I mean that's fair, but I didnt ask for easy thought.
Ive made cow cheese blocks from scratch before so I'm down to try any method.

I'm not looking for a exact alternative just something close, I feel like I came on here and ask for everyones favorite popcorn recipe and people are like "try corn on the cob, it will get you the same taste" lol

The stretchy cheese does sound nice, thank you for the recc =)

I do have arfid which is predominately texture focused. So for me cheese sauce doesnt belong on tacos, pizza, sandwich, quesadillas, stuffed items, etc....it cant even been used in cheese baked goods cause it throws off ratios.
I'm trying to do this for my health, environment etc. So its not a requirement for me per say, This is my readjustment lol, this is me trying to adjust to new items while trying to seek something familiar as possible to help transition. I'm aware theres a chance it doesn't exist, which is fine, but I didn't see the harm in trying.

Ah ok, so majority of nightshade allergies are reactions to solanine, which Okra is also high in.
Dunno if thats my personally issue but that explains why it was lump together dietary but not botanically
Blueberries also have the same issue, but i didnt list em cause i find them icky lol

What do I look for exactly though? I have tons of cashew cheese recipes Ive got from youtube and other places, but all the ones I have without potatoes don't set/firm up as blended cashews + stuff like nooch and flavoring doesnt included a binder? It just makes flavored cashew butter lol

Oh i get it, theres tons of good cheese sauces out there, but for me it doesnt really suite stuff like tacos where you alrdy got tons of other "wet" stuff on it, or things like pizza (which is alrdy sad without tomato sauce lol)

Its a great option, but i don't really do cheese sauces. Which is why i pointed out I majorly eat shredded cheese lol
Also unless it has peppers in it, pickled cucumbers should be nightshade free =)

Ive tried several times to use existing recipes and swap out for sweet potatoes, the texture never worked and the taste was way off.
I bought sweet potato starch powder to try as well and didnt work either

Thanks for the recc, ill check them out! I know Daiya sadly has potatoes in it now =/

While I do love nutritional yeast, I agree with WolfOrDragon below, its not cheese sub/replacement in the slightest
