I ate the vegan cream cheese without dramatic negative effects. …yet. However it’s way too expensive to buy regularly and didn’t have much in the way of nutrition.

I’m going to have to work out if I can eat tofu. If I can that’s a lot cheaper, higher protein, and can be used to make both ‘cream cheese’ and ‘ice cream’. (I know cashews are an option but way too expensive.) Silken tofu is higher FOD MAPs but well blended firm tofu might be ok?
