Daiya

I like the cheddar shreds in tofu scramble and grilled cheese sandwiches. I also like the havarti wedge, but it's really difficult to find here.
 
It's a rare splurge for me - I bought some a few days ago for the first time in many months - but it's so yummy!

I only like the wedges, not the shreds or the slices.
I get 2-3 blocks every week.
 
I made a large warm wholwheat/flax tortilla with Tofurkey Italian sausage slices, melted Cheddar Daiya, guacamole, mesclun leaves and lots of Chipotle hot sauce.

Daiya tastes similar to Tesco's Free From Cheddar cheese and melts well but doesn't have the 'stretch'.

I like it for specific things like the cheddar for nachos with my home made salsa and the mozzarella for tofu ricotta. I also like it on Boca chicken patties.

It strange how your taste buds change.
I really do like dairy cheese and went I first tried to go vegan, I tried Daiya and 2 UK brands of plant based cheese. At first (as I hadn't eaten the real thing for ages) I found Daiya had a nice taste to it.
A few years later , there were many new UK brands of PB cheese on the market which I found were far tastier.
So today, I dug out some Daiya Mozzarella out of the freezr and grated it over my pasta and it tasted awful. I think that I may well bin it.:(

Yes I think it’s because you have better non dairy cheese options than we do.
