Does Good Planet Olive Oil Cheese Shreds Melt?

Yes! Very nicely I might add! It spreads out and is really gooey, but not that stick on your mouth feel that many non-dairy cheeses have. We put more on the mozzarella side and less on the cheddar side when melting.

What we found is that less is more. You don’t need a lot to get good coverage and good melt. The more you put on the more that you might have to cook in order to get a good melt.

Overall Thoughts

There’s a few things that we want to call out.

  • Overall, we love the taste and flavor of this new olive oil non-dairy cheese from Good Planet. We think they have done an amazing job!
  • The cheese cubes and blocks have different names, but they taste and appear by ingredient to be the exact same products. We prefer the look of the blocks over the cubes, so like would purchase blocks in the future and cut ourselves.
  • The shredded cheese melted really well. Less was more. It also didn’t leave a weird sticky texture to your mouth which is great.
  • There was no weird after taste with any of the products.
  • There are no top 9 allergens in ANY of the new olive oil cheese products which is AMAZING for our friends who need allergen friendly options.
  • The blocks taste great with crackers. As someone who doesn’t like olives, I enjoyed the olive feta with crackers.
  • The feta doesn’t crumble like dairy feta.
  • These products would be amazing additions to vegan charcuterie boards.

  1. Hello,
    Thank you for reviewing these olive oil cheeses! I just tried the Feta and Olive block and was pleasantly surprised. I’m looking forward to trying the shredded mozzarella. I appreciate your review, so I won’t feel I’ll be wasting money on a product that I won’t like.
