The Worst Philadelphia Cream Cheese To Slather On Your Bagels
BY James Andersen
We judged the flavor and texture of 10 kinds of Philadelphia cream cheese spreads to find out what works best atop a bagel and found whipped mixed berry to be the worst.
It proved too sweet and similar to yogurt, taste-wise, rather than ordinary cream cheese. In short, it's a flavor that works better for dessert than a bagel.
Philadelphia cream cheeses are lighter than traditional dense cream cheese, which is a plus. However, we found fruit flavors too sweet and better suited for desserts.
