It started out as lactose intolerance, but now it feels like any high calorie, fatty food that I put into my body really messes me up

I've had vegan cheese before. It tastes like sad.
Letters And Numbers:
A lot of it’s fine, some of it’s good. Cashew based nut cheeses can be really tasty, especially when you treat them like a soft cheese with fruit and honey and stuff like that mixed in. Kinda heavy though and not the easiest on the stomach always.
Some of the potato starch based cheeses are more like American cheese, but pretty good American cheese and they melt well. Very much not bad.
Munchies:
The vegan cheeses where I live are either soy or olive oil based. Perhaps you live in an area where the pickings are better.
Letters And Numbers:
When you have a weird diet you develop a sixth sense for finding the weird stuff you like.
Cashew cheese you can make with a food processor, though. It’s literally cashews, water, and a pinch of salt. You can use it like a ricotta but it is heavy so a little goes a long way for some folks.
No, I feel you. I have an autoimmune disorder which makes it hard to tolerate a lot of foods. But I also grew up and live in small cities where pickings can be lil slim in terms of food diversity.
If you say that cashew cheese is good, I'll trust you on it. But the soy and olive oil based stuff melts weird and tastes ... sour.
