Guest guest Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 hey jim, have you ever tried the soy cheeses made with casein? casein is just a skim milk protein and to my knowledge these cheeses never ever use rennet, but they still melt and taste just like real cheese. i'm not sure about the prices, but i think they're still probably cheaper than organic cheese. Soy kaas (sp?) made a great mozzarella. but to answer your question this site shows brands made w/o rennet. http://www.vnv.org.au/Products.htm#Dairy-Based%20Rennet-Free%20Cheese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 18, 2003 Report Share Posted July 18, 2003 a lot of brands don't even mention on the label non-rennet. enzymes can definitely be from animal as well as vegetable source. here is a great list for rennetless cheeses: http://www.vrg.org/nutshell/cheesebybrand.htm When I was still eating cheese, my fav was Cabot brand, because it was very inexpensive, found easily [walmart!], and on this list!! ~Pixx On 17 Jul 2003 at 22:18, Jim wrote: I have to ask this question. I don't eat cheese unless is says made with non-animal renet. This way I am not killing anything to get cheese. For anyone who does not know, renet is made from an animals stomache lining. I do not like soy cheese ..... period. I read somewhere that if cheese was labled made with enzymes and not with renet that it was not made with animal renet. Then I read in the vegetarian times? that, that was not really true of cheeses. So now I buy organic or koshur, both which are expensive and hardy ever go on sale. Can anyone set me " straight " on this one? Pleeeeeeze == http://pixxart.com the Art of Living in Health, Peace, & Light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 18, 2003 Report Share Posted July 18, 2003 Yes I have. They okay, but again pricey. When I first got into vegetarianism I was spending about $150 a week on groceries, just for me. Yes I like to eat and eat well. I try to keep expences down where I can. Also I just like cheese. It's one of my week points. jim , " dave " <dave4sale> wrote: > hey jim, have you ever tried the soy cheeses made with casein? > casein is just a skim milk protein and to my knowledge these cheeses > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
