Dairy free is truly going mainstream. Walmart is now carrying their own store brand of vegan cheese alternative, giving us hope that affordable alternatives are here to stay. Great Value Plant Based Cheese Shreds are available in three staple vegan varieties: Mozzarella, Cheddar, and Mozzarella Cheddar. Each package is free of added proteins, made without top allergens, and sold for a budget-friendly price.

Who Makes Great Value Dairy-Free Cheese Shreds?
Stores like Walmart rarely make their own store brand products. Instead, companies that make the products already package them in the brand packaging for the store. We can’t say for sure who makes these shreds, but the ingredients are very similar to Violife and Good Planet cheese alternatives. So they will likely taste and melt similarly.
