What You Should Know

You'd grab this tub from the refrigerated dairy or party foods section for game nights, potlucks, or a relaxed weekend snack — it reads like a nostalgic, comforting crowd-pleaser. The short ingredient list (cultured cream plus dried onion, garlic, salt and sugar) suggests the creamy texture comes from cultured dairy rather than heavy industrial additives, pointing to a processed ready-to-eat product (NOVA 3) rather than an ultra-processed formulation.
