Violife Greek White (Vegan Feta Alternative) — ENGINEERED
Munch or Dump rates Violife Greek White (Vegan Feta Alternative) by Violife ENGINEERED — score 30/90.
This isn't cheese, it's refined coconut oil and starch flavored to taste like feta. It's a lab-built product, not a whole food.
Why this verdict
- 29% coconut oil means it's mostly saturated fat with essentially zero protein
- Built from refined coconut oil plus starch and flavourings to imitate cheese, not a real food
- NOVA 4 ultra-processed formula despite the short ingredient list
- Delivers fat and salt with no meaningful nutritional payoff
Ingredients (8)
- Water (safe) — Added back as a filler/texture agent; harmless but dilutes.
- Coconut Oil (29%) (moderate) — Very high in saturated fat; a refined oil that's the fat backbone of this fake cheese.
- Starch (moderate) — Refined binder, another quick-digesting carbohydrate.
- Sea Salt (safe) — Small amount for flavor balance.
- Glucono Delta Lactone (acidity regulator) (safe) — A mild food acid that gives the tangy bite; benign in these amounts.
- Flavourings (moderate) — Non-specific flavour additives; vague labelling despite a 'no artificial flavours' claim.
- Olive extract (safe) — Used for flavor/antioxidant effect; a small plant-derived touch.
- vitamin B12 (safe) — Added vitamin; the source of the high-in-B12 badge, useful for vegans.
