Does anyone know of a cheese sub that has NO milk products in it. I

just read about casein. And the cheese sub I have been using has

casein in it. I want nothing to do with anything that is or comes

from milk.

 

Thanks,

Robyn

Robyn,

The best

thing to do is just forget about cheese, they all taste pretty gross, or at

least I think. I do make one cheese sub myself that is nutritional yeast and

flour and garlic powder and onion  powder

and water, its good and we only use it once in a blue moon, but as far as the

ones you buy go its just better to learn to live without it.

I have some Soymage Vegan Singles in the fridge. You're welcome to them. :)

 

They're supposed to be like the individually wrapped american cheese slices....maybe they are, I don't know, it's been a looong time since I've eaten cheese. I think they taste pretty horrible, though.

Never having another glass of milk is not a problem --

except that I can use soy milk, but maybe I will just

learn a new way. :)

Thanks for writing,

Robyn,

Trust me

once you have been doing it for a while, you don’t even miss it, me and

my two small children just love pizza and cant even imagine it with cheese, its

almost strange when we see a pizza with cheese. Good luck
