Trader Joe's Vegan Creamy Dill Dressing Review
She says (Bridget): This is a little of a mixed bag, er, bottle. We
tried this on two salads and also as a dip. The dressing itself is tasty, if a
bit runny. I don't think it lives up to the "creamy" moniker. Just because
cauliflower is white doesn't make it creamy. (While we're at it, it also isn't
rice.) Taste-wise, it's good but a little bland. It's nice for dipping veggies
like cucumbers and tomatoes but was overpowered by a cracker. There's not
enough OOMPH in the dressing to stand up to a salad. The flavors in the
dressing are just too subdued.
Overall rating:
2.5 out of 5 stars as a dressing
3.5 out of 5 stars as a veggie dip
He says (Mark): Love the ingredients list - it reads like a Who's
Who of produce I enjoy: cauliflower, garlic, parsley, shallot, chives, etc.
The creamy texture has a bit of potato-soup-like feel. The color and visual
appeal are excellent. I'm sorry to say that I didn't enjoy it as much as I
hoped. The dressing does not stand out in the flavor department ("….paging the
manager…low-tastiness on aisle 5"). While I always taste before adding pepper
and salt to my food, this needed too much to boost it to my liking.
Overall rating: 2 out of 5 stars
Will we buy this again? No. We'll try another!
Trader Joe's Vegan Creamy Dill Dressing: Not a hit. I (Bridget)
blame the cauliflower.

I found this dressing to be a godsend. It is perfect for those of us who have to watch the sodium and can’t have dairy. By careful living I have not over salted my taste buds and killed them like so many tv cooks I see. You can always add salt but you can’t get rid of it.
I was surprised to read the comments, years ago the discontinued lemon dill sauce was amazing, I guess I'll have to try this one.
