On vegan 'cheeses', I find only some of the newer ones worthwhile as 'cheese'. The others are a completely different foodstuff and OK in their own right (very disappointing if you expect something like dairy cheese), but I've always thought they're not really cheese--for me, the process of production has to involve fermentation as a minimum. This is the case with the newer cashew nut cheeses, for which I'm happy to use the word 'cheese'. Try Mouse's Favourite or Essential Vegan (both available at Green Bay in North End Road). Those are already pretty good and will undoubtedly improve. Some of the pizza cheeses are all right. I've just been told that there's a vegan 'cheese' that's locally produced used in Apollo Pizza in Stoke Newington, an otherwise omnivorous pizzeria. The person who told me said they loved it, so I'll probably go and try that sometime soon.
