This frozen snack swap is one of the most powerful you’ll make if you’re serious about fat loss or portion control. We’re comparing Woolworths Mozzarella Sticks vs Woolworths Cauliflower Bites – both frozen, both crunchy, both perfect for entertaining or snacking.

The Mozzarella Sticks pack over 300 calories per 100g and a massive 19g of fat, with a heavy dose of saturated fat. In contrast, the Cauliflower Bites come in at just 91 calories and 1g of fat. That’s a ridiculously light frozen snack for the flavour hit you still get!
Yes, you’ll sacrifice some protein, but if you’re serving multiple items on a snack plate or watching macros closely, the cauliflower option lets you eat triple the volume for the same calories – with better fibre and much less dietary fat.
This is a frozen snack or finger food swap worth locking in, especially when you’re entertaining or want to build a plate without blowing your deficit. Light, crunchy, lower-calorie bites with room left for dips, mains, or dessert? Done.
