I wouldn't cook with a cheese spread. It;ll just go to liquid. Cream cheese is completely different. You wouldnt make a cheesecake with cheese spread, but you would with cream cheese.
I actually use dairy lea ( or should I say the Lidl looky likey ) as a base for a chillie cheese sauce for pasta - it works really well But for cheesecakes - its cream cheese - philly and the likes
My fault, I should have been clearer. I wouldn't use it in a quiche.
You will sometimes see 'soft white cheese' which looks like Philadelphia but often has fewer additives than Philly. It's usually cheaper too. Sainsbury's does an organic one and Lactofree does one.
