The Philadelphia Cream Cheese Bacon flavor is something everyone will want to find in their stocking this Christmas season. Or perhaps a whole box of it under the tree, for that matter. A highly anticipated release, it shows just how mainstream people's bacon obsession has gone. Although some people might think that cream cheese bacon is a bit behind on the times, anything with these added pork bits is always welcomed.
A collaboration with Oscar Meyers, the Philadelphia Cream Cheese Bacon flavor "took 18 months for the two brands to create—striking the perfect balance without being too overpowering," writes Design Taxi. No wonder it took so long to hit the market. If the companies are entering an already saturated bacon industry, it is only natural they would want to do it right.
