Got an idea for next month's banner?
Daiya cheese has a good taste and texture, across their varieties. My family even prefers their smoked Gouda to the dairy Gouda. None of the varieties melt quite like dairy cheese, but it's a small price to pay.
Dairy causes my rheumatoid arthritis and colitis to flare up, so I've had to find alternatives.
Looks interesting, though a quick search doesn't turn up anyone selling it in New Zealand yet.

Even some in Countdown! Angel Food Cheese (made in NZ) and Veesey Cheese (product of Greece) - at $35.90 and $43.50 a kilo! I might try a small block (220g @ $7.90) of the Angel Food Cheddar Cheese just out of curiosity? Hopefully, in time, competition might drive the prices down a bit?
