@@joybrooks564 I have bought the So Delicious from Whole Foods. You also may be able to get it on Amazon at the right time if you have Prime, but a lot of things have been out of stock lately. It melted pretty well, but I didn't love the taste. It was too strong for me, but my bf liked it. I am also not a fan of Violife either, because it also has a strong taste to me and tastes like butter! Since you like Violife, maybe you might like So Delicious too? I have only found the Good Planet at a store near me called Wegmans. Even though this one doesn't melt as well, I love the lighter taste of this one and it is one of my favorites. My bf and I love Whole Foods brand also. Since they don't melt well, I sometimes give them a head start and melt them a bit in a pan before adding it to pizza and it melts easier. They melt no problem in the microwave or in a pan. The melt and stretch of the Trader Joes/Aldi looked amazing! I need to try either of these next. If you can't find either the So Delicious or Good Planet anywhere near you, you can order them from Vegan Essentials online. They have many others too. I've ordered many things from them over the years. They also offer a lot of different vegan options that you probably can't find in your local stores either. They have excellent customer service and package your items so well - in a styrofoam container inside a heavy duty box and if you purchase the ice packs they include a lot of them and they are reusable. I get the 3 day shipping because they are far from me and that shipping cost is the most reasonable. The stuff arrives cold even in the summer! I'm actually expecting an order to be delivered tomorrow! 😊 I am trying a new one I've never seen near me that supposedly melts well - Nabati mozzarella shreds. Another KZbinr reviewed it a while ago (WorldOfRandomStuff) and it melted just like cheese and even browned like cheese! It looked amazing and I can't wait to try it! If you haven't been able to try the Sweet Earth chickn, you need to order these from them! They are the most realistic chickn my family and I have ever had so far. I have found many of their meal bowls with the chickn pieces, but I can't find just these plain pieces anywhere except on their site. I want the plain pieces to cook them how I want. Their texture is incredible and they are just like chicken. I either marinate them and saute them in a pan, or bread and fry them. My bf prefers the marinated and sautéed way, because I burn them a bit and they come out just like the chicken dishes you get from a Chinese restaurant in the mall. I also tried making my own Bourbon sauce like the mall has, and it was really good, but it wasn't exactly the same. I am still trying to figure out how they make it! I can't find any recipe or product online that is exactly the same so far, and even if people say it's close it's not! I think I'm going to ask the Chinese restaurant in my mall if they buy the sauce or make it themselves lol..

For the ones that didn’t give you a good melt you should try melting it just a tad before adding it to the pizza. There’s a vegan special on Netflix and they spoke on about getting the right vegan cheese for pizza. And the one solution they had was liquid cheese so if you have any of the brands that don’t melt as well just try melting it a little before adding it to your pizza so when it does bake it should melt more to your liking. Trial and error 🫶🏾
