Well then, if they can't make plant based cheese that tastes exactly like dairy cheese we're doomed (FFS)

Don't believe the losers that say science is impossible

"Photosynthesis"

Plants have evolved to do that already! That's also why it's far better for the environment to eat plant & fungi based diets. Less energy (fewer resources) is lost (used) by eating the plants inc. the milks that are made from plants. Compared to eating the animals that eat the plants

FYI, if they can produce plant based burgers that have the texture & tastes like beef, then l see no reason why they can't do the same with a plant based cheese.

Food is chemicals (chemistry)

I hear you!

Whilst I've tried some plant based cheese they haven't been comparably to dairy cheese.

I live with few people that, whilst they generally eat a 90% vegan diet, drink dairy milk & eat cheese (so kept in the fridge)

The only food l used to eat that l sometimes 'crave' is cheese & fried eggs. So yea, l still occasionally eat a vegy & cheese pizza & have the odd fried egg

I'm not religious about my diet. But, I don't miss meat at all - the alternatives are satisfying

Also, in general, eating no or less meat and dairy can be a healthier diet https://gimletmedia.com/shows/science-vs/6nh87mb/vegans-are-they-right
