They've got several products. I've also tried the Better Than Cream Cheese, which is great to be added into creamy pasta, or as a substitute to cream cheese for making vegan red velvet cake, or just eaten with a slice of bread/crackers) and the cheese slices - also bought from Australia. They do sell vegan slice cheese here but it's very expensive (RM20+ per pack of 12 slices).

Yup, I stocked up real good when I visited, and it's precious commodity for me! :-) it was SO exciting when I found them in their supermarkets!
