Vegan Street has been around long enough to remember the tasteless plastic-y faux cheeses that were the best plant-based choices available, and we have been celebrating and cheerleading every advance in vegan cheese ever since. Nowadays vegan cheese is pretty darned good, especially for those of us for whom home dairy cheese is just a distant memory. But none of the many great plant-based cheeses have completely replicated dairy cheese.
Now, scientists from the University of Guelph in Ontario and Canadian Light Source Inc. in Saskatchewan are working to produce plant-based cheese with all the characteristics of dairy cheese, but with better health benefits, and they feel that they have found the perfect ingredients and processes to do this.
These are scientists, not entrepreneurs or business people, so these recipes have not been turned into final products yet, but the will. We expect that we will likely be seeing this new generation of cheeses on grocery shelves and restaurants in the next few years at most.
