The bigger TIL for me is that Philadelphia Cream Cheese invented cream cheese
In 1872 William Lawrence, a dairyman from Chester, New York, attempted to make Neufchâtel, a tangy, crumblier cheese product that was popular in Europe at the time. Instead he accidentally added an excessive amount of cream and created a richer, more spreadable cheese, which would eventually be called “cream cheese”.

Doubt the Philadelphia I get is produced in NY. Sure is made on some town in São Paulo.
