I am really intrigued by vegan cheese! I had some in Bangkok which was not tasty cold but much better after warming up! It seemed to come alive with the heat and tasted surprisingly good.
Recently I saw this vegan cheese for sale at a supermarket in New Zealand. As this was supposed to be vegan cheddar I had to buy it and try some.
This vegan cheddar was produced by Angel food and was:
- 100% Vegan
- Gluten Free
- Dairy Free
That all sounds fine to me!
So what did it taste like. It was a firm at first but became a bit rubbery after being out of the fridge for a while. It didn't really taste like traditional cheddar cheese but was pleasant and like the vegan cheeses I tried in Bangkok became tastier if left out of the fridge for a while.
It seems that heat helps to activate the ingredients in vegan cheese so that they are tastier... at least to my pallet anyway!
It was getting cold in New Zealand so I tried to make myself some grilled (vegan) cheese sandwiches. Sadly this vegan cheese did not melt that well. It became even more rubber rather than bubbly and crispy. It was still tasty though.
Would I buy this vegan cheddar cheese again? Probably not but there are other vegan cheeses that I am eager to try as I come across them. I believe the company who produced this vegan cheese had another flavor. I would try that next time! 🐴
I want to add that I am in no way affiliated with the company which produced this vegan cheese. I purchased the cheese myself! 😉

Cheese is one those the reasons I could never go vegan, I would like to try the vegan cheese though to see if I like it. I really should cut out dairy

It's a tough one for me too. I am not completely vegan but I almost always cook vegan - and I cook a lot. The dairy we get given these days is quite different than 20 years ago and I wouldn't be surprised if it's more poisonous...
The vegan cheeses are getting better. The tasting set I got in Bangkok was positively awesome once it warmed up.
People are trying and working with different ingredients and I'm sure there are some excellent examples around the world just not widely available. Give it a go you might be pleasantly surprised - I was in Bangkok! 😉

The hardest thing for my to give up cheese and I have not found an alternative in the UK. As I don't buy it I do sometimes eat it when out :( 💯🐒
