Considering it's somehow becoming cheaper (rather, other cheeses are becoming more expensive), I wish the singular vegan cheese at Lidl was... better than this.

It's like if someone made a cheese but only had a vague idea of what cheese was and that their only real thought about the whole thing was based on salt content.

@whatanerd Yep, I feel this. Unfortunately none of the options here are really any better... the cumin cheese from Albert Heijn was a bit better, but in terms of 'standard' gouda-style slices, the Lidl one was actually the *better* one :(

@whatanerd Relatedly: very annoying how some vegan cheese slices have a way too low salt content, presumably because they're trying to avoid the coconut oil aftertaste, and thereby make it taste like *nothing at all*

@joepie91 These ones taste like coconut *and* salt, which is why when you said it's supposed to be gouda-style... I just gawped at my screen.

@whatanerd Yeahhhh. I've found the ones from Nurishh to be a bit closer to the real thing, but they don't seem to be available anywhere in NL. Their vegan gran padano is surprisingly good though.
