What it is
Organic cream cheese is a soft, fresh cheese product made from organic cream and milk, which are fermented with a bacterial culture. It has a mild, slightly tangy flavor and a smooth, spreadable texture. The 'organic' designation means it is produced according to organic farming standards, without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, and from cows not treated with hormones or antibiotics.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use organic cream cheese to add richness, creaminess, and a tangy flavor to various food products. It functions as a base for desserts like cheesecakes, a filling for pasta dishes, and a binder or flavor enhancer in appetizers and baked goods.
Health notes
Cream cheese is a common food ingredient regulated by the FDA under standards for dairy products. As a dairy product, it contains fat, protein, and calcium. JECFA and EFSA typically evaluate food additives, not whole food ingredients like cream cheese, so they have not set an ADI for it. There are no notable controversies regarding organic cream cheese itself, beyond general dietary considerations for dairy products.
Allergen info
This ingredient is derived from milk, which is one of the nine FDA major allergens.
