I didn't bother to vote as I was unaware of so many--but--I think Chao cheese tastes of vomit, and Foragers cashew yogurt was beyond awful, and speaking of Beyond, now that it has avocado oil I doubt I will be able to eat it as I'm allergic to avocado
I tried Gardein expensive chik'n filets hoping for a fried chik'n taste and very disappointed
Surprised that Billie Eilish didn't make the top three

But my favorite Black Forager did! Alexis Nikole, as well as Dr Greger!

No accouting for taste.

I think Chao cheese tastes of vomit,

It's my favorite.

and Foragers cashew yogurt was beyond awful,

Haven't had any yogurt in a long time, so it's been a long time since I had that brand but if I remember right, it was pretty good.

and speaking of Beyond, now that it has avocado oil I doubt I will be able to eat it as I'm allergic to avocado

Haven't had the new ones yet.

I tried Gardein expensive chik'n filets hoping for a fried chik'n taste and very disappointed

Haven't had that either. I'm going to try it out.

Sure there's no accounting for taste. I express my dislike the same as I express my likes! Too often I've gotten caught up in the great reviews of food and am sooo disppointed. I like when people describe what they like & dislike about foods. Like Chao--that was touted as the best vegan cheese I had to try it a second time--and both tasted like vomit to me. I do like Violife a lot. Gardien was ok, but it didn't have enough of a fried chick'n breading, or texture even, and too expensive. Forager was quite some time ago, didn't taste at all like yogurt to me. I love Silk soy, both plain and vanilla, and the plain tastes like my homemade.
