Mixed feelings
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Violife Foods, Mexican Style Shreds in return for my honest opinion. I decided to make a toasted cheese sandwich. I was surprised by how well the shreds melted. The sandwich turned out crispy on the outside with the shreds oozing out the sides and it looked tasty. It tasted close to cheese but had a slight aftertaste, though not a bad one, slightly oily maybe. I also tried it right out of the bag. It had a firmness to it as if it was stale and did not taste good this way. I think it is best used in a melted, hot form.

Great cheese option for dairy intolerant!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoyed using this cheese with my tacos and on my deep dish pizza. The texture is firm yes creamy. The taste is good! I am not dairy free but I enjoyed this cheese! The packaging is ok, need to make sure the opening part is easy to open when you tear it. But like the seal that keeps the cheese fresh in its bag.

Nothing special about it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was good. Tasted like regular cheese. Nice consistency and easy to use. It didn't require any assembly and I had to use 2 bags because 1 bag wasn't enough. No maintenance required either.

Okay cheese
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cheese is just okay. I still cannot find a decent non dairy cheese that melts nicely and tastes just as good. The packaging is nice and was fresh but don’t think I would buy again

Melts amazingly
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cheese melts SO well compared to other brands I’ve tried in the past. The packaging stores well and stays zipped closed! I sprinkled some (well a lot) on my homemade pizza dough and everyone gobbled it right up!

Shocked at how good this is.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly if no one told me this was vegan I would never know. It’s all clean ingredients, smells like cheese tastes like cheese, melts like dairy cheese. Can put it on almost anything but it’s excellent on tacos and it tastes great was perfectly seasoned. Store it in the fridge and pop it on anything. Stays fresh for a long time.

Great choice for lactose intolerant family members
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love how tasty Violife Mexican Style Shreds is in our household, because it melts nicely on tacos which is what I made for the first time I used the product and really works as a great dairy-free cheese substitute, and since it’s 100% dairy-free and lactose-free it’s an excellent option for your lactose-intolerant boyfriend too lol!

It’s lactose free
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You get plenty of cheese in the package. You can be used for many dishes. It can be use for tacos burritos meatloaf potatoes with cheese. It taste just like any other shredded cheese leaves your mouth feeling like you’ve just had creamy cheese. It comes in its own bag with a zip seal.

Not a hit for me!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love the Violife Mexican Style Shreds, but unfortunately it just wasn’t for me. While it melted okay in cooked dishes, the flavor didn’t hit the mark and had an aftertaste I couldn’t get past. The texture was also a bit off compared to what I expect from a Mexican-style cheese blend. I appreciate that it’s dairy-free and vegan-friendly, but taste is a big factor for me, and this one didn’t deliver. I may try it again in a different recipe, but for now it’s not something I’d repurchase.

Cheesy alternative flavorful!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although it doesn’t quite melt like I thought it would, it taste great. The macaroni and cheese was cheese -ing and it tasted fine. The overall household gave it a 3/5!

It’s a convenient shredded cheese that melts well
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s decent and gets the job done. The texture melts fine and it works well for quick meals, but the flavor is pretty mild and not especially memorable. Not bad if you need a convenient shredded cheese, just not my first choice if I’m looking for something with more depth.

Yummy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was gifted the Violife Foods Mexican Sryle Shreds in exchange for my honest review. I love this. We used it on our homeade chili and it gave it such an amazing flavor. I would definitely recommend this Violife Foods Mexican Style Shreds.

A tasty and reliable plant-based option that doesn
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is delicious flavor. They add the perfect cheesy touch to tacos, quesadillas, nachos, and more without overpowering the dish. The texture is spot-on, and it melts evenly, making it easy to use in everyday cooking.

Not my cup of tea.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just not a huge fan of dairy free cheeses. I thought I’d give it a try, but I didn’t like it as much as my normal products. I think it would probably be great for someone that can’t have dairy.

Not the best, good for those who cannot do dairy.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This smells terrible if I am being honest. Does not smell like it was fresh, smelt like rotten milk. My husband took a bit of some and had to spit it out. My oldest son would not even smell it

A hidden surprise.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You know for the longest time Veganism has gotten a pretty gnarly wrap for being bland, flavorless, and downright odd. I too was on the vegan food negativity train. However, after trying this cheese and being able to give it a fair comparison in an actual product I’d eat…. I was pleasantly surprised. The cheese itself looks and feels like cheese when you remove it from the bag and when it melts with the hot ingredients on the inside it’s really hard to tell it’s an alternative. After taking a full bite and really trying to isolate the vegan cheese taste it was impossible to distinguish it. Sure if I had a Mexican blend of cheese and this side by side it would be a little easier, but on its own this hit the mark. There was no odd aftertaste and the aroma wasn’t anything that set me off. Definitely a surprise and I’ll continue to find other ways to mix this into my rotation of meals.

Great cheese alternative
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used this shredded cheese as an additional topping for my salad and I loved it. It’s a little less soft than regular cheese but this didn’t bother me. The flavor is authentic and texture is nice!
