I agree but vegan cheese/milk just doesn't cut it. I'm vegetarian but until they manage to emulate the taste better I make a concession for cheese.

In other words β€œI support cruelty against animals because of my taste buds, fully knowing what that animal cruelty contains”

Yes, but you have to draw a line somewhere. The crops you eat have pesticides on, animals are trapped and killed to keep the places you eat and live clean.

I support cruelty to people who post bait like this, too.

You don't really miss it after a few months. And maybe it's stockholme syndrome but lately when I get something with vegan "cheese" on it, it hasn't been awful. Last weekend I got a Daiya pizza thinking it was gonna be complete trash and it wasn't horrible actually.

I've heard the best way to to replace cheese (as a vegan or someone going non-diary) is to just not. The vegan cheese substitutes don't taste good if you are used to dairy and cheese in general doesn't really provide much nutrition

Yeah. I tried the vegan cheeses because you have to have cheese on pizza right? (Violife is the only decent tasting one I've found here that doesn't contain carageenan). Then I tried making pizza without cheese and it's just as good. So now I have cheeseless pizza. The flavour comes from the veg.

Why not make your own? A simple cashew cheese + nooch, is nutritious and taste good.
