Oh, come on...it's not that hazardous. 
Ingredients: Pasteurized milk and cream, cheese culture, whey protein concentrate, salt, stabilizers (locust bean and/or xanthan and/or guar gums).
So, what makes cream cheese hazardous and Cheddar not?
Kabuki security at its finest. (and I love that they've even got a Wikipedia entry for it)

TSA is just practicing how to say "spread 'em"

BTW, was the pax provided with a knife to use to spread the cream cheese, or did they have to use their own?
