About Full-fat cream cheese

Full-fat cream cheese is a rich, spreadable dairy product made from a mixture of milk and cream. Originating from the United States in the late 19th century, it has become a staple in cuisines worldwide, particularly in baking, cooking, and as a topping for bagels or crackers. It is smooth, mildly tangy, and contains about 33% milk fat, giving it its creamy texture and indulgent flavor. Nutritionally, full-fat cream cheese is a source of calcium and vitamin A, which support bone health and eye function. However, it is also high in saturated fat and calories, making moderation key for a balanced diet. While not ideal for heart-healthy diets, its rich consistency and versatility make it a popular ingredient in both savory and sweet dishes, such as cheesecakes, dips, and frostings. Always check labels for additives or preservatives in store-bought varieties.
