Default Re: No whiz left in the cheese

.
Well, there is a wonderfully "interesting" product in the USA called Cheese Whiz. It even has its own entry in Wikipedia. For some reason many people seem to like it --- but I've always thought it tasted pretty awful.

Your expression sounds to me like it means "not interesting or exciting anymore" or possibly "not energetic anymore".
.
What context did you hear/read it in? Maybe someone just wanted to say that some cheese had gone bad.
