Not 100% sure that vegan-labeled products are vegan; tofu seemed odd and not that tasty

Strange service, communications, doesn't seem entirely sanitary or ethical (not to my standards).

I saw an ad on GGA insta that they made vegan cheese. I bought the cheese house-made tofu, which both came in bags without any information.

At home I unpacked. The cheese was firm, looked like a cut piece from a large block of ordinary cow's cheese from supermarkets. On the sides there was fine mesh, that cow's cheeses had. I tasted… no different from cow's milk cheese. Taste, smell like non-vegan. I melted it, it melted and stretched just like cow cheese, with long thin fibers more than 20 cm long. The creamy smell intensified, as it happened with non-vegan cheeses. Maybe it is vegan cheese, maybe it is cow's cheese. I don't trust it, so I would not buy it again or recommend it. As there are no nutritional facts on the plastic, I cannot tell. My husband is allergic to dairy and I do not want to risk it.

The tofu itself was bitter tasting and I couldn't eat it. I wrote to the store/owner and was recommended to wash the tofu before using. That seemed weird to me, so I decided I would not eat it.

I asked for nutritional facts and ingredient composition of both the tofu and the cheese, but was only given nutritional information for brownies, despite asking several times.

I wouldn't get vegan products from this store again, as the ingredients and composition are not clear to me and the quality is not up to my taste.

Armenian products

Nice little shop, where one can fund looots of local herbs, organic soap/shampoo/etc, plus some soy products.
Also there's a fridge with local milk products.

Pros: Many vegan and organic products, Organic cosmetics, Local herbs
