Margarine is essentially vegan and a pretty ok substitute. I’ve had vegan butter that was also not terrible. Country crock makes some plant based cream that I actually very much like whipped cream from. My wife makes this stabilized whipped cream (think cream and instant pudding) that is absolutely amazing. Now cheese… that’s a totally different story. It always tastes like plastic to me. And don’t get me started on cream cheese. My wife tried to make a vegan cheese cake once. Let’s just say it didn’t go so well.
What made it easy for me to change to vegan cheese was raising that there're so many different varieties of cheese that all taste different to each other, and realising that vegan cheese is just more amongst them, each also tasting different between them.
That and at the time of me making the transition my local supermarket had a vegan wensleydale and cranberries which has always been my favourite cheese. So having an alternative for that made it much easier for me.
This is very true.
