Daiya is magic!

[OliviaM19]

Hey all,

I just wanted to share my amazing discovery of Daiya frozen pizza and mac and cheese. I found these at Smith's when I went shopping for gluten-free food for the first time, and I am hooked! This company makes everything gluten-, dairy-, and soy-free, and it actually tastes delicious! When it comes to mac and cheese, I've always been a Kraft girl. I hate gourmet mac and cheese, and was really starting to miss Kraft, but I tried Daiya, and it tastes really similar! I would definitely recommend their products. I've only tried the mac and cheese and pizzas so far, but I know they make cheese and few other things as well that might be really great if you have dairy or soy issues too.  Hope this helps!

Yeah their shreds raw are nasty but melted in recipes they are decent, they make 2 different shreds a cutting board super stretchy version and a plain, they also sell that mac and cheese sauce by itself for use in other recipes. Open Original Shared LinkThe company makes a decent cream cheese and cheese cake also if you can stomach the xantham gum.

I am going to copy and paste something from another thread thread and link you a list of alternatives.

"

Violife...makes vegan Feta...I have been dying to try their cheeses and hear good reviews. They also make other cheeses.

Kite Hill makes great Ricotta, the truffle cheese from them....yeah you will eat the whole thing in one sitting stuff is addictive,  decent cream cheese if you can stomach xantham gum (only one they have that has it).

Miyoko Creamery makes great mozzarella and even a smoked version I hear they make great cream cheese and wheels also but I have not gotten any.

Leaf Cuisines makes the best smoked gouda, and a strong garlic and herb cheese

Tree line Scallion is glorious, and their garlic and herb is milder then Leaf cuisines but decent flavor...the peppered is meh.

Daiya Blocks flavor wise are better then the shreds, the jalapeno Havarti is one my my dads favorites and he loves their cheddar...again xantham gum so not for me. Their cream cheese is decent but noticeable artificial. Their shreds come in 2 formulations a high melt version (cutting block) and standard I they taste better cooked into recieps over raw.
Daiya recently started offering cheese sauces...like the stuff they used to sell with their mac&cheese but just the sauce.

Lissanatti makes the best "raw" shreds for cheddar and mozz.

Parma makes great Parmesan sub...the better then bacon one is SUPER addicting.

I heard good reviews on so delicious cheese....but corn makes makes me not even able to do a chew and spit taste without an allergic reaction.

I recently found a creamery you can contact about getting cheeses...I found their sauce on a site and got it.....great Alfredo sauce.
