Not All Soy Cheeses are Made Equal

Whether it be for the taste of the cheeses, or the fear of soy, chances are you’ve overheard a ‘beware of soy cheese‘ conversation. The Vegan Detective is offering another reason to be careful while eating/purchasing soy cheese: many of them are not vegan! Yes, that correct. Some companies produce “cheese” made from soy or rice milk, only to ruin it by adding casein.

For example, Yves Mac N Soy Cheese, contains Casein. As does Okanagan’s Soya Co.’s Cheddar Loaf. Before you vegans lose faith in all cheese alternatives, there are many vegan slices, toppings, and blocks available. Always double check and read the label. Remember, just because it contains soy, doesn’t make it vegan.
