so are you saying all vegan cheese is "unpleasant"?I would really like to try some myself but when that one word pops up it makes me think it might not be worth my time to try to even make some home made

@tappakeggaday1 before Daiya, there were very few good vegan cheeses. Daiya is incredible, and Sheese and Cheezly are also quite good. Definitely worth a try!

A lot of plastic packaging for an eco-conscious person. :)

[EcoVeganGal]

@Gabrielitodlp you're absolutely right, so Daiya is an occasional treat.

I just tried some cheddar on nachos and it's incredible. It smells like dairy cheese, tastes like dairy cheese, and melts like dairy cheese! Except Daiya doesn't have that pervy hormone laden milk of another species.

why? you don't think it's silly eating real cheese?

[DragonBunni]

@DragonBunni thats what I used to think, but they taste really good in recipes with spices. I made lasagna and paninis with the moz and it was fanastic.

I hate any other vegan cheese >_> Follow Your Heart's cheese is absolutely terrible.

Amanda knox look alike

@selenite1 The cheddar one was the only one I kinda liked. The mozzarella was bland and the pepper jack tasted like straight up sewage :/

I thought they all smelled kinda root-like, almost plastic-y. They smelled like synthetic material.

[selenite1]

@DragonBunni To me the cheddar one does. I didn't care for the mozzerella (sp) one.

[DragonBunni]

@selenite1 it doesn't smell like cheese at all... ಠ_ಠ

[DragonBunni]

Daiya really irritates my stomach :/ I wanted to like it....I can stomach it on pizza if it's not too much, but I can't make like a grilled cheese or mac and cheese with it.

[HappilyCyn]

It tastes like melted mayo. Yuck! Please don't do it.

[HappilyCyn]

I bought Daiya today because of this review. It is not good. I repeat this stuff does not taste good. Save yourselves. Next time my pizza will only have veggies and sauce. I am now recognizing we truly do not need a substitute for everything.

@Candynite DITTO! I wanted to like it and it did nothing but make me sick for two days straight.

I've been interested in Daiya, but your right it is incredibly hard to find, and if Whole Foods is one of the only places that carry it, I'm in trouble....the last place I bought a weeks worth of groceries at Whole Foods it was what I could splurge on Non Vegan Stuff for a Monty ($_$)
