Garlic & Herb Plant Based Cheese, 4.5 OZ
What You Should Know
You’d spot this in the refrigerated plant-based cheese or specialty cheese section, grabbed for weekend brunch, crackers, or a quick sandwich spread. It reads as a light, slightly indulgent and convenient alternative to traditional cream cheese with a familiar Laughing Cow wedge vibe. The ingredient list (modified food starch, multiple industrial oils, pea protein, emulsifiers, natural flavors and additives) points to ultra-processing designed to create a smooth, stable, spreadable texture rather than a minimally processed whole-food product.
