    Perfectly creamy

    The only cream cheese I will buy! Spreads well over bagels without breaking apart and has just the right amount of sweetness and saltiness that you would want in a creem cheese.

    Who doesn't love philidalphia cream cheese

    The Philadelphia Original Cream Cheese Spread is an absolute staple in my kitchen, delivering a consistently rich, smooth, and tangy flavor every single time. It strikes the perfect balance—rich enough to feel like a treat, but perfectly spreadable straight out of the fridge without tearing up softer breads or bagels. Beyond breakfast, it is incredibly versatile for cooking, easily melting into creamy pasta sauces or serving as a quick base for dips. It has a fresh, clean taste with no artificial preservatives, making it a reliable crowd-pleaser that I always keep stocked.

    Su consistencia para varias recetas

    I love using all Philadelphia products because of the flavor it gives to the meals. I love making stuffed chilies because of the consistency of a recipe that I share on my social network tiktok. Its aroma is not so strong and I like that for my child who does not like the smells of food so much, a bar lasts me for several dishes.

    Delicious and reliable

    When we get cream cheese for bagels this is our go to! The garden vegetable flavor mixed with an everything bagel leaves very little to be desired. The packaging keeps things fresh and the lid seals tight.

    Expiring fresh cream cheese

    Very bad, expiring in less than two days. I ordered on 10/15 evening and the cream cheese expires on 10/17. Picker should’ve picked one that doesn’t expire so soon

    Dependable Taste

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Always a dependable taste even for original. Product is great on bagels but also great to cook with when a little extra creaminess is desired and also to tame down spice when too much is added.

    Digestive issues for me from the carob bean gum that's been added

    It contains carob bean gum which can cause stomach issues. The manufacturers can save money and cheapen their product by adding it give a slick, gummy chemical taste and feel. I would pay the extra money they save from adding it when I buy if they would only leave it out

    The best

    I’ve used Philadelphia reduced fat cream cheese for many many years.  it is delicious on a bagel, but I also cook with it..  I love the tubs, which makes it easier when I’m eating a bagel.
