It isn’t string cheese, but Daiya Deluxe Cheeze Sticks are a snackable way to enjoy a cheesy bite without dairy. In fact, they’re vegan and made free from the top allergens. They’re even pea protein-free, for those who have legume issues, and they come in two familiar varieties.
Daiya Deluxe Cheeze Sticks Offer Two Ways to Snack Dairy-Free
You can snack on these cheesy sticks cold or use them in easy recipes. We’ve heard that they work great as crunchy mozzarella sticks or baked into bread. You could even use them to make a simple stuffed crust! If you’ve tried them, don’t forget to leave your own rating and review below! It helps others to make an informed dairy-free purchasing decision.
Take note that the Cheeze Sticks do have a slightly different formula from the other Daiya cheeze products. They are most similar to their Slices, with just a few very small variations – like the use of potato protein instead of pea protein. You can see the full ingredient lists for each flavor below.

Cheddar sticks
They’re good. I just ate 2; 1 with an apple (very tasty) and 1 by itself. They are not identical to regular cheddar sticks, but they are similar and just as good tasting.
Pretty good!
I don’t normally like Daiya products but their cheese sticks aren’t bad at all!! I enjoy both flavours 🙂
Taste like dairy cheese
My kids love them. Wegman’s have them in their vegan dairy area
Where to buy
Would love to be able to buy these. It’s not fair to my youngest she cant do regular cheese sticks and cries because she cant eat then. When do you think they will make it to meijer.
Response from Go Dairy Free
J.P. if you go to Daiya’s product finder here -> https://daiyafoods.com/find-us/where-to-buy/ – you can use the “filter search results” pull down and pick the cheese sticks. That will help you find them in your area more easily.

Response from Go Dairy Free
I don’t, but you might want to contact the company! It’s pretty rare that I see coupons for this brand.
