Not Kosher for Passover
**Not kosher for Passover.**
Philadelphia Cream Cheese contains kitniyot-derived ingredients like corn syrup or starch (e.g., modified food starch from corn), which Ashkenazi Jews avoid during Passover. Even plain varieties lack specific Passover certification (e.g., no OU-P or OK-P symbols), and dairy products must be explicitly certified to ensure no chametz or kitniyot contamination. Check labels for Passover versions if available.
