Our take on the Philadelphia Cream Cheese Spread, Original, 8 oz

Philadelphia Original Cream Cheese Spread is a soft, spreadable cream cheese in an 8 oz tub, made with fresh milk and real cream and no artificial preservatives, flavors or dyes. It spreads straight from the fridge, so it suits bagels, toast, wraps and sauces without the softening step a block needs. Against blocks and store-brand tubs, it trades a little firmness and structure for convenience; reviewers consistently rate its creamy texture and tangy dairy flavor above most rivals. It is the default tub for everyday spreading, though bakers who need a firm block for frosting or cheesecake should look elsewhere.
