Vegan Tacos! and "cheese"

Success! I made vegan tacos. (Mine had vegan cheese and hubby had regular cheese) but I used the veggie crumbles and the husband ate it! And he thought it was ok! Score!

I am trying to come up with some recipes that he will actually eat. Next time, I might have to change out the  cheeses hee hee.

Which leads me to cheese. I found a vegan artisan "cheese"  cookbook on Amazon that I am going to get. My one thing I need to find a suitable replacement for is Goat Cheese. Honestly, I am not missing the other cheese at all, which really surprises me. I guess looking at cheese differently has just, well, grossed me out.

The mental picture of a grown man sucking on a cow teat and the word "mucus" just sort of did me in.

One thing I am finding is all "cheese" is not created equal.

Apparently Vegusto is the best Vegan "Cheese: and I heard that it is coming to America soon. Everyone RAVES about this "cheese".

I tried some shreds I bought in the meat free dairy case at the store and they were strange tasting. Not bad, but not great.

However, the Veggy brand "slices" I bought were actually pretty darn close to the real thing. They melted and tasted almost exactly like American cheese slices.

I will keep posting about this topic until every Vegan cheese has been explored!
