Did not live up to the hype
As a hater if most vegan cheeses on the market, I was pretty excited when people told me that these are soooo much better than other brands. I was skeptical because the ingredients are pretty similar to a few other brands I have found disgusting, but I thought the high price tag might indicate that they were better than the competition - after all, people seem willing to buy them!
Anyway, I was let down yet again. They melt way too liquidy and the exact same fake-cheese aftertaste I HATE.
For others who have been let down by the vegan cheeses available in supermarkets, I would highly recommend fermented nut cheeses. While the texture is typically soft and they don't typically melt well, the flavour FAR surpasses Chao and other starch-and-oil-based brands, and there are a lot of small Canadian companies producing really great ones that ACTUALLY taste like cheese!
