The food industry is flooded with dairy-free milks and creamers, but some other dairy substitute categories are still under-represented. Good Karma Plant-Based Sour Cream aims to reduce this discrepancy. It’s a top food allergy-friendly sour cream substitute that’s reportedly great for topping and baking, and is used as the base for their new creamy dips.
Most dairy-free sour cream alternatives have a flavor or texture that’s slightly off, but Good Karma is promising a smooth, creamy consistency with no funny aftertaste. When you get the chance to try it, leave your own rating and review below. Let us know if you think they hit the mark.

Excellent but no longer in stores
This was the best sour cream ever. I can no longer find it anywhere for over a year now. Meijer used to carry it. Michigan appears completely out of stock months later. Ingredient shortage? Maybe Biden screwed things up again? Please bring it back!
HORRIBLY SWEET!
Luckily, I tried this before putting it on my burrito because it tastes exactly like sweet yogurt, only thicker. I’ve been a vegan for almost 15 years and I’ll stick with Tofutti. This stuff is awful.
Doing g/f d/f regularly each day.
Really tastes like sour cream. Texture is smooth and creamy. Finding the product fresh and clean with a reasonable expiration date..16 days from today. Will purchase again.
Best dairy free sour cream
This is the best vegan sour cream I have found so far. But is hard to find in stores.
Possibly Spoiled?
I bought this at my local Meijer store with an expiration date 7 days from today. But it’s brown upon opening it and smells horrible. Afraid to try it, because pics in your ad show it should be a white color.
I’ve been loving the Vio Life products and was hoping this brand had a decent sour cream.
Why is it sweet?
It tastes like vanilla yogurt.
I really wanted to like it...
It is absolutely awful. Weird smell and the taste is terrible. I ended throwing out the whole thing. Try Forager if you want a decent sour cream substitute.
it's an okay substitute
I’m allergic to dairy, so I have been looking for a good dairy free sour cream. Good Karma takes a little getting used to. It doesn’t quite look, smell or taste like real sour cream. I like to add seasonings to it to make a dip. I add salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, chives and vinegar. I haven’t tried it in cooking yet, but that’s next on my agenda.
Not good
Sorry but this is not sour cream, maybe closer to a yogurt.
Delicious!
Learning to eat healthier is not easy. Most plant food based substitutes are not going to taste like the sour creams, cheeses, milks etc that are loaded with sugar and animal fats which are addictive. Like coffee which few like at first, it takes a short while and you will enjoy the healthier foods. I really like the Good Karma Sour Cream. It is tastier and creamer than others that I have tried.
