Wonderful for bakers

Love the price

I think that this cream cheese would be perfect for a recipe in a crockpot or baking but not for using to spread on a bagel. It was too thick to eat plain and didn’t taste that good. It was also hard to spread. Using in a recipe to cook with tastes fine though especially for a large recipe. I wish it had a way to reseal the cheese. I did like how it shows measurements on it.

My local club was out of Philadelphia brand. Went ahead and picked up the store brand. Won't do that again. It's not creamy, hard to melt in the one dish I am using it in. I wanted to make a cheesecake but that's a lot of work when this stuff is not so great to start with.

This cream cheese is more akin to a a block of white Velveeta than to Philly. I'm sure it would work in cheese dips, but it makes for a poor cheesecake. Their's too much xanthum gum which gives it an oily, slimy feel instead of a thick/ homogeneous paste.

It might be a bad batch and I've only seen these 3LB blocks during the holiday. It is rubbery, I made a few pumpkin rolls and ran out of cream cheese, sams club only had these. I made more pumpkin rolls and I had a little icing left on the spatula so I licked it...it didn't even transfer onto my tongue. It almost seems waxy. You could probably wax your car with this.

I’ve made over 20 cheesecakes and always use Philadelphia, but, needed to make 2 more and tried this brand. I was skeptical and had the family do a blind taste to get their opinion. Members Mark had less flavor, was more dense and tasted like butter. I allow all ingredients come to room temperature before making and quickly realized the batter was thicker, but assumed it would be ok. The cheesecake wasn’t creamy and crumbles when you cut into it. Very disappointed with the results…. I purchased this item because Sam’s was out of Philadelphia and they stopped carrying the 3lb block of Philadelphia I used to purchase. Sam’s continues to replace good products with their Members Mark knock offs and it’s so frustrating. They did the same with replacing the 1/4 lb Nathan’s hotdogs sold at the snack bar and the Kiolbassa brand sausages as well as many other items. Attention Sam’s Club! - quit replacing good items for garbage knock offs!

It is one of the best products, yet it constantly goes out of stock. The presentation is much better, with less trash, and for someone that sometimes goes through 60lb of this cream cheese a week, it's a constant hassle to be running around trying to substitute it. Availability is the only issue because the product is great

This item was missing even though I paid for it

Additives. Read the ingredients. Very disappointed
