My fave is Hempnut "cheeze" -- they make an AWESOME cheddar-style based on hemp "milk" that has NO caseinate in it! The best thing about this product is that it also "melts" and does not taste like plastic. I tried another product at Natural Foods Expo in Anaheim last March from Follow your Heart (the Vegenaise folks) which was a soft-style "cheeze" made from tofu, which would be great for making sauces or use for nachos, etc. It came in jalapeno and regular cheddar style, however,I have not seen these on the shelf yet -- but hoping that these will be out soon.
