Cheese spreads are versatile and can be used for a variety of dishes, from salads to desserts. However, while this product appears to be light and healthy, it is not. Only a small part of the ingredients it contains are of natural origin. The rest are stabilizers and preservatives. In addition, this product contains a large amount of saturated fats, which have been linked to several health problems, such as cancer and atherosclerosis.
