    Miyoko brand cashew cheeses are excellent if you’re not looking for melted cheese. They have an aged cheddar and a soft herbed “cheese” that are great as a cheese-board type thing. Also there are other companies making fake shredded cheese that is lightyears ahead of the soy-based rubbery garbage of a decade ago. I use a fake shredded cheddar on pizza - and it’s much better than being almost but not entirely unlike actual cheese. That said, I miss cheese. Stupid sexy alpha gal allergy.

      I will have to check it out! Ive tried Daiya and a billion others but nothing is quite right (or is just flat out awful). That said, totally agree on soft cheeses / dips / spreads. Nothing beats a proper cheese pizza with mozz tho ;-;

        Violife cheese is what my store carries. It’s better that daiya but not perfect. I’ve enjoyed the “sandwich slice” cheese they have, good melted.
