    Been veg and vegan for a long time too and I’m use to tofutti. I sometimes use it as a mascarpone replacer or cheese cake or anything else. If you add stuff to it works, the texture is right. It does have an aftertaste though but not when it’s mixed. Too bad it’s all soy, since I’m trying to avoid it.

    Violife has been my favorite too,, although pricy. I definitely want to try wayfare.. Eating bagels and lox nearly every Sunday for decades and eating Philly cream cheese off of a spoon, I feel like an authority. Tofutti was good in a pinch, easy to find, and better priced. I like it ok but it's not as good as Violife. Miyokos cream cheese was vile. Too sour. Her butter is fabulous though. Kite hill, I don't remember why, but knew I'd never buy that one again.

    Wayfare makes my favorite sour cream, and I do like how they use butter beans, which is very different than other brands. I didn’t know Spero made a cream cheese, but I purchased their goat cheese alternative and loved it. Again, great ingredients because sunflower seeds are not as resource intensive as nuts, and it’s just different. As far as the title topic, cream cheese, no brand really makes a Philadelphia style cream cheese. For my tastes I’ve settled on a whipped blend of cultured nut cheeses like Miyoko’s or Treeline, and soft soy cheese like Tofutti or Trader Joe’s.

The wayfare is so good I literally cried, then rushed out and bought everything to make super nachos and had super nachos for the first time in as long as I can remember. I've since bought their cream cheese and it's the first I find decent enough to keep eating. They have a customer for life in me if they keep their quality up!

    Kite Hill is the best one lmao I've made a lot with it, it is tangy however that's how cream cheese typically was for me in the first place. Plus I've made a pretty noice cheesecake with it but interesting ranking overall!

    Chives can improve almost any cream cheese. Whenever you try something plain, you're flirting with disaster! Whenever I've gotten a cream cheese I didn't love, I'd chop up some chives or green onions and let it sit overnight and it's just so, so much better the next day! My favorite is TJ's, but Wayfare is hard to find in Los Angeles. I've been wanting to try it for years.

    Thanks for the taste test! My go-to has been Kite Hill. Don't mind the taste and like the texture. I've tried the TJ's and didn't like the taste... wonder if they reformulated? Also have tried the Violife, and it doesn't work as well on warm bagels... it melts a little bit like butter...

Violife is the only cream cheese I have tried this far and the flavored ones are good. I am going to try the Trader Joe's now since it is cheaper because I am frugal...I look forward to more from your channel. Dairy such as cheese, cream cheese and sour cream has been an issue for me to let go of altogether.

    We usually buy Trader Joe's because the price is always much cheaper. And I like it a lot but it tends to have a layer of water on top and be more runny than I'd like. We love Tofutti! My husband and son eat dairy and they both love it. But we also don't tend to eat it by itself. We eat it on crackers with chili or soup. Or I bake cheesecake with it.
