Who Doesn't USE Cream Cheese

Philadelphia Original Cream Cheese is one of my favorites. It has a rich, creamy texture and a smooth, delicious flavor that works great on bagels, toast, and crackers. I also use it for cooking and baking because it blends easily and gives recipes a nice, creamy taste.

Please Return to Original Ingredients

This used to be the only brand I'd buy, but ever since gums have been added, it no longer works in recipes. I don't care if the FDA approves of gums, they taste bad and literally muck up recipes. From cheesecake to frostings, every recipe turns out gooey instead of light and fluffy. So disappointing.

    Best taste!

    I love adding Philadelphia cream cheese to my bagels then adding avocado on top! It makes the perfect breakfast! The packaging is simple and easy to break into when needing.

    Any cream cheese is

    Any cream cheese is good, but Philadelphia brand cream cheese is the best. It has such a creamy, rich flavor. It's perfect to eat it with toast or bagels. It's also great for making cheesecakes and cookies and cream truffles.

    I love bagels and cream cheese, one of my favorite fast breakfast foods. Always very filling, and if course I love to put a good amount of cream cheese.

    Creamy

    I love cream cheese for several reasons. Cheesecake, bagel and cream cheese and adding it in several dinners like crack chicken. Adds so much flavor and Philadelphia is the best brand

    Best tasting

    We always have it in our refrigerator. Very good on bagels, waffles, desserts and I use it for the sushi bake. Also like whipped version too. Best tasting.

    This brand matters!

    I have tried every store brand and other brands of cream cheese. NONE compare. Whether it's used on a bagel, making a cheesecake or an Alfredo sauce… go with quality every time.

    This type of cream

    This type of cream cheese goes very far and is used a lot in my house. Not only is it used for bagels it's also used for cheesecakes or any type of recipe that calls for cream cheese .

    You can taste the difference between philadelphia cream cheese and store brand. Philadelphia cream cheese has a creamier texture and its made with real quality ingredients. Its a little pricey but totally worth the price.

    The texture and paste

     I prefer this brand because of the texture in the taste. I bought other brands and it just doesn't seem to taste as good as this brand. It's great on my bagels.

    A staple in my home!!

    This stuff rocks. It's extremely versatile and can go in so many dishes. Texture and taste are incredible. The consistency is as well (I've never had a bad batch!!). Packaging is a little challenging to open, but I always manage. 10/10 😭🤌

    For some reason I love the taste of Philadelphia block cream cheese better than other brands I've tried. I also feel like the block is easier to cook/ bake with than the tubs are. Overall a staple in my diet

    The Best…

    It sounds silly to say that there is a difference in cream cheese brands but there really is. Philly Cream Cheese is the creamiest and tastiest of any I have tried.

    Creamy cream cheese

    I love Philadelphia cream cheese! You can make so many things with it and it tastes great! I love using it especially for dips because it gives that creamy texture! Definitely worth buying the name brand Philadelphia than the other brands!

    Perfection! I am lactose intolerant but sometimes I give into temptation and I'll have myself a bagel with cream cheese and bacon. Or I'll make cheese cake using this product. Can be a little pricy but just look for a great sale.

    One of my favorite cream cheeses. They have several flavors and all are really good. Super easy to spread on anything you want and had a smooth, rich taste. I also feel like I never run out whenever I'm using these tubs lol

    Swear by this brand

    This is the only brand of cream cheese my mom and I will ever buy. We normally get off brands of a lot of things, but we will never compromise when it comes to Philadelphia!

    Yum

    Best tasting cream cheese around. The texture is dense but smooth. Light but fulfilling with a great consistency to spread over any treat you'd like.

    The Only Cream Cheese For Me!!!

    Whether it's being used on bagels, desserts, or dinners, this is the best cream cheese. I love the taste and smoothness. Other brands of cream cheese never capture the flavor and texture I desire. Always a winner in my house!
