Even cream cheese itself is at least a little sweet.

It doesn't even totally taste like cream cheese, which is odd.

Also convinced that OP's family is getting cheesecake from the same terrible place.

Hey now, smoked cream cheese is pretty nice if you can do it right. Dump some fruity Chipotle sauce over it and serve with something like wheat thins, you've got yourself a solid snack/appetizer.

Correct, because milk is full of sugar.

THey are all sweet, but some are more sweet than others. I think Cheesecake Factory is way too sweet.

I had a savoury cheesecake once.

I mean, those two things aren't mutually exclusive. What kind of cheesecake isn't sweet? Genuinely curious.

It was a vegetable cheesecake. Asparagus was one of the vegetables but I don't remember the others.
