I am happy with M&S Vanilla NY cheesecake.  But maybe I've lived here too long?

hahah I'm not a massive fan of cheesecake normally (like plain vanilla or fruit cheesecake) but I love all the ones that are probably the WORST for you like chocolate or the cheesecake factory ones (like the peanut butter one!!) and I do enjoy the choccy-vanilla mixed cheesecake one M&S does. I do like the chocolate and less healthy cheesecakes here in the UK but maybe it's because I never was massively into cheesecake outside C.F. in the US?
My, how time flies....

Does it have that proper cheesecake tang to it?  Everything I've tried here has been overwhelmingly sweet and the texture too smooth.

My palette is far less sophisticated than that. 

My tongue:  Mmmmmm, yummmm, eat more.  OR  Ewwwww, yuck, eat less

Sadly it's never stop eating......  ::)

I don't think I've ever had a decent cheesecake here except for the ones from Costco.  And they must be baked in the US.

The Costco ones are legit?  This is very important.  My credibility with my husband is on the line.  I've told him they're the real deal.

Can confirm - they have Cheesecake factory cheesecake! :D

LOL! I didn't even know Cheesecake Factory was a real thing! Just assumed it was a fictional restaurant in Big Bang Theory!

Totally legit.  They are actually cheese cake factory  slices, frozen.  You get like 6 slices of different flavours.

Okay, I'm sold.  Now to sell my husband.  Wheee!  Cheesecake without needing to wait 'til we get an oven and learn how to make it!  (Hopefully!)

I probably haven't given Costco the full attention it deserves... I usually kind of know what I want, so just hit those areas and get outta Dodge.

Me too!  My Costco shopping takes about 5 minutes now.  Roasted chicken, Greek salad, chicken enchiladas and I'm done.
Syrup if we are out.

Everything else is too expensive and too much.
