Easy to make, only three ingrediants; milk, lemon, salt

[DIYVanLifer]

Oh No!!
I’m so glad I had stocked up on a year’s supply of cream cheese!!🥯

Oh my god! What ever will America do there's no cream cheese. Seriously ?

[davidbowman]

I can already make my own whipping cream and butter. Just one more item to learn how to make.

[juliering]

Make your own! It's easy with lemon juice, whole milk, and salt.

[Tumbleweedin]

WTF? That makes no sense what so ever.

[StrangerThanFiction]

do know this Jesus Christ died for sinners including you, on the cross with his own blood for your personal sins, repent and get saved or perish with the lost wicked world. God's word is coming to pass, it will only go downhill.

All communist societies have shortages, who should democrat communism be any different?

The word "shortages" sums up joe Biden's presidency

[Mr-Chick]

Everyone MALE has the ability to make it.

This is an ad for cream cheese. I’m not buying it. 🤣

[mikethemechanic]

Have not seen the big tub of cream cheese at Costco In weeks. The same price you pay at Costco gets you a little tub at the grocery store..

[sweetbriarfarm]

Oh for heaven’s sake. Buy generic or Neufchâtel. No shortage in northern PA!!

Now this story is the straw that broke the camels back

[nhutchins]

You can only give the same excuses so long before people start to figure out there is more going on. I keep reading cyber hackers. I may not be Einstein, but I would think cyber hackers would be hacking for cash, not disruptions in cream cheese.

[codybuchanan]

thats it, this pandemic has gone too far

[antoinetbd]

Call out the National guard..invoke defense act !!! Where's our leadership?....gasp

[MyMysaysFU]

Wait! I though Joe Snow just said today that shelves weren’t empty…ls he confused or what? 🤣🇺🇸

[susanjordan]

No cream cheese in my neck of the woods. I enjoy whipped variety only one they had at my local stores was jalapeño, no thanks!

[Pheebe.Dee.]

Cream cheese on a bagel 🥯? A creamy butter 🧈 would taste better. What about mixing whipping cream, lemon/vanilla and a pinch of salt?
