Vevan’s Ched-Shred is what it says to be: vegan cheddar shreds. It performs as advertised! The Ched-Shreds have a sort of chalky texture and when making cheesy eggs, it sort of gets this hard/fried texture rather than super melty. This is fine and tasty. It feels like it has the best cheddar cheese taste and…

We picked up this block of vegan Mozzarella (made using cashews, coconut, and soy) at our local farmer’s market. It tasted good plain—it has a nice soft texture with a tang. However, our purpose in getting it was for cheese for pizza. It melted…alright. It didn’t feel super effective on pizza in the way we…

Given how powerful and awesome the Nuts for Cheese Chipotle Cheddar was, I couldn’t resist trying their Smoky Gouda fermented cashew vegan cheese option. And there was also the fact that I love(d) Smoked Gouda. Either way, I was very excited to try this cheese. It didn’t quite live up to the hype I was…

I tried Violife’s Mozzarella Shreds awhile ago and really grew to like them with eggs. So, after seeing it in the store, we picked up Violife Vegan Cheddar shreds—to try another vegan cheese option and to see how it compared with their Mozzarella version. The calories are the same between the two Violife vegan cheese…

This is the second Cheeze & Thank You vegan cheese I’ve tried, the first being their mustard seed smoked gouda, which I really enjoyed. This is nothing like that, conceptually, so I was skeptical but had high hopes for it. I think my sentiments/expectation were on point/met. Herbed feta, in general, is not something I…

This is the first product I’ve tried of Nuts for Cheese. It is their Chipotle Cheddar fermented cashew vegan cheese option. It comes in a wedge and is a dark orange hue. It says it slices, shreds, melts, and spreads. We only really tried slicing it and spreading it. As for the flavor…well, this is…

Another Violife product! This time vegan feta. It’s not very feta-like at all, but it still tastes good. It comes as a solid block and it can kind of be chunked/shredded easily. It’s sort of firm but supple. Doesn’t have a strong flavor, but the unctuous texture/experience makes it really work. Definitely wouldn’t be a…

This vegan mozzarella from Violife come as a bag of shreds rather than a full chunk of fake mozzarella like the Miyoko’s Mozzarella from way back. It is made from coconut oil, starches, and some other stuff. Coming as shreds, it is much easier to top pizzas with due to that convenience factor. It didn’t…

This creamy chive vegan cheese is not the first Miyoko’s cashew milk cheese product I’ve reviewed: I had Miyoko’s Cashew Milk Mozzarella before and thought it was pretty good. This is a very different type of product, though, but also good. It is more of an acquired taste, however, due to its strong chive flavor.…

Cheeze & Thank You is a Chicago based artisanal vegan cheese shop. We picked up a wedge of their vegan Mustard Seed Smoked Gouda as an experiment from a local Whole Foods. When I ate real cheese, gouda was a big favorite of mine…so I was intrigued. It did not disappoint at all! Cheeze &…
