How to keep the rest
After opening, keep the remaining cream cheese tightly covered in the refrigerator. It should be consumed within the recommended timeframe to maintain its freshness and flavor. Ensure the lid is securely fastened to prevent drying out or absorbing other odors from the refrigerator.
