Philadelphia is seen as a cheap product in Canada, similar category as Cheese Wizz etc.

I have one rn in he fridge. It's "cream cheese product" because probably cannot put "cream cheese" in the name. It's made from Canadian milk, not imported.

In Canada Philadelphia is made from Canadian milk.

However i try to avoid ultra-transformed products like cheez-whiz and philadelphia. Those are not even allowed to be called "cheese" here, they must have some qualifier in front or after the word.

In Canada It’s made with Canadian milk.

There’s also other brands of cream cheese.
