Dont go crazy with these because the serving size is only one melba round with 1 1/2 teaspoons cheddar spread. They do pack 40% fat, so theyre what I consider a special occasion food. I promise you, this doesnt sit in my fridge on a daily basis just waiting to tempt me because over the course of a few days, I could easily eat the whole thing its that yummo! I only prepare this when friends are coming over. You can enjoy it too dont get me wrong just dont eat mindlessly only eat a few.
Having said all that, this spread is much better for you than most kick-off foods youll find at a typical party and some days are just about cutting loose a little
