More of a dip than a spread
This has the consistency of thick cream rather than any soft cheese I have had before. It goes well with tortilla chips as a dip though.

Prefer to buy low fat/low sugar versions of everything but this product is watery and slushy compared to full fat version - won't buy it again.
Bland
No taste what so ever
Don't buy!
Not nice and very runny! :( Much better own-brand equivalent at other retaillers.

Runny and tasteless, as if the garlic and herbs are merely a suggestion. Maybe a full-fat version would be better, but you don't do it! Worth spending the extra on real Philly methinks. Won't buy again.

To put this into context, I would like to say 2 things: I am v grateful to Tesco for offering me delivery slots (literally the only supermarket to do so - and i really, really looked around!), so many thanks there Tesco; second, this was a substitution that, i thought, looked fine. Well, at the risk of being blunt, it's a truly horrible product. When I opened it, it was runny, which initially made me think it had gone off (and when I gave it to my teens without any warning, they had the same response). But it wasn't off, it was well within date, nice and cool, and the seal was intact. In addition to the gloopiness, the taste was, well the kindest thing i can say is, not like cream cheese. And it smelt overwhelmingly of garlic, almost like it was some kind of garlic with spread with 'cheese'. We put it in smoked salmon sandwiches hoping it would be masked that way but it was so bad we scraped the 'cheese' off and threw the rest of the tub away. (From recall, even my husband didn't eat it, and he's really unfussy) Anyway, the main reason i am writing this review is to warn people to avoid it but also just because it's just so laughably bad! I have tried many other own-brand products via my online shop that are new to me and they have all been fine, and some have been excellent. But this stuff, well, don't say you haven't been warned :)
Taste is OK
Agree with previous reviewer, taste is OK but texture poor due to being watery.
