Fun Fact: In 1872, cream cheese was invented by American dairyman, William Lawrence of Chester, New York, who accidentally developed a method of producing cream cheese while trying to reproduce a French cheese called Neufchatel. Lawrence distributed his cream cheese in foil wrappers. He called his cheese Philadelphia Brand Cream Cheese, now a famous trademark. Kraft Cheese Company bought the brand in 1928. James L. Kraft invented pasteurized cheese in 1912, and that lead to the development of pasteurized Philadelphia Brand cream cheese. Kraft Foods still produces Philadelphia Cream Cheese, the most popular cheese used for making cheesecake today.
