I’m in Canada so I can’t get some of these but I will say that number 4, the Chao slices are really good.

    The Chao and Babybel are the only vegan cheeses I’ve liked. Miyoko’s spreads are great, but it’s hard to consider them as cheese at all.

    The Chao slices are great on burgers and in grilled cheese. Cook easy, taste great. I’ve also torn them up and tossed into a Just Egg mixture for a breakfast burrito, and that made my burritos go from A- to S tier.

    The Babybel are delicious snacks akin to string cheese: individually packaged, solid white cheese, eaten handheld. Never cooked with them and they are sort of expensive at 6/$4.

    Though I will continue to bring up the main issue with vegan cheese: NO NUTRITION! Almost pure junkfood! Real cheese has protein and calcium! The Babybel do actually have some calcium, but in general vegan cheese is all tasty filler: if your meal is too low in calories (easy with vegan meals) and kinda plain and boring, toss in some cheese and the texture, flavor, and calories get a boost. I just want healthy vegan cheese, dammit.
