This is the second Cheeze & Thank You vegan cheese I’ve tried, the first being their mustard seed smoked gouda, which I really enjoyed. This is nothing like that, conceptually, so I was skeptical but had high hopes for it.


I think my sentiments/expectation were on point/met. Herbed feta, in general, is not something I would like as much as a mustard seed smoked gouda and this product doesn’t change that. My skepticism for me liking the flavor was valid, but my high hopes were met because Cheeze & Thank You’s Herbed Feta is good and tasty. It has a salty-ish hit and the herb punch does come through. It’s a flaky, brittle cheese. I would say it is more feta-like texturally/taste-wise than the Violife feta, but…not completely. I think if you fused the two products, then it would be fantastic. This is more than fine on its own. The texture is soft, but the flavor is not.

So I would recommend the Cheeze & Thank You Herbed Feta, knowing that, well, it’ll taste like vegan herbed feta. I personally would always go for the gouda over this, but that’s my personal preference. This is good anyway and has purpose/value in its own way. Excited to try more flavors from this brand.
