Frequently Asked Questions About Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese
What is Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese?
Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese is a spreadable cream cheese made as a reduced-fat alternative to the brand’s regular cream cheese. You can use it on bread or in recipes that call for cream cheese.
Is Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese healthier than regular cream cheese?
Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese has less fat than the regular version, but that alone does not make it better for every purpose. Choose it if you prefer a lighter cream cheese; its taste and texture may be less rich.
Can Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese replace full-fat cream cheese in recipes?
Yes, Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese can replace full-fat cream cheese in many dips, sandwich fillings, and baked dishes. The finished result may be less rich, so it may not give the same creamy texture in every recipe.
Can you make frosting with Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese?
Yes, you can make frosting with Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese, though it may be softer than frosting made with full-fat cream cheese. Keep it chilled and avoid adding too much liquid if you want it to hold its shape.
How should you store Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese after opening?
Keep Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese refrigerated after opening, with the lid firmly closed. Use a clean utensil each time and follow the storage directions and use-by date printed on the package.
Can Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese be frozen?
Yes, Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese can be frozen, but thawing may leave it grainy or watery. It is usually better to use thawed cream cheese in cooked sauces or baked dishes than as a fresh spread.
Does Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese melt when heated?
Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese softens when heated, but it may not melt into a completely smooth sauce on its own. Stir it in over low heat, ideally with a little warm liquid, and avoid letting the mixture boil.
Can Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese be used in pasta sauce?
Yes, Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese works in a quick pasta sauce. Stir it into warm pasta with a splash of pasta water over low heat; boiling can make the sauce lumpy rather than creamy.
Does Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese taste different from regular cream cheese?
Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese still has the mild, tangy taste of cream cheese, but its reduced-fat formulation can make it seem less rich and creamy than the regular version. Chilling it keeps the spread firm.
Is Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese lactose-free?
No, Philadelphia Fitt Cream Cheese should not be assumed to be lactose-free. It is a dairy product and may contain lactose; people with lactose intolerance should look for a product specifically labelled lactose-free.
