Our take on the Great Value Fat-Free Cream Cheese Brick, 8 oz Block
Great Value Fat-Free Cream Cheese is an 8 oz brick of fat-free cream cheese sold under Walmart's house brand. It spreads on bagels and wraps and blends into dips, sauces and baked goods, with no fat and fewer calories than full-fat cream cheese. It suits shoppers watching fat intake or calories who still want a cream cheese spread. Against full-fat rivals it is thinner and less rich, and reviewers note it can turn grainy or watery when heated, so it works best as a spread or mix-in rather than a straight substitute in cooked dishes.
- Fat-free with fewer calories than regular cream cheese
