It's $8 for a 12 oz. tub of Philadelphia brand but $1.50 for an 8 oz foil-wrapped blocked of the generic. For years now I've been buying the generic blocks and packing them into old Philadelphia tubs because my parents insist on the name brand. They've never said a word about it. I'm sure you could make your own whipped cream cheese with a food processor. permalink fedilink source parent
