CCF 4 LYFE (Cheesecake Factory for life) 🍰🍓 ______________________________________ In honor of #nationalcheesecakeday, I’d like to take a moment to reflect on the glory that is @cheesecakefactory’s Low Carb Cheesecake with Strawberries! 🍓🍰 now, this is NOT something I eat often. It is sweetened with @splenda and there are a decent amount of carbs despite it being “low carb.” But for an occasional treat, it’s BOMB. – What I wanted to note is the fact that there are options out there for those living a sugar-free life and watching their macros. I am SO grateful for that! I can dine out with my family and not feel like a loser for skipping the Linda’s Fudge Cake (k, have you tried it cause I die). – I usually order this with plain strawberries, no Splenda berries (they macerate them in Splenda otherwise), and get regular whipped cream versus the also sweetened. Splenda-whip. I worked there for 10 years so I know all the tricks! 😉 – Happy National Cheesecake Day and I want to thank all the tireless CCFers who are slaying today slangin’ out those half-priced cheesecakes! I salute you. 🍰😆👏🏼
