It has been a long time since I had actual sour cream so I cannot remember what it tastes like but to me, this vegan sour cream version is amazing.
I was first introduced to it when we owned the restaurant. We would add it as a topping to soups, potatoes, chili, vegan quesadilla, tacos, nachos and more.
