Frequently Asked Questions

How long do cream cheese dips last?

Dips with cream cheese don’t really last that long since cream cheese is a dairy product. If you got some leftover dip, place it in an airtight container and keep in the fridge. It’ll stay good for up to two days. Do note that it’ll naturally become watery as time goes by. 

How do you fix watery dip?

Many different dips turn watery as the liquids settle down to the bottom. The consistency will change, but the taste will most likely be the same. To fix watery dip, simply drain the liquid by pouring or spooning it out. Then, mix the remaining cream cheese mixture until smooth.

What do you eat with pineapple dip?
