Gluten-Free Vegan 101 Review - Gluten-Free Vegan Cheese (Simply Better Foods)

From the pan to the pen, here is the Gluten-Free Vegan Baker's review of one of the current gluten-free vegan products available in Malaysia.  This review is dedicated to all vegans in Malaysia and beyond who are also in a gluten-free diet.  For the sake of all vegans, this review will make no reference or comparisons to non-vegan products.

Simply Better Foods Vegan Soy Cheese Omega 3 Cheddar

 (Ingredients: water, vegetable oil, soybeans (21%), thickener (1401, 1450), tapioca, flavors, vegetable gums (410, 415), yeast extract, salt, food acids (270, 260), natural color (annatto), mineral salt (511).)

Simply Better Foods Vegan Soy Cheese Mild Cheddar

 (Ingredients: water, vegetable oil, soybeans (21%), thickener (1401, 1450), tapioca, flavors, vegetable gums (410, 415), yeast extract, salt, food acids (270, 260), natural color (annatto), mineral salt (511).)

Aroma & Taste:  Both Simply Better Foods Vegan Soy Cheese Omega 3 Cheddar and Simply Better Foods Vegan Soy Cheese Mild Cheddar share a similar aroma and taste.  The smell was very mild, slightly nutty and buttery.  The flavor, on the other hand, was delightfully savory.   I find the aroma and taste very original, satisfyingly tasty and a bit addictive.  I used the cheese to make grilled cheese sandwiches and on many occasions, with salads or just on their own. 

Appearance & Texture:  Simply Better Foods Vegan Soy Cheese comes in block forms which are easily sliced.  However, the texture is not smooth and tends to be gritty and dry.  It breaks apart easily after slicing which I don't mind at all.  I enjoy every chance that I can get to just nibble on bits and pieces of these cheese.  It also melts quickly and makes for an interesting grilled cheese sandwich.

Price:  Simply Better Foods Vegan Soy Cheese Cheddar is considerably cheaper than Follow Your Heart Vegan Gourmet Cheddar Cheese.

Verdict:  Simply Better Foods Vegan Soy Cheese Omega 3 Cheddar and Simply Better Foods Vegan Soy Cheese Mild Cheddar are simply better especially in terms of flavor and price compared to Follow Your Heart Vegan Gourmet Cheddar Cheese.  In spite of the grittiness of it, I consider it to be really original and different and totally comforting.  I highly recommend Simply Better Foods Vegan Soy Cheese Cheddar.
