Fake cheese, also known as cheese alternative or non-dairy cheese, is a manufactured product designed to mimic the taste, texture, and appearance of traditional cheese. Typically made from ingredients such as plant-based oils, starches, nuts, soy, or other protein sources, fake cheese is often free of lactose and animal products, making it suitable for vegan and dairy-free diets. It traces its origins to modern food science, catering to dietary restrictions and sustainable eating trends. While fake cheese can offer lower cholesterol and fewer animal-derived saturated fats compared to traditional cheese, many varieties are heavily processed and may contain high sodium levels, preservatives, or artificial flavors. Nutritional profiles and ingredient quality vary widely among brands, with some opting for natural and whole food components. Popular in vegan recipes, global cuisines, or allergy-friendly meals, fake cheese provides a versatile option for cheese lovers seeking alternatives.
