Why does cheese made from soy milk not taste like cheese made from cow’s milk?
What is in milk that makes cheese taste good and give it that cheesy flavor and is it possible to recreate it without milk?

This is asking why doesn’t broccoli slaw taste like coleslaw? It’s basically the same thing, but made with totally different ingredients. Soy will never taste like dairy, because (insert shocked Pikachu meme) soy isn’t dairy. Why doesn’t kale taste like chocolate cake?? Because it’s entirely different.
