the "cheese" is freeze dried tofu, cashew butter, corn starch, nutritional yeast, soy milk, and vinegar
i live in nyc so i'm expecting the nypd to break down my door and arrest me for committing a hate crime against the entire Italian diaspora any minute now
I'm generally a lover of all food and a typical mistake I see is people trying make non-vegan dishes vegan.
There's just no substituting real cheese on a hot dish. It's just one of those things.
However there are plenty of great vegan and vegetarian dishes out there. And in my personal opinion, the simpler they are, the better they taste. No reason to bend over backwards to emulate cheese.
