It’s my go to block cream cheese. Smooth. Creamy. Full of flavor. I use it when I make my chili cheese dip. I gave it one less star because sometimes the package can be hard for me to open. Cream cheese also can get stuck to the wrapper. Minor inconvenience though.

Cream cheese is an absolute must have for some of my favorite recipes, from appetizers to desserts. (For me, it's not something I just spread plain on a bagel.) It serves as the base of the crab dip I like to make - and am now craving - and is necessary for the optional preparation of Krusteaz Lemon bars that are delicious - and I am now also craving!

The very best cream cheese their is! This cream cheese isn't like the off brands you find. You can taste the cream cheese, where as, if you try the off brands of cream cheese, they are sort of flavorless, gross mainly just really really boring. Off brand cream cheese is a total drag

Honestly it's one of the only cream cheese brands I really like. It's so creamy and smooth and tastes so good! My favorite is using it to make my chicken wing dip with. Everyone always asks me for the recipe and I tell them they have to use Philadelphia cream cheese.

The Philadelphia Original Cream Cheese Brick is a staple in my kitchen! Its creamy texture and rich taste make it perfect for both sweet and savory recipes. The 8 oz size is just right for most recipes, from cheesecakes to dips, and it spreads smoothly on bagels and toast. Unlike other brands, Philadelphia has a distinct, fresh flavor that truly stands out and feels indulgent. Whether I’m whipping it into a dessert or simply enjoying it on a cracker, it’s consistently delicious and versatile.

It tastes amazing and spreads very well, even when refrigerated. I love it with pepper jelly on crackers, on bagels, in baking, with pepperoni on a cracker, on celery sticks, in spreads I make myself for vegetables or crackers and a lot of other ways. Best cream cheese on the market!

There’s no substitute for cream cheese in our house! It’s the ONLY kind we use from homemade cheesecake to crackers and jelly. I don’t compare to others because it’s all I buy. If your buying the cheaper stuff splurge one time and get the name brand. You will find that you have been missing out!

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.

This cream cheese is a culinary gem! Its velvety texture makes it a dream for spreading on bagels, while its rich flavor takes baking to a whole new level. Whether slathered on a morning bagel or used in a decadent cheesecake, this cream cheese consistently delivers a perfect balance. A versatile delight that deserves a solid 5 stars for elevating both sweet and savory creations!

If you cut corners on a cheesecake by using "knock-off" cream cheese, I'll taste it in every bite. I won't tell you, but I won't help myself to another slice, either. This national brand is a generational favorite in our home and the family gets excited when several packs are spotted in the fridge: cheesecake night is here!
