DawnM Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 We got a Sara Lee cheesecake to take to Chinese New Year. There was so much food there (potluck) that most of it did not get eaten. I brought it home. Honestly, it isn't that good as a cheesecake, so I have been spreading it on my bagels in the morning. It doesn't seem that much different than cream cheese and jam to me, but DH thinks it is really weird. And I don't care if you think it is weird, I own it and love it, so this isn't a JAWM. And yes, I am well aware of the fat, sugar, and calories I am consuming and how it isn't the healthiest option, blah, blah, blah. 😂 20 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emba Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Well, I only like my bagels savory, for some reason, so I wouldn’t care for it, but I know that I’m pretty weird in that. My family members eat jam on bagels and sweeter bagel flavors like blueberry and cinnamon swirl all the time, so to them I’m sure it would sound great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katy Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 If you compare the calories ounce for ounce, it’s probably the same as flavored cream cheese. My mom once freaked out over us eating peanut butter oatmeal cookies for breakfast until she compared the nutritional information. The cookie had less sugar and more protein and fiber than instant oatmeal packets OR our favorite breakfast cereals. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homemade, including crust. Significantly more nutrition and less sugar than many typical breakfast options. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirty ethel rackham Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Sounds brilliant to me. Dh thought it was weird that I used my leftover homemade whole berry cranberry sauce as jelly for my toast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carol in Cal. Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 See, my husband thinks I’m weird because I like liverwurst on crackers for breakfast sometimes. And he’s right, but it IS awfully good, though weird. You do you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This! and as far as health, I'd just be eating the cheesecake for breakfast - at least you added in the bagel! (I love to eat cream cheese on graham crackers, so I'm not judging at all) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
