    Allergy- friendly cheese alternative

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Solid dairy free swap with great melt, mild cheddar soft, salty flavor & clean ingredients. Heated, the texture is creamy. Vegan, gluten free.

    Good

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Violife cheddar shreds are honestly one of my favorite dairy -free chesses i've tried. Melts great , tastes super close to real cheddar. The texture is smooth and creamy without that weird aftertaste sơn vegan cheese i have.

    It not ‘cheese’…it’s cheese to me!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I made a vegan baked ziti recipe and this ‘cheese’ turned out so wonderfully! It melted just like normal cheese and even gave me that taste of familiarity tha I have been craving!

    Awesome ingredient or garnish

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm not vegan or have an issue with dairy, but I like to make sure I have food available for anyone regardless of dietary issues, so I was excited to try the Violife Foods Just Like Cheddar Shreds as an inclusive ingredient. This is NOT a cheese substitute and shouldn't be used like one. It's great as an ingredient or a garnish, but not as the star of a dish or as a snacking cheese. It's also not a "healthy" alternative based on the nutrition facts. It has a lot of saltiness and umamni flavor, so use it sparingly. It melted surprisingly well into a cheesy sauce (with other dairy cheeses), and also on its own in a quesadilla. There was a smidge of oil separation, but I still got a small cheese pull. Overall, this is an amazing, flavorful ingredient and I'm so glad that Violife is making these types of foods affordable and accessible for people that have dietary restrictions or preferences!

    Pretty close to cheese

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Definitely looks like cheese despite being dairy free. The taste is close but not quite like regular cheese. It does melt well. It is a good alternative if you are looking at removing dairy and overall it was priced well. I'll probably stick to regular cheese but this is a great option.

    Tastes like cheese

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this cheese for our tacos. It tastes like cheese and you can’t even tell it’s dairy free. The only negative is the cheese does not melt easily.

    This is one that will stay on the shelf.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was just okay for us. It didn’t melt as expected. The package was fine, like most other pre shredded cheese. It’s a little pricier but that’s to be expected for vegan products.

    I will not purchase again.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Over all this was terrible! The texture was definitely different and it didn’t melt very well. It definitely did not taste just like cheddar. I wanted to like it but it was just a no go for me!

    Thanks for giving it a try and being upfront about what didn't work for you. We know melt and flavor are make-or-break, especially when you're looking for that cheddar experience. Your feedback on taste and texture is appreciated and noted 🩵

    An interesting cheese alternative

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cheese alternative is interesting. The storage was simple. It seemed to melt ok, not as smooth as real cheese. It wasn't chewy. The coconut oil is an interesting ingredient. I did like that is wasn't coated in potato starch like most shredded cheese but it did clump a little because of that. The price point is higher than regular cheese.

    Loved this for pizza!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was such a great product! We used it on handmade pizzas and nobody even noticed a difference to what we normally used. It melted well and it smelled great. Would definitely buy again!

    An okay cheese for light topping

    The cheese does the trick for needing a bit of cheese flavor on tacos and such. It does not melt like I would like it to and have had better options. I still would rebuy.

    Amazing

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was very good and nice the gooeyness was great I did add this and another cheese product to it but also the taste was good and smells amazing and was very useable for foods like pizza and bread. Easy to take eat and take apart no hard separation and very versatility.

    Acts and tastes just like cheese should

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product melted surprisingly well. I tried it by making cheese toast in an air fryer. I’m not a fan of the smell when you open the package, but that is a personal opinion. It’s not bad, just not what I like. The texture is great, feels like most other cheddar shreds that I use. Texture for eating is fine as well, feels the same. The packaging is nice; eye catching yet simple but also explanatory. Price is good for the type of product.

    A good cheese substitute

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was skeptical of a vegan cheese. However, this tasted very similar to cheddar and melted well. No odd aftertaste or texture issues with this cheese substitute.
