Default Spreadable cheese wrapped in wedges

Is Laughing Cow cheese the only cheese that comes that way any more?

When I was a kid there were several providers. It makes a good Euro-style
breakfast.

Boursin.

Notice they spell it "gournet". You can buy it in wedges, you can buy
it in tubs.

<sigh> Since when does pricey = better? I don't think of spreadable
cheese as fancy. I can blend herbs and garlic into cream cheese or
neufchatel and make spreadable cheese. The OP asked about spreadable
cheese in wedges. I suggested an option: Boursin. What's your problem?

It's easy enough to make boursin at home. I've never eaten Laughing
Cow... it's a breakfast food? Cream cheese is spreadble and I don't
buy individually packaged cheeses, so it works for me. Those
mini-babybels come in different "flavors". They aren't spreadable,
but so what. They're real cheese. http://mini-babybel.com/products/

Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them.

Sorry, never heard of it, never bought it. Don't care if they're
re-launching it.
