September 27, 2008 Reviewer: Melissa in Pennsylvania |
| This product is much appreciated when one is on the Atkins 1000 calorie fat fast :). It's flavor is pretty neutral (yet refreshing) but lighter than heavy cream, but for 10 calories per tablespoon and no carbs--and once you've mixed it into whatever it is you choose--one can hardly make a distinction. The consistency/appearance differs more from heavy cream--it is more of a blue-ish gray hue and is a lot thicker, but, like cream, gets thinner if it's heated. I'm telling you though, BUY THIS PRODUCT! Even if my description concerns you, when you actually try it you'll wonder how you ever got along without it. The options for this are many:
use one part Mimicreme to one part heavy cream in Dixie Diner's Mousse Mix (makes the mousse around 135 cals as opposed to over 200 for a 1/2 cup); use 1 teaspoon butter(or none at all) with 2 or 3 tsp mimicreme for an alfredo sauce/ or sweeten with erythritol and use to enhance the Cinnamunch pork rinds by Flax-Z-Snax; add to Walden Farms zero-calorie products to make them more satisfying and "fatty" (esp. the peanut spread--mimicreme makes it divine!);
-Mocha-coffee drink with mmc and water, erythritol, and unsweetened cocoa;
-"Ice cream" with Walden Farms marshmallow dip, mmc, a little heavy cream, sweetener, vanilla extract, and marscapone. Enjoy! |

| Creamy, nutty, buttery, goodness. Much thicker than regular cream and Almond Milk and only 10 calories for 1 tbsp of the unsweetened. I use it in soups, sauces, ICE CREAM!!, chai tea, etc. Give it a go! |

| I have been looking for a healthier alternative to 1/2 and 1/2, which I am guilty of using too much of. This product met my expectations. It is creamy and has the consistency of heavy cream. It should be shaken every time it is used to mix any particles that have fallen to the bottom. It mixes well in coffee. It may look curdled when you first pour it in but will disappear when stirred. I also pour it on my cereal. It has a grayish hue; to be expected from a natural product. I love it! |

| On a visual scale it looks pretty scary BUT it tastes wonderful. Have been using soy milk -- and half & half when I cheat. But his tastes so GREAT I won't have to cheat again. Love it. |

| OMG, I just made ice cream with this, and FINALLY, something WITHOUT animal fat with 80% less calories than heavy cream, which taste FABULOUS, and I mean, I can't taste the difference from full fat ice cream. Now I made a custard based recipe with 3 eggs, & a full cup of good quality cocoa.
I've read the reviews about: "blue color" & "lumpy/chunky consistency". I shook the package as directed and opened it, and tried it for the first time by the spoonful. It was NOT blue, NOR was it lumpy. Mine was a very light off white, which I would expect since it's nut base. But the texture & flavor is incredible is smooth and yummy.
Give it a try, all you have to lose is the animal fat & about 80% of the calories. You won't be disappointed. |
