Different sources or national labels can coexist. Differences alone do not establish a change to the product.

Maker page read 2026-09-13. Back-label photos uploaded to Open Food Facts from 2025-08-22 to 2025-11-25 show the same list opening, allergen statement, Kraft Heinz Foods Company address and the same per-serving values where legible (^label2025); their right-hand panel column is cut off. The 2025 tubs are the earliest evidence of this list, not a change date.
- 2022 US label (whey protein concentrate, carob bean gum, vitamin A) supported · Compare evidence
Read from a back-label photo that also shows the UPC 0 21000 61215 4 and "© KRAFT FOODS"; a second photo uploaded 2022-09-30 shows the same list. The USDA Branded Foods record dated 2023-08-31 carries the same statement (^usda). The ingredient rows' until date is the last photo of this list, not a known change date.
- Open Food Facts typed list (xanthan gum, guar gum, sorbic acid) unconfirmed · Compare evidence
Typed by an Open Food Facts contributor; none of the photos on the record shows this list and its date is unknown. It probably reflects a label older than 2022, but that is not evidenced, so no ingredient rows are recorded for it.

About this product
Philadelphia Original Cream Cheese Spread 16 oz is a one-pound (453 g) plastic tub of spreadable cream cheese sold in the United States.[2] Kraft Heinz offers Original Cream Cheese Spread in 8, 12 and 16 oz sizes and describes it as made with fresh milk and real cream, with no artificial preservatives, flavors or dyes.[3] The back label names Kraft Heinz Foods Company of Chicago, Illinois.[4] The recipe is shorter than it used to be: a 2022 label also listed whey protein concentrate, whey, carob bean gum and vitamin A palmitate,[5] while the current list is milk and cream, salt, guar gum, natamycin and cheese culture.[3]
