Correction in Issue 2 2017
We greatly apologize for an error in the vegan cheese chart on page 13 of Issue 2 2017. Under Slices, where Field Roast Chao Slices is listed, the Protein amount should have been 0 g (not 4.5 g) and the Fat amount should have been 4.5g (not 4 g).
A Guide to Vegan Cheese
Thank you for your recent article, A Guide to Vegan Cheese. I was surprised that you did not include the Follow Your Heart brand block cheese. It was included in the PDF that you referenced at the end of the article but, I feel, it should have been in the main article as it is such a superior product. Most of the vegan cheeses in the article, other than the Daiya products have never been at the Whole Foods stores that are in my area (Union and Essex counties in New Jersey). The Follow Your Heart slices were referenced and they are nowhere near the high quality of the blocks.
Just my opinion. Keep up your excellent work.

Editor's Note: Unfortunately, due to space constraints in every issue of Vegetarian Journal, we were only able to run some of the charts found in the PDF version of this article, and made an effort to feature a variety of companies.
