Meijer Cream Cheese Spread

Breakdown

1 ingredient to avoid

Meijer Cream Cheese Spread scores 91/100 on Tallow — our clean band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Meijer Cream Cheese Spread lists 12 ingredients, starting with Pasteurized Milk and Cream, Water, Salt, Cheese Culture and Chives. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 91/100 Meijer Cream Cheese Spread sits in our top band, among the better butter & cream we have scored. A higher-scoring option in butter & cream is Simple Truth Organic Half & Half Milk & Cream at 100/100.
