ISO "almond cheese" in the GTA...curious what does it taste like

I am trying to avoid dairy.
Is almond based "cheese" any good?
wondering where to find it in Torono and what kind of taste it might be like.
thanks!

        damn, too bad!

        did a quick google search for "amond cheese" and tons of hits came up for DIY almond cheese. interesting...

          aside from the DIY cheese recipes, found this link. looks like you would have to mailorder. this one is actually aged!
