I wonder if Mascarpone would be a suitable substitute.
Sorry about the bolding.

@tansy - Yes, mascarpone is an excellent suggestion! I can't believe I didn't think to recommend it; the texture is similar and it's much milder than cream cheese. I know lots of people who prefer it to cream cheese, especially in desserts, even when they really like both products.

Don't know. I posted the full brand company name and this is how it was edited by mods. ***e. Mods left the e. Decided to delete it.
Yes, it was surprising.

@Foxxee - If the "e" was left as is, it was definitely that initial three-letter combination, which also happens to be a slur, that caused the deletion.
To test this theory:
Yoplait
Activia
Gogurt

I don't like cream cheese either, but put it in a cheese cake and I'm in love!!!

@tansy I've used cream cheese instead of mascarpone because it's less expensive and my tiramisu was delicious.

I see what you're saying, but how many words would be deleted because a sequence of letters spell an offensive word? Are they using some sort of algorithm that detects such things? A mod reading would know the name of a very popular product is not a slur.
