What type of cheesecake is the most common in southern US SuperMarkets?

Question

I know there are dozens of types of cheesecake. But I have noticed supermarkets seem to all be making the same type of cake. It has a firm white creamcheese texture that is never tart.

What type of cheesecake is normally found in supermarkets? The ingredients include (heavy) cream

Answer

Google search for various grocery store cheesecakes reveals:

Is that what is meant? If so, it appears to be a fairly generic baked New York style cheesecake. Wiki says frozen ones often include sour cream instead of heavy cream, so they'll freeze better.
