About ORGANIC CREAM CHEESE SPREAD
Meijer Organic Cream Cheese Spread is a certified organic soft cream cheese product from the Meijer brand, the Grand Rapids, Michigan-based Midwest supercenter chain. The formulation includes organic pasteurized milk and cream, organic whey, cheese culture, salt, and organic carob bean gum. The inclusion of organic whey distinguishes this from the block cream cheese (ID 1925166) and contributes to the softer, more spreadable consistency typical of cream cheese spread products. Carob bean gum (locust bean gum) is the natural stabilizer.
At 300 calories per 100 grams with 30 grams of fat, 6.67 grams each of protein and carbohydrates, and no fiber, this spread is slightly lower in calories and fat than the block cream cheese, reflecting the whey addition which dilutes the cream-to-milk ratio slightly. The texture is designed to spread directly from the refrigerator without softening, making it more convenient than block cream cheese for everyday use.
Dairy is the primary allergen, present via milk, cream, and whey. No soy, wheat, eggs, nuts, sesame, HFCS, artificial colors, flavors, TBHQ, BHA, or PHOs are present. All dairy and gum ingredients are certified organic. This cream cheese spread is appropriate for bagels, toast, crackers, dips, and light baking applications. The organic certification positions it as a premium everyday spread for consumers who seek certified organic dairy products in convenient, ready-to-spread format.
