Does anything slimline taste better than the full fat version.

Just having moan really. Lighter butter, lighter philedelphia, lighter cheese, non of them taste anywhere near as good as the original. I also cannot bear the taste if sweetener in drinks. Currently trying to lose a bit of weight and I am doinh OK but really missing an indulgent treat.

The no added sugar/reduced sugar and salt baked beans are way nicer than the standard ones. Just had normal ones in the work canteen and they are bizarrely sweet!

Urgh, I hate them. Dh bought the low sugar ones by mistake and I thought my sense of taste must have gone funny due to covid. There was a bitter aftertaste. Horrible. I'd prefer to have a smaller portion of beans than eat them again.

I could start a whole new thread about how everything is 'lighter' and 'low/lower fat' while at the same time being stuffed with unnecessary added sugar, even savoury dishes (chilli con carne, anyone?) where sugar has absolutely no place at all.
