  1. That’s not cheese. Veganism is anti cheese and anti cheese-eater. Not sure why that is relevant here.

  2. Forgive my ignorance. How is it made if its vegan? Is milk and cream on the menu for vegans?

  3. The gatekeepers are funny. If you didn’t say this was vegan people would be asking what cheese this is and where to get it.

    Looks great – I’d happily give it a try!

    People are so defensive about the existence of vegan cheese on this sub. Calm down! The democrats aren’t coming to take your dairy away! It’s fine that vegan options exist

  5. Does it taste like Gorgonzola? My issue with most vegan cheeses is that I don’t like their flavor. Usually it’s just very obviously cashew or something like that

  6. Vegan cheeses are awesome cuz im lactose intolerant. U guys need to chill with the vegan hate

  7. I probably have a slightly different take on this to some of the posters on here, but as a Chef, it’s not only vegans that are after products like this. Many are lactose intolerant, so this just creates more opportunities to enliven their diet. Gorgonzola is one of my favourite cheeses and it can be used in so many ways, so a big thumbs up from me.

    I’m neither vegetarian or vegan, but cook a lot for both groups. Totally happy to see that an amazing looking product like this exist.

  8. Had a guy argue with me that Gorgonzola wasn’t blue cheese in the cheese aisle at Costco recently. He just wondered aloud to himself, “they don’t have blue cheese?” And I pointed to the pound of Gorgonzola right in front of him. He was like, “that’s Gorgonzola.” I said, “yeah, I mean, it’s a blue cheese.” And he gave me this pitying look like a teacher amused that a student is that fucking stupid, and was like, “Ah, no…” chuckle chuckle chuckle.

    I have just unsubcribed from this sub because there is exactly zero gatekeeping/edition. “Vegan cheese” is just the worst example. Cheese is one my favorite things in the world but this sub is certainly not even close to be at its level!

    I really want to try one of the fancy vegan cheeses. Haven’t been a big fan of other vegan cheeses, though, except for a pretty good vegan mascarpone.

    This all seems pretty cool. I’m not a vegan or lactose intolerant, but if there are tasty, sustainable, nutritious, nondairy options for human consumption, then bravo for this manufacturer overcoming such a complex hurdle.

    I’m curious myself about the mouthfeel, flavor, fat content et cetera.

    I’d love to be able to host my vegetarian/vegan/lactose intolerant friends & family & be able to enjoy this with them.

    I love all sorts of foods. I just don’t limit myself to plants & non-animal organisms of their products.

  12. All you “not cheese” folks are just as bad as the evangelical vegans that piss you off.

  13. Isn’t Gorgonzola a protected brand of Italien cheese and needs to come from there? This looks nothing like Gorgonzola.
