vegetarian cheese (as it is called) is normal cheeses with non animal

rennit...so it is vegetarian because of this...vegetarian means we don`t cut

the throats, we just steal their kids and suck their breasts

Hi there,

Yes, the vegetarian cheese is NOT vegan, but there are some cheeses here

that are; " Cheezly " for example. There are some other sorts as well, but I

usually buy the Cheezly-ones.

I can recommend it if you like to have a vegan cheese alternative, you can

get it with garlic and bacon(!) flawour as well. The bacon one got me a bit

afraid that the flawour actually come from meat, but I've been insured that

it's not!

 

Don't you have anything like that where you live? Do you have soya milk or

soya icecream & similar things?

 

LOVE

Sandra

Yeah the cheezly one is by far the best one I have tryed but if you like

soft cheese there is one called..better than cream cheese...cant recall who

makes it but you can also get different versions such as garlic or onion and

chive..very nice.

As for the bacon one...I would`nt recoment it to any pregnant women out

there..since I have become pregnant it makes me want to puke.

Hi Sandra,

Portugal used to be vegan's hell, but it is rapidly changing.

We can now get soy ice-cream, milk, cream, etc., vegan pizzas and all sorts

of ready made meals. But vegan cheese is still missing.

Thank you for your suggestions. Could you tell me if I can buy any of those

products through the internet?

My best regards

Joana Fisher

Hi Joanna,

 

I'll try to check it up for you, it might be possible to buy the cheese from

internet. The only thing is how it can be send to you, it needs to be

refridgerated (right spelling?).

 

I'm glad to hear that you are able to get some vegan food down there as

well. How is it with eating out? Do they have a good selection of vegan food

in the restaurants?

 

LOVE

Sandra

Hi,

Is Scheese the little compact white round one? I've tried that one (if it

is!). It's the only one they had available in Sweden when I lived there and

I like that one to, but think Cheezly tastes more and melts a bit better!

 

LOVE

Sandra

Cheezly definately is the best melter...as I said before...if you grate

cheezly in to a bowl, add a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil, some

yeast pate (or chopped onions, stuffed olives, red pepper, etc), mix it all

up and then spread it onto two slices of bread (to avoid burning try and

cover all the bread). Grill untill it until it bubbles lots but doesn`t

char, then fold the two pieces together and toast both outsides. Finally a

little bit of " pure " (my fav) marg on top and serve to your delighted

relish!!!!

  • 6 years later...

I sent this message to another of my groups this morning - they were actually

discussing

cheese, so it was timely. However, I think we all need to be reminded of this

once in a

while - especially for when weÕre eating outside our own homes.

 

Not to rain on anyone's parade, but we're at the beginning of a new year and we

have new

members who may be new to vegetarianism. So here's aunty's word of caution:

 

Remember, not all cheeses are vegetarian - they are a milk product, but other

ingredients

which go into the making of the cheese have traditiionally been from dead-animal

sources.

 

Especially problematic for all vegetarians is rennet in cheese. Rennet (from a

calf's

stomach usually) has the enzyme rennin, considered necessary by many cheese

makers for

a good cheese. Some cheese makers now use a vegetable source, but many

traditional,

old-time cheese makers and connoisseurs insist that rennet makes a cheese of

better

flavour and consistency.

 

For a (no doubt partial) list of cheeses made without extracts from parts of

dead animals,

see the following:

 

http://www.ruf.rice.edu/~veggie/nonveg/cheese.html

 

They note: " Remember to check the ingredient list of the cheese if you're not

sure. Look

out for rennet or enzymes. Many packaged cheeses and other foods contain Vitamin

A

Palmitate, which is made from fish gelatin. Also, check for whey, since this is

a byproduct

of the cheese-making process " [and may therefore be non-vegetarian].

 

For more info on Rennet (for those who are new to vegetarianism and don't know)

see:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rennet

 

For lists of animal products in foods, see:

http://www.cyberparent.com/eat/hiddenanimalsinfood.htm

 

http://www.happycow.net/health-animal-ingredients.html

 

There are lots of other sites - some in our Links folder - for animal-free

foods and

warnings about hidden animal products. It's not difficult to find out what we

need in order

to keep to our vegetarian (or vegan) lifestyle. Finding the right product,

however, can be

quite another matter, eh? :(

 

Love and hugs, Pat

And besides the awful fact of eating not just an animal but a *baby*

animal, supporting the rennet industry directly supports the veal

industry, because they come from the same place.

 

(This was one of the things that put me off dairy in general, by the

way. The realization that a milk cow is a milk cow because she's given

birth and her calf has been turned to veal.)

Excellent links! I notice the first one says of isinglass " rarely used

now " and I'm not sure that's true. There are a couple of links that

have alcohol that is certified vegetarian (i.e. isinglass is not used)

and I'd think isinglass must still be fairly common to have to make a

list like that.

 

Here are the links, by the way:

 

Vegan Wine Guide

http://vegans.frommars.org/wine/

 

Vegetarian Beers

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/geraint.bevan/Vegetarian_beers.html

 

(I'm still in mourning after learning that Guiness is not vegetarian.)

This is such a good point. One other thing I just found out because

one of our major grocery stores started posting these signs on the

produce. " Produce (then a list like apples, cubumbers, green, red

peppers etc) coated with rennet or petroleum products to preserve

freshness... Yikes! I try to stay organic as the budget allows!

Whoa! I knew about wax and petroleum but didn't know about rennet! Thanks!

 

My husband always complains about the produce section of the store

where I shop because the produce doesn't look " sexy " like it does at

the big chain grocery and you always have to check to make sure you're

not getting a spoiled item, but I love it because it's not waxed up,

much of it is organic, and much of it is locally grown. As if that

weren't great enough, it's consistently cheaper than the local

Farmer's Market!

RENNET?! Oh good grief *hides head under wing and

goes to sleep in defence*

Sexy huh lol

 

That was cute. I try to buy organic root veggies and veggie that do not get

peeled. I can't afford to buy all organic. I always buy organic carrots, because

i juice them with out peeling. I try to grow basic herbs my self and tomatoes. I

freeze what I can for the winter ( not much).

 

It is so scary to think of all the bad stuff they do to good food. They should

put warning labels. I think that all these hormones, chemicals is one of

reasons cancer and obesity along with fast puberty is so large. Just a thought

When I go back to Kroger. I will double check the sign. to make sure it said

Rennet & not something else. it may have been Resin. in any case, I will get

it down & bring it back to the group. all those things sound icky in any

case. so, I am going to try to stay roadside & organic!

Extremely icky, I agree, regardless of whether or

not it is strictly veg :( Thanks for caring

enough to check on this (again) for us. Always

good to keep an eye on what the big boys are

doing to our food!
