Love the Applewood and Violife Epic Mature. The Koko I have tons of at the moment as it’s the only vegan cheese that’s Slimming World “Healthy A”. It is VERY coconutty but once you develop a taste for it it’s kinda addictive. Always found Sheese products inedible and I really wanted to like it - maybe I’ll give the mild another go.

Maybe you can do a similar video for cheeses made from things from pea protein, nuts and from some independent businesses like Tyne cheese with their sage cheddar :) also cream cheese needs its own video too :) I also love the fact that you don't think coconut and cheese go together, and that you aren't faking it for the sake of being popular amongst other vegans who rave about vegan cheeses being just as good as the real thing!

The bests for me are applewood and koko dairy free - only thing is koko really doesn't melt. It guess it's a matter of personal preference big time when it comes to vegan cheese.You really do have to buy and try, can't really go on others opinions.
