Cheese is usually used for information that is being sent out as bait (think mouse trap).
To cut the cheese (fart) means you have spoken about the information to people who shouldn't hear it or don't want to hear it (don't talk about farts or poopoo humor at the dinner table / gossip).
Cream is thick milk (insider information that's time sensitive) which has more fat (substance/reward) to it.
Ice Cream ( I SCREAM) is used for comms concerning urgent messages that absolutely need to get out there (think Biden favorite Ice Cream flavor comms).
So, Cream Cheese is probably a combination of Cream and Cheese, which is information that is really really enticing, as bait, but does have some reward/fat to it.
Could cream cheese represent liquidity? The current context seems to have milk as money milked outta the system. Cream is the good stuff, as you say, so cream cheese would be good money, but it's also easy to spread around (like on a bagel).
Maybe it's regional? The articles seem to mention Philadelphia brand, and NY and NJ bagel shops and cheesecake.
Can you milk a cow over and over and over again? No, they'll run dry.
So, you let a cow go out to pasture and graze. Then, when they're nice and plump, you milk them.
Cows are informants.
You milk cows for time-sensitive information (milk).
If not acted upon quickly, it will spoil.
Work it a bit and it turns to cream.
What is the "cream of the crop"?
It's the best of a group.
So, cream is to milk as reliable and lucrative information is to time-sensitive information. It keeps a bit longer, but it spoils just the same.
Anything liquid flows. Information (water) flows, but it's cheap. Information that's thick and fatty (can make you rich) is milk.
Information that you curate and prepare for use in, say, a mouse trap is cheese.
Cream Cheese is thick and doesn't flow, but can spread.
What spreads? Rumors.
Cream Cheese, then, is bait that spreads only as far as you want it to. It doesn't fall through holes (like in a bagel) so you can be sure it won't spread farther than you intend.
For a real-life example...
Someone you work with seems like they are likely to steal if given the chance. You suspect they might have stolen from the store, but you aren't sure. You don't like them in general, so you craft a plan to get them caught stealing, along with other employees you question the loyalty of.
You tell the person that the cameras don't actually work on Fridays when Windows 10 updates because the computers auto-restart and the cameras need to be manually turned back on by IT, who typically don't work on Fridays.
Only you, the IT team, and now the other employee know this.
Wait a couple weeks. Ask staff members if the cameras were acting funky the last couple Fridays. If any mention they know the cameras don't work during a Windows update, you know that the one you confided in spread the info to the ones he might trust to not rat him out should he steal.
If a theft occurs on a Friday, conveniently during a Windows 10 update, you now have a list of people crafted ahead of time involving all those who could have committed the crime.
Do you see how the FBI might use such a scheme to set-up and entice groups they monitor into committing crimes they wouldn't have attempted had they not been leaked the info? It only goes so far, because they can't spread it without implicating themselves. It makes a neat and tidy round-up if you're in the FBI.
Yeah, I get it, and I really like the way you sort it all out in simple digestible language. But I still think in this case they're talking about money. The double mastectomy did it for me there (per my other comment below).
Cheese is not always about bait for a trap, but it's clearly something we all want. This book equates cheese to money. They created it for companies to hand out before huge layoffs. And perhaps to establish the comms that cheese is money.
Good point...
So what was the cream cheese shortage about? It was all over the news here, and the stores had tons of it...

Wow. Thank you SleepyDude. So simple and yet it whooshed right past me.
You don't happen to have the link that defines many decode symbols, do you? It was a word press one, I think.

I'm working on my own, too.

EDIT: Darn it! Now I'm craving some cream cheese.

You have to milk a cow.
