The Cream Cheese Stands Alone

On a normal weekday, I will combine this...

With this..

To enjoy this..

It's as American as blue berry pie..

(Yes, Blueberry Pie, not Apple. But that's another pos..t)

It's easy to make, delicious, nutritious, and get's the day off to a spectacular start.

I then pour my coffee, and head out to face the world.

But today, due to the zero egg producton from my pet Chicken, I had to find an alternative.

And that alternative was a Lender's Onion Bagel.

And now we come to the point of this post...

Usually I'd slab on butter or jelly. But I was really craving cream cheese. Not any cream cheese, though. Philadelphia Cream Cheese.

And there it was.

Being from Philly, I am biased to almost any argument involving any kind of food native to the City of Brotherly Love.

But there are a few for which there are no arguments:

First and formost cheese steaks.

No one comes close.

We also have the best soft pretzels,

tap water,

and snack cakes.

And I think it is mandatory to add cream cheese to this list.

The thick, rich, creamy, and easily spreadable consistency tops all other cream cheeses up and down the east coast, and beyond.

Philadelphia. Not just the City of Brotherly Love, but The City of Delicious Food.

Oh yea, I don't really have a pet chicken.
