo"
I can cut out pizza, I can give up chocolate, I can give up sugar, sweets, butter, cream, milk, yogurt, chicken, steak, etc but I can not, give up cheese.
So there you have it, my public shame. I am a cheese whore. Give me a scarlet letter if you will. I wear it proudly.

ReplyDeleteTell me its not true...you do not tell lies :>( gramma
ReplyDeleteDo you feel better getting it out there? Cuz I'm right behind you. Heck, I think I'm a bigger cheese whore than you... I've made the switch to reduced fat cheese and you know, I have the regular stuff too. I, like you am trying to change my ways.
ReplyDeleteI had my huge salad for dinner and can't even tell you how much cheese I sprinkled on top. It was goat gouda and a gift. I think you might be my sista from another mother.

OMG a fellow cheese-a-holic!! YAY! I eat like 2 slices of white american a day (and by contrast with better less healthy cheese it SUCKS) because I would rather eat crappy cheese than no cheese at all.
ReplyDeleteThere is this all-you-can-savor wine and snack thing that happens at a nearby casino every Friday night. I haven't gone since I started working on my weight but I want to go sooo bad because they have this black truffle cheese that is KILLER!
mmmmm cheeeeeeeese. :)
