On the streets of Philadelphia

Advantages: Excellent performances, story and sound track
Disadvantages: None

...making to have challenged so many people to confront their own prejudices and ignorance. Dealing with the highly provocative subject of homosexuality and AIDS, Philadelphia does an excellent job of disbanding many of the myths surrounding both of the subjects. Not only does Philadelphia tell a powerful story of injustice, it is also a beautifully shot film, which has many scenes which will tug at your heart strings. It also allowed Tom Hanks to demonstrate that he was more than capable of performing serious roles as he had previously been better known for his comedy roles. There were some critics who suggested that Hanks was not convincing as a homosexual, what did they expect a bloke wearing lipstick, lycra and high heals. Part of the beauty of the film was that it attempted to destroy society's stereotypes of how homosexuals looked and acted...

Review of Philadelphia (DVD)

kraft philadelphia xtra light

Advantages: Low Fat
Disadvantages: Negligible fiber content.

...philadeplphia extra light was founded by a American milkman by back in 1872, which is a long time ago, I am really suprised the Kraft company make a time line story about this. I am sure most people are familiar with the kraft Philadelphia Television advert from a few years ago which I will not bother talking about in too great detail as it showed a beautiful female sitting down on a Sun Bed ouside on a warm summer's day looking to enjoy herself by eating the original version of Philadelphia spread. So here I am now reviewing kraft's extra Light Spread. I am thinking to myself, what would the Television advert look like now. This part of the opinion is where it shall end. The Product itself was launched in 2001 with less than six per cent fat content inside. Today it contains four point seven grams of fat. Basic ingredients...

Review of Kraft Philadelphia Extra Light

Philadelphia Fan!!

Advantages: Taste great, ok for calories, great snack food
Disadvantages: Sometimes the 'dippers' can be too large to dip

...I only came about this product last week when shopping at Tesco's. I only noticed them because they were in special offer and since trying them, they have become one of my favourite snacks. Philadelphia Splendips are very similar to Dairylea dunkers but they also have a sweet variety as well as savoury. Philadelphia Splendips There are four varieties of Philadelphia Splendips. These are Thai Sweet Chilli, Chives, Cheesecake and Nachos. Philadelphia Splendips come in a container similar to Dairylea Dunkers except that they have three compartment rather than two. Half of the container if taken up with the 'dipper' section and the other half is split into two sections, containing cheese and then whatever flavour you have picked. The container has a foil lid which peels off and is easy to remove. The containers themselves are...

Review of Kraft Philadelphia Splendips

Philadelphia Extra light

Advantages: Gorgeous creamy tast, low in fat, great price, versatile
Disadvantages: None

...When I clicked on product of the week I was really pleased to see that finally there is a product that I can write about enthusiastically and with a bit of knowledge. It has even prompted me to carry out a little research on the history of the product, so I do hope you enjoy my review. In 1872 the first cream cheese is made by William Lawrence an American Dairyman in New York and in 1880 the name Philadelphia is chosen as the brand name. This is because the City Philadelphia is considered to be the home of top quality food. At this time it was sold for the first time ever in foil wrappers. In 1903 The Phenix Cheese Company of New York bought the Philadelphia trademark. Then in 1928 Phoenix merged with the Kraft Cheese Company and in 1960 Philadelphia was launched in the UK. In 1963 the first UK TV advert for Philadelphia is...

Review of Kraft Philadelphia Extra Light

Philadelphia, New-York's under-rated sibbling.

Advantages: So much to do in this great city
Disadvantages: Only Ba fly direct from heathrow.

...Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love is in my opinion one of the best cities to visit in the USA. It is situated on the Delaware river, right next door to New-Jersey and just 90 miles from New-York. Between 1790 and 1800 Philadelphia was the capital city of the USA and is steeped in American History with a multitude of places to visit. The skyline of the downtown area (known locally as 'centre city') is so similar to Canary Wharf in london's East End that on my first visit on looking out of my hotel window on Benjamin Franklyn Boulevard I thought I was back home. Part of the downtown area is dominated by the Old arts district which comprises of the 45 acre Independance Park where you can find The Liberty Bell exhibition and Independance Hall, (where the American constitution was drafted and signed). Also you can visit...

Review of Philadelphia

Philadelphia Extra Light - tingle your tastebuds

Advantages: Low fat and calories. great taste and versatile
Disadvantages: None to mind

...Kraft Philadelphia Extra Light Spread Spread it all over I don't know about anyone else, but I am a big lover of all things that spread on toast - cheese spread, marmite, pate, jam, lemon curd and even the odd pot of Nutella graces the cupboards of my kitchen. These fantastic spreads are my sin, my fall-down and my weakness, all rolled into one. I don't believe in a thin covering with the knife - I want to sink my mouth into the toast with generous portions of spread - why spread so thin I can hardly taste it? The only problem is that lifelong phrase comes back to haunt me: One moment on the lips, a life-time on the hips. Honestly, the person who invented that phrase was designed to taunt me - I call that bullying in my house! But in all seriousness, I have had to take a hard look at what I really AM...

Review of Kraft Philadelphia Extra Light

Philadelphia Pennsylvania

Advantages: Great City/No homeless/ Interesting sites
Disadvantages: broken public phones /shops closed early

...Philadelphia is like a little New York Ahhhh to see New York without the crowds. This is the challenge. I love Philadelphia. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!BEST TIME TO VISIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ve found that the best time to visit Philadelphia is on Memorial Day [May 31 of every year]. Philadelphia celebrates Memorial Day in a big way, yet there are no major crowds. [Guess everyone hasn’t found out about this yet]. We went to the celebration by accident. We had just come to see parts of Philadelphia in general and wanted to see the LIBERTY BELL. And right across from there, all of a sudden, there was an assembly of people who were dressed like colonial men and women. And, there were men who were uniformed with the rifles and all. The women’s skirt hoops were so big you could hide a large microwave under them...

Review of Philadelphia, USA (PHL)

I'd rather be in Philadelphia

Advantages: See Above
Disadvantages: None

...I first went to Philadelphia in May 1998 (as I was in a relationship with someone who lived there). It was my first trip to the U.S. but I immeadiately fell in love with this city. As Philly is one of the oldest cities in the U.S. (and it used to be the capital before Washington D.C.) it has so much history and it's also not as much of a culture shock for Europeans as the style of the city incorporates a lot of European architecture into the American style. I was staying in the Mt Airy part of the city which whilst being quiet surburban is very pretty, and the houses look great. There are many little shops and markets to visit. It's also not far from the very large Fairmount Park that stretches right down into downtown Philly. The Park is home to lots of wildlife and its a great place to go for long walks along the river which...

Review of Philadelphia

GUILT FREE PHILADELPHIA

Advantages: yummy cheesey cheeseness, lower in fat, still as tasty.
Disadvantages: none

...I was a bit dubious when I picked this off the shelf, I had tried various other diet/low fat/ extra light options only to be assaulted by the complete lack of flavour or overwhelming taste of artificial sweeteners. However this is truly lovely, cheesy creamy soft cheese. Delicious on hot toast or with baked spuds and if you like baked spuds put a dollop of this stuff on top of your hot beans and enjoy. I have always loved Philadelphia because it is so handy to take to work and spread on some crackers instead of making sandwiches. I love this one now as I can have one or two more crackers and not feel so guilty. Kraft have managed to keep the flavour of the old Philly we know and love and made it healthier for us which is why this product should be in your basket!...
