My kids are a little on the picky side so trying new things always seem to be a challenge. I am always looking for a way to find a healthy alternative for my family so I grabbed some Kraft Philadelphia 1/3 Less Fat Cream Cheese. I made my children's breakfast and they had no idea that it was a little different from the regular cream cheese. It has the same great creamy taste, but it's healthier for us.

Kraft is definitely one of the top brands in my home. For as long as I can remember I have been familiar with the brand and it's products. As far as it's classic - Philadelphia cream cheese and it's many flavor varieties, I have only taken to two or three of them. I was initially introduced to Kraft Philadelphia 1/3 Less Fat Cream Cheese variety by my local grocer who was giving samples of the cream cheese on small bagel pieces. At first I thought I'd skip it because I was already familiar with cream cheese. Then, I noticed it was a reduced at variety so I was a little curious. To tell you the truth, I didn't notice any extreme difference in the taste. The texture wasn't very different either. It had a slightly thicker consistency to it. I ended up buying some and feel pretty good about making a healthier decision for myself and my family. Also, I used this reduced fat variety in a cheese cake recipe and it worked out great as well. No one could tell I swapped it out.

Kraft Philadelphia 1/3 Less Fat Cream Cheese is like a clone of the regular, full-fat version! I find this so appealing. There is nothing better than a cream cheese frosting, a cream cheese dip, or just plain cream cheese on a bagel! This is a great alternative and saves so many fat and calories. Like most people, I like to watch my waistline. Thanks to Kraft Philadelphia 1/3 Less Fat Cream Cheese, I can now do this all while still enjoying the foods I love. The texture is the same as the original, which is hard to match when you take out some fat. I just love this product!

I have a terrible confession to make.  Actually, I have probably accumulated my full share of things to confess but one of the most embarrassing is that I am one of those weird people who don't like cream cheese!  I have told myself that Kraft Philadelphia Cream Cheese deserves my highest esteem and that everybody else (apparently) is lapping it up with gusto but the fact remains that -- unless it is mixed with something else or employed as an ingredient for the greater good -- **I'm just not a fan**.  Then along came ***Kraft Philadelphia Reduced Fat Cream Cheese*** and I figured I would give it a try.  After all, my major complaint about the famous white stuff beloved to bagel fans everywhere is that -- aside from a taste that I couldn't quite get used to -- I thought it was actually **TOO** rich.  I envisioned this new version as being something whipped to a light almost frothy creaminess.  Alas, someone has done a wonderful job of producing a cream cheese which is exactly like the original but with a third less fat. **STATS:** Two tablespoons constitute a single serving which contains 70 calories with 50 calories from fat.  There are six grams Total Fat, 3.5 grams Saturated Fat, zero Trans Ft, 20 mg. Cholesterol, 140 mg. Sodium, 2 grams each Total Carbs and Sugars, and 2 grams Protein.  Also included are 8% (D.V.) Vitamin A and 4% Calcium. **MY VIEWPOINT:** **Cream Cheese Lovers of the World unite!**  You are probably going to like this new advanced dairy "delight" every bit as much as you did the original.  As far as I could see, the two products are almost identical and I'm still not crazy about either of them BUT cautious experimentation has revealed that there is something to be said for  a "*schmear*" of ***Kraft Philadelphia Reduced Fat Cream Cheese*** spread on warm whole grain toast and topped a thin layer of [Smucker's Sugar-Free Jam][1] .  I'll concede that much.       [1]: http://www.viewpoints.com/Smuckers-Sugar-Free-Seedless-Blackberry-Jam-review-c6bd5

I am not much of a breakfast person, but I do love bagels, especially with this **Philadelphia 1/3 Less Fat Soft Cream Cheese**.  If I hadn't seen the package and knew it was less fat than regular cream cheese, I wouldn't have noticed a different.  The texture is thick and creamy and it has a great cream cheese taste.  The cream cheese spreads easily on bagels, and also tastes great on crackers.  The plain has a lot of flavor and works well in desserts too.  This is a great way to make your breakfast bagel a little healthier and not sacrifice taste when you take away the fat.

I received my coupon and went right down to get the Philadelphia Cream Cheese Tomato and Basil, I baked a refrigerated pizza crust and spread it over the top with some scallions and then had to fight my husband off till it was snack time. I will be getting it again very soon. Thank you

Philadelphia 1/3 Less Fat Soft Cream Cheese is a yummy alternative to the other rich Cream Cheese spreads beside it on the shelf.  Terrific on bagels and croissants.  Don't feel so guilty eating this kind.

I love cream cheese, I just LOVE it.  I can go through a whole thing of **Philadelphia Cream Cheese** on one bagel if I didn't think it would be very bad for me!  My mom once brought home fat free Philadelphia - and I hated it.  I also tried Whipped Philadelphia a few times, and felt like it was not creamy enough.  So at work when I had the opportunity to try **Philadelphia 1/3 Less Fat Cream Cheese**, I was worried I wouldn't like it, but gave it a try anyway. **It taste the same as Regular Philadelphia!**Trust me, I know what regular cream cheese tastes like, and I know that when I eat this 1/3 less fat version I cannot tell the difference.  It's still creamy, it's still yummy, it's still cream cheesy!  There might be a minor difference but it's so minor that it doesn't disappoint me at all.  I still feel like I had a satisfying meal after eating this. **Nutrition: 1/3 Less Fat, but what about the rest?**I haven't had a regular container of Cream Cheese in the house for awhile, so I can't remember how much fat and calories were in that.  However this 1/3 less fat version seems healthier regardless.  It has 5g of fat, 70 calories, 2g carbs and 2g protein for a 2 tbsp serving.  This really isn't all that bad!  You still shouldn't eat cheese non-stop, but at least you cut out some fat by eating this. **In the end, you won't know the difference**No one else will know the difference either.  We make a lot of desserts with philly brick cream cheese, and now I will use the 1/3 less fat version.  I know they will never know the difference, and I won't tell them.  If you love regular Philadelphia cream cheese, then why not give this a try.  You'll get the same good taste, with less of the unhealthy stuff.  Enjoy!
