Guest guest Posted August 13, 2005 Report Share Posted August 13, 2005 It can be tough to find " vegetarian " cheese..and when you're feeding a family, expensive, too. Outside of mozerella (I cannot spell that today) & eating out italian & mexican - we work hard to find animal friendly cheese. I buy good cheese and don't use it randomly in food - the kids like fanicier cheeses with crackers & can name some unusual ones, which is funny to me! I love trader joe's cuz they have relatively affordable vegetarian cheeses, just the plian cheddars and jack cheese, that make it easier to make enchiladas, nachos & mac & cheese dinners. They have some that are made from " microbial rennet " which they have assured me is not animal based...hope I'm not being duped!! I do just shrug and not read ingredients on some mozerella's - my hubby loves the stuff, especially the good ones - and parmesans, my kiddo's adore parmesan. We do what we can with in reason!! Trader Joes also has lots of gelatin free yogurts!!!! HOORAY!! A small aside...Melissa, I too am/was a teacher - home with kids now & don't think I want to go back to it though..what grade? m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 13, 2005 Report Share Posted August 13, 2005 Geez, I keep hearing about Trader Joe's and how awesome they are. Why can't we have them in Toronto? :-( Cathrine melissa_hopp wrote: > It can be tough to find " vegetarian " cheese..and when you're feeding > a family, expensive, too.
