#### My husband has recently gotten his health checked and it came back (unsurprisingly) that he can no longer eat dairy.

But he loves cheese – oh how he loves cheese! So I was quite surprised when I found
out that you can actually buy Vegan Cheese, that is dairy-free cheese! Now I’m about
to go on the journey now to try them all out! I feel like I’ve been living under
a rock because I didn’t know about this!

On top of that, when I visited Sydney just this last weekend there was a Vegan rally
in the Sydney CBD – now this is a topic I don’t want to get into – I have farmers
in my family and my area which I totally support, but let’s not talk about that.
The thing is, I’m certainly open to trying new foods, and I’m excited to eat loads
of cheese #winning. So here are the different types of cheeses I found, most are
pretty widely available in most Supermarkets, others are a bit fancier and can only
be bought online (with cold packs).

Woolworths $6.00

Honest Reviews via Product Review.com.au:

 * ‘It doesn’t really melt but I love it on crackers and sandwiches’
 * ‘Tricky to melt, but it melts better than many competitors.  Tastes a bit like…
   Edam? More than cheddar.’
 * ‘I love this cheese but the weight of the pack has gone down from 250 grams to
   200 grams so I will not buy it any more as it is too expensive and will start
   making my own.’

Also have a look at [https://noshing.com.au/](https://noshing.com.au/), I’m in WA
and they can be bought locally or online. I’m not a fan of Bio Cheese, but there
is a new one that has popped up in Coles/Woolies called “Made by Plants” I’ve tried
the cheddar one and it’s good.
