Any brand recommendations?
Plenty of vegan cheese at Spinneys Mercato. Re the veggie burgers, DH prefers Morningstar Tomato Basil Burger (Choithrams or Safestway) and Boca Burger (most flavors) (Choithram/ Safestway). DH is the veggie. We tried Linda McCartney frozen veggie sausages recently, they're crumbly like sausage made from minced meat and have a nice sage/marjoram flavor (Safestway/Choithrams).

Hi Cheezu. So today I was in the Organic in the Dubai Mall and only zoomed through and a quick glance at the 'dairy' fridge I couldnt see the cheeses (only organic dairy; goats etc) But last week there were LOADS of them in The Greens branch so perhaps try there first. I just assumed everything would be at the bigger branch


Thanks for the update, hilsbils!
Will be going on the weekend.

Choithrams in DSO stocks Daiya cheese which is delish.

Different spinneys stock different produce depending on where they are located and who lives in that area.

Choithrams opp Safa Park sells the full range of Quorn, also a ton of cheeses made from almond milk.

Vegan cheese also at Spinneys.

Safestway, Choithrams, C4 all sell frozen veggie sausages and veggie hamburger patties, veggie mince.

Last weekend at the Organic I spotted vegan cheese - maybe 3 types - cheddar, edam etc in their fridges. They sell some delicious vegetarian chicken nuggets, fillets and sausages but I dont know if they are vegan specifically. Not sure if Linda McCartneys veggie sausages etc are vegan but I buy them in the Al Maya shops.


Oh, really? I must look then.
The last time I was there I forgot to and when I checked their website I couldn't find anything of the sort.
Will go there tomorrow then. =)

elk..... I get quorn sausages and other products in Spinneys / Waitrose (cant remember which! but they are in my freezer as I type) Al Maya also stocks a surprising number of products like that

Hi everyone...
Is there any place that sells vegan meats and cheese in Dubai?
I looked around various supermarkets and the only thing I could find was tofu cheese.
I thought the Organic Foods and Cafe might have it but I looked on their website and couldn't find it either so don't know if there's a point in driving all the way there.
