Many people decide not to eat cheese made from dairy for a variety of reasons. In some cases, it’s due to lactose intolerance, and in others, it is for dietary reasons. Many companies have invested resources into cheese alternatives, and the results have been great. Here are some of the best vegan cheeses on the market.
Prosociano by Violife
Traditional Italian prosociano is aged to perfection and easy to crumble over pasta. Finding a vegan alternative that provides both the tangy taste and the texture isn’t easy—but Violife has done it. Violife’s prosociano has the crumbly texture you want, the delicious taste, and the added bonus of being gluten, soy, and nut-free.
Almond Milk Cream Cheese by Kite Hill
No bagel is complete without a smear of cream cheese, but for those that don’t want any lactose, finding that creamy texture can be tough. Kite Life has developed a very close substitute with their almond milk cream cheese. It spreads like cream cheese and offers a tangy flavor with some of the added spices.
Scallion Soft French-Style Nut Cheese by Treeline
No cheese substitute will ever perfectly match the flavor of the real deal. However, Treeline’s selection of French-Style nut cheeses get pretty close. Made from cashews, they spread well and have the tang you usually associate with a ripe Brie.
