Today at the clinic the nurse told me that they all just got an email about Allegro cheese. There has been a change and now we are only allowed to have it 2 to 3 times per week.

I had been having it every day this last week...gosh I love that stuff...not sure what the problem is as I've been losing. She wasn't sure either, but that's the new rule.

Very sad news

I only have a 1/2 serving at a time anyway....usually melted on nacho's. So it doesn't affect me to much.

I guess it might have to do with the sodium levels.....as we were discussing in today's weigh in thread.

I love the Allegro, and I have had weeks where I have had it everyday. Sometimes I will have half a serving for breakfast, and then half a sering on my "pizza" for dinner. That's some good stuff. I'm going to miss it if it becomes part of the processed foods list.:(

I will miss it too...it was you Bernice who introduced me to it!!! I'm glad it's still allowed a few times per week, at least we can have it now and then.

I do wonder though, is there a difference between the Allegro block and the slices? The nurse just spoke of the cheese generally, and I wonder if the slices are high in sodium while maybe the block is not (I'm secretly hoping only the slices will be restricted)? I'll ask more next visit, or if any of you reading this haven't gone to the clinic yet today please ask what that email was all about ...

I'm pretty sure the slices are the same as the block. I think I compared the nutrtionals once. On the new food list posted today it says twice per week.

Well to everyone who gets it 2 to 3 times a week... you are lucky, because i got the big BAN today (as previously advised). Some day though, like all the maintainers, I will enjoy my Allegro again! Still loosing though, so who can complain!

I'm REALLY sad to hear that because I JUST discovered it!!! I bought it today as a direct result of this board, and omg, I was in heaven. I swear to god, I thought I was going to die it was sooooooooo good.
