Is Philadelphia Cream Cheese suitable for vegetarians?

Here's why:

* Ingredients: The main ingredients in Philadelphia Cream Cheese are milk, cream, and cheese cultures. None of these ingredients are derived from animals that are traditionally considered off-limits for vegetarians.

* Rennet: Some cheese uses animal-derived rennet (an enzyme that helps curdle milk) in its production. However, Philadelphia Cream Cheese uses microbial rennet, which is derived from microorganisms and is therefore vegetarian-friendly.

However, it's always best to check the specific ingredients list on the packaging. This is because some flavors or varieties of Philadelphia Cream Cheese may contain ingredients like gelatin which is derived from animal collagen and not vegetarian.

If you're unsure, it's always best to contact the manufacturer directly to confirm.
