We love cream cheese spread. But traditional brands give you a lot of fat and almost no nutritional value. We set out to change that — here's how we stack up.
All comparisons per standard serving (2 tbsp / 30g)
A side-by-side look at Schmear'd vs. the brands you already know — per single serving (2 tbsp).

Same serving size. Dramatically different nutritional profiles.
10g per 2oz vs. the industry average of 2–4g. Real, meaningful protein from milk protein concentrate in every schmear.
4g of prebiotic fiber from chicory root per 2oz. Every competitor? Zero. You literally can't get fiber from regular cream cheese spread.
8g of fat per 2oz vs. Tillamook's 20g. Same creamy taste, dramatically less fat — because you deserve both.
The lowest calorie option on the shelf — and the only one that actually gives you something nutritional in return.
Preserved naturally with buffered vinegar and cultured skim milk. Real food preservation, not lab chemicals.
Spread a full 2oz on your bagel and you've added 10g of protein to your breakfast — that's like eating 2 eggs worth.
