I actually use this so many ways. Crab Dip- I pkg Philadelphia cream cheese, lump crab meat, Old Bay, simmer together and eat with crackers. Oh yum. Philadelphia Cream Cheese seems to add to dishes calling for cream cheese, rather than include that tart taste some have.

Love Philly cream cheese. Taste is amazing. Learned how to smoke it on a pellet smoker with everything bagel seasoning. Let me say wow this is a new staple for every party at our house. Love to buy it fresh at the grocery store but always have it laying around too. Easy to use box and foil wrap.

This cream cheese is the cream cheese that I have trusted to be used in my recipes for baking and for special dips. It always give the recipes a creamy finish and makes them taste excellent. I will be using this brand and verity for many years to come.

I love the texture Philadelphia cream cheese creates in frosting, I love the smooth texture on a freshly toasted bagel, and as a kid, we grew up eating Philadelphia cream cheese and jelly sandwiches! This is the only brand we have used and we will continue using!!

We all know that Philadelphia brand cream cheese is the go to! When I was a kid I used to sneak little spoonfuls out of the box that it used to be in so my mom would just buy me my own, lol. Philadelphia cream cheese is so creamy and tasty and really the only one I will use. You can add a spoonful to a lot of dinner recipes to make them creamier and I find it the best for making cheesecake too. [product:philadelphia-plain-cream-cheese]

I am so disappointed in the Philadelphia cream cheese these days. They are now adding carob bean gum in it and the taste is very odd. IN fact when you make cheese cake the sugar enhances the carob bean taste. It ruined my Christmas cheesecake, and made me sick to my stomach. I only put one star because I had to.

quality and value of the dairy based cheese. They mention that it makes delicious cream cheese frostings, and is a great breakfast treat. They appreciate the texture, saying that it stays creamier and softens for easy spreading.I like to make up a big plate of snacks from time to time, like for a Superbowl get together. This year, however, it was just the family together so the platter was considerably smaller but I take a package of deli ham out of the plastic package and paper towel each slice... that they aren't so moist. I then spread a layer of softened cream cheese generously on each slice. I cut up a dill pickle spear into halves and roll them up into the ham/cream cheese slice then place three tooth picks into them before cutting each into three bites. I took two platters to a gathering of about 10 people one year, probably close to 150 bite size pieces and they didn't last half an hour. There was a lot of food there so I guess they turned out to be pretty well received. Best tasting cream cheese I ever had.

Every other cream cheese just isn’t quite right compared to this! Any time I decide to try something else I am disappointed. This kind is thick and creamy. I use it on bagels and also in some recipes. I have made cream cheese frosting and used it as part of a base for a cream soup.

Besides the glorious implementation of this cream cheese on a sesame seed bagel topped with some lox and capers…. it also has some very serious uses in the baking arena. I have made a number of delicious frostings using this product, as well as whole cheesecakes. Nothing beats it!

I keep Philadelphia Original Cream Cheese in my refrigerator at all times. Whether I am adding it to my recipes or making Cream Cheese Frosting (I can eat an entire bowl of Cream Cheese Frosting!) I have purchased store brand cream cheese and they are decent but I do prefer the Philadelphia Cream Cheese...always fresh and always delicious :)
