Personally, I have always been a fan of Philadelphia cream cheese. So I wanted to try this spinach and artichoke cream cheese spread to see how well it carried on the tradition of Philadelphia cream cheese. But I was quite disappointed. I tried using it both as a topping for bagels and as a topping for crackers on a meat/cheese/cracker tray. It had a nice consistency and texture, very similar to regular cream cheese. It was easy to spread over the crackers and bagels. But both times, I was very disappointed in the taste. It just had an odd and unpleasant taste that also left a very bad aftertaste in the mouth. It didn't taste much like artichoke or spinach or a combination of the two. I could identify the normal cream cheese taste, but the other flavors mixed in did not provide a good mixture at all. When using something like cream cheese, I am looking to enjoy a good taste rather than find nutritional benefit, since it is not very healthy. So the one thing I was looking for was good taste, and this didn't measure up. I don't plan to buy it again.

I'd like to make a confession, I have a major sweet tooth. So whenever I have a bagel I usually reach for the cream cheese that emulates candy a bit, like strawberry cream cheese! Sometimes however, when I'm tired of the usual strawberry sweetness on my bagel, I switch it up to the Kraft Philadelphia Spinach & Artichoke Cream Cheese Spread. Combine that with some fresh tomatoes on my bagel, and I have a delicious bagel on the go that tastes like I got it from a bakery. This cream cheese is around the same price as the other flavors too, so it isn't too expensive, even though it has a more refined taste. I'd recommend this cream cheese to anyone who is tired of the same old cream cheese!

I use cream cheese often whether I am baking with it or just eating it like it is with crackers or a bagel. I was so excited to see that Philadelphia cream cheese had come out with a new flavor, spinach & artichoke. This spread is very tasty and would pair well with many things. You should give this a try.

I originally bought this product to spread on crackers and vegetables at a party and I liked it so much I now buy it just to find new ways to include in my recipes. We recenlty had a Halloween party and had the Kraft Philadelphia Spinach & Artichoke Cream Cheese Spread with orange and black food coloring spread on vegetables and bread tray. Kraft has recipes on their website with ways to add these products to other foods. My kids and husband love this as a snack and it it healthier for them than cheese dip or other spreads. They even offer other flavors and low fat versions. My favorite way to use this spread is to use as a marinade on top of my baked chicken or in any kind of pasta. Taste great and spreads on easily. Very afforadable and can be found in your local dairy section at any grocery store. Kraft is a very well known brand and has gained my trust of having high quality products. I would recommend to others to use this product and check out their website for weight management recipes.

I absolutely love it on a onion bagel! The cream cheese doesn't over power the taste of the artichoke and spinach, it's a nice mix. Definitely addicting! You could probably pair it with crackers or your favorite veggies, I'd suggest carrots or cauliflower. If you'd like to eat it with chips, pick a strong flavored one, maybe barbecue. Pairing it with pasta? Stick with a cream sauce, just my opinion. I think a red sauce would drown out the cream cheese. Finally, a sandwich...with hearty wheat bread, the cream cheese, cranberry sauce, sliced cucumbers and turkey. Trust me it is sooo good!

We love this product, but can't find it at the grocery stores lately. why not?? very good spread on Triscuits or buttery crackers, bagels or just used as a dip. Seems like we find something we love and before long it is no longer available. Help me find this....hopefully it hasn't been discontinued.

I don't like cream cheese at all. When I was told about the Spinach and Artichoke flavor, I had to try it since I love the dip so much! My son and I could not stop eating it! It tasted as good as the dip! I will be buying more soon!

I was certainly not disappointed in the new Kraft Spinach and Artichoke Cream Cheese Spread. It was so creamy and loaded with spinach. Even when taken directly from the refrigerator it spread like softened butter. It was asolutely delicious, and eaten on mini bagels in a flash. I have to rush now and go out and buy more!

Kraft Philadelphia Spinach & Artichoke Cream Cheese Spread is pretty tasty - just a touch too "artichokey" for me - that's why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. Guess I was expecting more spinach. Anyway, I tried it on Wheat Thins and regular Ritz and I think it overpowered them a bit, but it was GREAT on Triscuits! I think the "bulkiness" of the Triscuits even cut the "artichokiness" a bit which made it tastier to me. This would be a great appetizer too. Especially a "grab and go" one if you need a last minute something to pick up and take to a party or gathering. I think it would be a big hit!
