My Honest Review of the New Dill Pickle Laughing Cow Cheese

If 2025 taught us anything, it’s that the public’s passion for pickle-flavored products knows no bounds. In fact, we devoted an entire category in our annual Sporked Awards to the best dill pickle-flavored product, and it’s looking like we might have to do the same this year because the pickle snacks keep coming. Like this one: The Laughing Cow Dill Pickle flavored cheese wedges. Move over, dill havarti. There’s a creamier, pickle-ier cheese in town.

The Laughing Cow Dill Pickle Cheese Wedges

The Laughing Cow

Pros: Well, this definitely tastes like creamy dill pickle-flavored cheese. It’s not just that there’s dill in the mix—there’s a distinct brininess that makes this different from other creamy, dilly cheeses. I smeared this on rice crackers, but it would be really good on bagel chips with smoked salmon. A nice little low calorie canape situation (one wedge is just 25 calories). As a person who is always looking for low cal snacks that aren’t lame, I truly appreciate that the Laughing Cow is always innovating (even if their innovations are unhinged sometimes).

Cons: There’s a sweetness to Laughing Cow cheese—which is cheddar, in this instance—that doesn’t totally blend with the briny flavor profile. It’s subtle, but worth mentioning. Still, if your curiosity gets the better of you and you buy a wheel of these little wedges, they won’t go uneaten. Promise.

About the Author

Howdy! I’m Gwynedd, Sporked’s managing editor. I live in Los Angeles and have access to the best tacos the U.S. has to offer—but I’m a sucker for a crunchy Old El Paso taco night every now and then. I’ve been at Sporked since 2022 and I’m still searching frozen mozzarella sticks that can hold a candle to restaurant sticks. Why you should trust me: I’ve been a journalist for 20 years (yikes), a consumer of food for 40-plus years, and I’m truly hard pressed to think of foods I don’t like (or that I can’t tolerate at the very least). Oh and one time I cooked my way through Guy Fieri’s cookbook and wrote about the journey through Flavortown. What I buy every week: Trader Joe’s Original Savory Thins. Fat free plain yogurt (usually Fage or Nancy’s). Honeycrisp apples. Sweet cream coffee creamer for my at-home Americanos. A frozen cauliflower crust pizza and some jarred mushrooms to top it with. Old El Paso Stand ‘N Stuff taco shells and Gardein Ground Be’f, even though I think “be’f” is a nightmarish contraction. Favorite ranking: Stouffer’s frozen dinners. I don’t own a microwave (I get my cancers the old fashioned way!), so I love taste testing things that I don’t really buy to eat at home. Least favorite ranking: Soy sauce. Don’t get me wrong, I love soy sauce—but consuming that much sodium in one sitting is probably illegal in some countries. Our frozen enchilada taste test was a close second; the smell of microwaved corn tortillas still haunts me.
