Hey #vegans, please could you let me know who makes the best #vegan Cheddar? Thanks!

I'm impressed by the #Naturli vegan block butter alternative, so wondering if there is nice vegan Cheddar too?

@jdaviescoates Violife is very nice for sandwich slices, Miyoko’s for fancy cheese and crackers applications.

@foon thanks. I should've added I'm only really interested in #organic products (I don't think violife is? not sure about the other). I think I'll edit my post to reflect that...

@jdaviescoates I've not found any consensus between vegans, the best thing you can do is just try different ones and find your favourite, personally I'm not very picky with the basic cheddar likes and just get the own brands

One note though don't expect the vegan cheeses to be exactly like the dairy you once loved. Treat them like a different style of cheese entirely and your expectations will be better met. Kinda like how a cheddar and a Gloucester are different.

@mrscottytay thanks for the tips. Tbh I think I'll find it harder to substitute cheese than butter and milk.
