If you make your own raw vegan cheese, like many of the cheese recipes in Alissa's LIVING ON LIVE FOOD (http://www.alissacohen.com/books.html), then yes they are raw.

If you could tell me specifically which cheese you are talking about, I can better assist you. I sure hope you don't mean dairy cheese, because this is a vegan board.

No worries, if you don't ask, you don't learn. Every so often we have some come through trying to talk about goat's milk, etc., but they soon learn that this site is about raw vegan foods.

yes, even raw dairy makes me have a lot of mucas in my throat among other things. I try to avoid.

I have recenlty been trying raw nut cheeses/pates and they are great! Look at Alissa book and also Cherie Soria at The Living Light Institute is big into makeing fermented raw nut cheese if you want more recipes.

Raw nut cheese and pates are not only so good for us (especially compared to dairy products) but I find I like them so much more!

There is one listed on this site under "Rich Cheddar Cheese Sauce" and Alissa's Nacho Cheese is just fabulous. I am a nut cheese lover!
