Guest guest Posted March 22, 2003 Report Share Posted March 22, 2003 I just checked my fridge for the soy cheeze my son likes. It's by Soymage. Singles and block form.. The sodium is 200+ per serving. (!) Have you checked out rice, hemp, almond cheezes or looked into making your own? I have a bunch of cheeze recipes, but I'm not sure what the sodium content of them is - you could most likely alter the amount while making though.. ? Good luck to you. Let me know if you'd like a few recipes. ~gv > " erwho " <wagneraj >Say " Cheese " with low salt? > >Can anyone recommend a vegan cheese substitute product with relatively >low sodium (optimally, under 100 mg/serving)? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2003 Report Share Posted March 24, 2003 Am I the only one who thinks soymage smells horrible? I gag when I open the package! Sandra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2003 Report Share Posted March 24, 2003 I don't know about the smell, but I tried one (I think it was supposed to be cheddar) and it tasted awful. I gave some to my daughter who took a bite, got the most awful look on her face and spent the next several minutes spitting it out in the garbage and making gagging sounds. LOL. - Sandra Mort Monday, March 24, 2003 9:10 AM Re: Re: Low Salt Cheeze Am I the only one who thinks soymage smells horrible? I gag when I open the package!

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2003 Report Share Posted March 24, 2003 I can't bear to taste it, but my kids gobble it up. I wouldn't eat it if you paid me to, though.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2003 Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 I just bought Soymage's vegan parmesan, and at least it passes the smell test. I took a little taste and it's not an exact match, but I can probably get used to it. I bought Zendon's chocolate soy pudding, and that is excellent. Even my husband had to admit it was good, and he generally flees at the very mention of soy - no soy milk, tofu, etc. for him. I haven't tried it for my daughter yet. She refuses to drink soy milk, but does not drink cow's milk either (her only exception is that she will drink it with doughnuts, but as she only has them a couple of times a year, she's not getting much milk). I don't care that she doesn't drink milk, but she needs to be getting some calcium and protein from somewhere. I thought the pudding would at least provide some calcium.
