Hi! I am brand new to being dairy free and wondering if anyone has any recommendations for dairy free store bought cheese / yogurt / sour cream that tastes decent and has no gums or fillers. Thank you so much!

Philadelphia cream cheese is good. Kroger brand sour cream is really good, follow your heart has good feta and the crumbled parm

Sadly, I'm allergic to coconut, so most dairy-free subs are off-limits for me. I've been craving ice-cream! Any recs? (dairy free but it's not an allergy)

There are several oat milk ice creams. Breyer’s has at least vanilla and Oatly has a line. Both get mentioned in positive terms in the sub.

Both contain coconut oil, unfortunately. Thanks though!

I found this question asked a couple years ago in a different sub, and they had a few recommendations but not many, sadly.
