*all of my cheese shreds, I freeze until I’m gonna eat them
**pls note how each thing was prepped. like mac n chz is a way harsher test than eating the shreds on nachos. so…. yemv based on how you’re eating them
Forager Project “3 Cheeze Blend”: 4.5/5
yummy!! basically mexican blend. noted on packaging to be like “Queso Fresco, Monterey Jack, & Cheddar”
yumminess: 4/5 it tastes good but not outstanding
non-vegan similarity: 5/5 can’t tell difference; you can fool most people
Our Prep: on vegan nachos
I thought this stuff was great! Some of the best vegan cheese I’ve had so far. Zero weird vegan cheese aftertaste! Melted great on our nachos. Good flavor and consistency. All around big thumbs up!!
AND! They’re organic:)

Kroger Simple Truth “Non-Dairy Cheddar Style Shreds”: 3/5
3/5 it’ll do when you have a craving…
yumminess: 3/5 it is not bad but it is also not good
non-vegan similarity: 3/5 most ppl can tell it’s a vegan alt
Our Prep: (As mac n chz). boil pasta noodles in salty water. top w desired amount of cheddar shreds. mix with a splash of pasta water. microwave 1 min.
Meh idk …my sib (who is an aspiring vegan) actually said they wouldn’t be able to tell that it’s vegan.
I haven’t had dairy cheese since 2019 but I thought most ppl could tell that it’s vegan. The flavor is okay. It definitely has that weird vegan cheese flavor in the background but it’s not too bad. I’d buy it again when I have a craving for mac n chz but I wouldn’t eat this regularly. The shreds are smaller than the Follow Your Heart ones and melt better too.

Follow Your Heart “Dairy-Free Shredded Cheddar”: 2.5/5
meh
yumminess: 2/5 it tastes bad
non-vegan similarity: 3/5 most ppl can tell it’s a vegan alt
Our Prep: (As mac n chz). boil pasta noodles in salty water. top w desired amount of cheddar shreds. mix with a splash of pasta water. microwave 1 min.
Okay okay… so to me, these taste like the Kraft Mac n Chz. Even before I went vegan, I refused to eat that stuff because I thought the flavor was horrid. So, if you like Kraft and Velveeta, you might like this… but I did not….
Compared to the Kroger Simple Truth shreds, these shreds seemed creamier upon melting.
