I was going to post the nacho nut cheese recipe that I used to make. I no
longer have that book and can't seem to find the exact one. I thought mine
called for the addition of an orange or maybe it was just the juice of one.
This one calls for lemon juice. Otherwise it is very similar. I did not
use dried red peppers though. I used jalapenos. Mine was usually less
runny and thick enough to pack into baby vegetables but it was good with
chips too. Everyone who tried it liked it. I intend to poke around at this
website as the recipes look really good! I have gotten similar cheese
online and Whole Foods also carries it but it is expensive. And before
anyone starts with me, telling me that those cashews aren't really raw, yes.
I do know this. So here's the recipe:

Interesting, thanks. I wonder where I can get nutritional yeast.

By the way, when one makes chicken stock from a stock cube, what one
tastes isn't chicken, but nutritional yeast. They only add a bit of
flavourless "chicken powder" to the cube, so they're allowed to call
it chicken stock.

Why this is called a "cheese" sauce is beyond my ken. There is NO cheese in it whatsoever. Cheese is a DAIRY product.

Health food stores will usually sell it. Around here, it is available at
some grocery stores because we do have a good percentage of vegans who live
here. Keep in mind that if you truly want it to be vegan, check the label.
There is one brand that says "may contain dairy" or some such thing. You
can also buy it online. My only complaint with it is that I can never use
the whole container before it goes bad. I don't use it for many things.
Stuffed baked potato is another thing I used to use it in. Haven't made
those recently because I haven't found a "milk" that I can use. I did find
an oat milk but I'm not sure I would want that flavor in there.

Not always. There are plenty of vegan cheeses. I can remember eating Linda
McCartney frozen dinners in the 80's and they used soy cheese. I didn't
normally buy frozen food but somehow I did get one and loved it. Then not
long after, what was then a new Safeway had them on clearance for something
like 10 cents each. I couldn't believe it! I bought all of what they had
left. That was only the second time I saw them for sale. Never saw them
again. And I wasn't so much into the habit of checking ingredients in those
days. For one thing, nutrition and ingredient labels were not the same as
they are today. But I did happen to glance after I had eaten several of
them and was floored to see soy cheese on there. However, not all soy
cheese is vegan. Now why they would put dairy in an alternate cheese is
beyond me. If you can eat dairy, just eat real cheese!

Well, okay, this is weird. Apparently they are available now in the UK but
they are not the same ones that I bought. IIRC, mine were all pasta dishes,
but there may have been rice. Certainly no faux meats. I just found a
Facebook group for them and they say that they will once again be available
in the US and also Canada but the people in that group don't seem to know
that they were once sold here. I wonder if we were a target market or
something? I remember discussing the meals with a man in Safeway. Actually
his cart is what led me to buy the rest of them. I noticed that he had a
lot of them in his cart and I mentioned that I too liked them. He told me
to go buy the rest because they were so cheap. So I did. Anyway... Here's
one link about them. There are many others. I suppose it is possible that
I bought them in the early 90's. I really can't remember the year when that
store opened. Or where I was living when I bought the meals.

I'm a meat eater and I've never felt threatened by the
veggie-only crowd. I eat (and enjoy) meatless meals often myself.

Are you saying that the "veggie kids" are morally superior to
meateaters? Or are you saying that Julie is morally superior to
Steve?

Vegetarians are not morally superior to meat eaters. They are like
religious people who just assume that they are.

Incase you hadn't noticed, no one here seems to be vapid enough to
espouse all of us should be vegan or vegetarian. We have however
always had some here who are vegetarian or close to it.

My family is what might be termed 'low meat eaters' meaning we do eat
it, but we eat smaller amounts per day than typical in the USA.

Nevertheless: post something vegan or vegetarian in this group, and
you'll get an unfriendly reaction.

I forgot the smiley. Kids just eat what their parents give them. But I
do think meat eaters are behind in moral development :) A bit like
people who continued slavery after they could have known better.

Your woman abuse is as grotesque, unprovoked, and ugly as anything
anyone in this medium has ever done.

You are a pathological woman-hater and a deeply disturbed and wounded
little man:

Planet Bove eat. We'll need to add this to the Planet Bove Wikipedia

I thought you were here just to talk about cooking? You've only said

off-topic subjects.

Way to go, Julie! You beat her down into speechlessness.

You seem to have a problem remembering things. Maybe you should have

You can't rent this stuff at Red Box.

That wasn't your original argument. Your argument was that you
couldn't remember where you got them. Then when somebody tells you
how to solve that problem, you come up with a different argument to
explain why the proposed solution won't work.

Same 'ol song and dance.

So WTF are you basing your unfounded theories on? Angela was about 3
years old and you had left grade school decades earlier. What would
have been your direct experience with the New York public school
system in the early 2000's?

What I'm trying to say is that Julie is full of shit again. It's
amazing how much time Julie spends describing her miserable fantasy
world.

Good. Just checking... <G>

Which reminds me that I still have some salmon in the freezer - not
something I normally do (freeze fish) but had a ton of it at the time.
Maybe I could put it in the smoker and then make a spread similar to
deviled ham with it...

And I found it. That's very nice stuff! Almost too good to be vegan, I
mean to be true. And it didn't require killing young bulls or
separating newborn calves from their mother.
