I finally made the switch to dairy free 'milk' in the form of Sainsburys own 'oat drink' which I am amazed by. I already prefer it to milk on cereal and in coffee and tea. The amount I bang on about environmental issues, I should have done this years ago (shame on me), but it's partly a possible health reason that actually triggered me into doing it.
Question: Does anyone have any recommendations for a dairy-free 'butter' substitute? I've tried Bertolli (which actually has some milk in anyway, by the look of things), but I find it has a really nasty aftertaste.
What about 'cheeses'?
Cheese... sorry, cheers.

Flora original.
Agree about oat milk on cereal. It's amazing. |  |

If you are a fan of latte / milky coffees highly recommend Alpro Barista Oat. Lovely stuff and for a dedicated milk fan, it takes a lot for me to enjoy alternatives. |  |

Oak Milk is lovely. If anyone is in the market I would also recomment the CO-OP GRO range, quite a bit cheaper than some of the branded alternatives and has a really good taste.
Re. cheese, this is a topic that's come up on here before and I really struggle with dairy free cheeses. Was involved in them for work for a period so literally spent my days trying SO many with a view to some acquisitions and there's some horrible ones out there. I think when somebody nails a really good Cheddar without any compromise, they'll kill it. |  |

Did you try the white cheddar-style Cheezly? (the original with soya & potato, not their new soy-free one, haven't tried that as allergic to coconut).
If someone blind-tested me on the original v. good quality real cheddar, not sure I'd be able to taste the difference. [Post edited 23 Mar 2022 14:40]

You might want to try Alpro unsweetened. Some ethical issues raised about them last time I mentioned them but their unsweetened oat milk is great and I found it was the sweetness which was putting me off using it in drinks before discovering that. | |

You should try that 'oat drink' with porridge. It will blow your mind. |  |

yes, once you swap to non-dairy milk, whenever you go back to milk extracted from cows it tastes really greasy & claggy, weird how tastes change | |

I can't say it rang any bells so I just googled it, I do recognise the packaging but not sure if I'm confusing it with Sheeze, who are based up on the Isle of Bute. They got snapped up for a lot of money by an American company IIRC.
I've just ordered some, I needed a few other bits anyway. Looking forward to trying, thanks for the tip. | |

Mature cheese - Violife Mature or Koko.
Spread - Sainsburys Garlic and Herb.
Blue - I think it was Sainsburys who did the best or maybe Tesco.
Applewood Smoked and Mexicana Chilli ones are good. |  |
