Question: What is a vegan cream cheese besides tofutti?
Tofutti brand is the only one at the store, i bought it without looking at the label and got home and realized it has TWO grams of trans fat per serving, which was either 1 or 2 tb! People are better off eating dairy than trans fat. Also that brand tasted like GLUE.

Any other brands that are trans fat free and taste good?

7% trans fat does seem a bit excessive, doesn't it? And on top of that, there's also 7% saturated fat, and a grand total of 28.5% fat altogether (so, nearly half of the fat content is "naughty" fat). That's pretty high. Not as high as most (dairy) cheeses on the market, but still fractionally higher than a lot of fried snacks. I suppose you'd need to look at how much you actually use. I doubt that I would use as much as two tablespoons of that stuff in one go, and I certainly wouldn't use it every day - perhaps once a week, but probably even less. I can't comment on the "glue" taste. The plain one is fairly bland, just like tofu is, so I'd always mix something else with it on the sandwich to give it flavour. There are flavoured varieties too - onion and herbs are two that I've seen. I haven't seen any other brands around, but I live Down Under, and Tofutti is the only brand we've imported here so far - that I know of.



Like "Spiderman 4", I'm from Australia and have only seen plain Tofutti here. I eat it occasionally with fresh chives mixed in, and it tastes OK. But there is no way I'd use 2 tablespoonsful.
