Why don't you eat cheese?!


Question:

Why don't you eat cheese?


Answers:
I don't consume any animal products.

Cheese is a form of dairy, which is made by impregnating mammals (usually cows.) Since mammals produce milk to feed their offspring, the question arises as to what happens to the offspring.
Female calves go on to produce milk themselves. Male calves go on to become veal.
Once cows stop producing milk, they're slaughtered.


Also, casein is a protein found in milk, I think that Tracy F has this confused with rennet, which is an enzyme used in many cheeses and is a slaughterhouse byproduct, from the stomach and intestines of cows and sheep.

i eat cheese but vegans don't cuz dey don't eat any thing that comes from an animal

lactose intolerant

I limit my intake because of the high fat and calorie content. It's a necessary pain in the tailbone for us diabetics.

I eat cheese.

Milking cows supports the idea of factory farming and slaughter, which I'm against.

Also it's not healthy for humans to drink milk (or use other dairy) from another species. No other mammal does that. Milk is for babies. Cows milk is for baby cows. Cheese is a milk product. Simple as that.

I used to eat cheese and other dairy. I have since cut it out of my diet for two reasons: the high fat content and the use of caesin (a byproduct of the slaughterhouse, comes from the stomach lining of cows) to make the cheese. Even with plain milk, I just don't want to contribute to the suffering of cows and the whole idea of factory farming.

Because I'm a vegan and I don't eat anything that comes from an animal. Theres also no need to eat any dairy products. You can live perfectly fine without them!

Are you kiddin I luv cheese but vegaterians don't because they don't eat anything that comes from animals because they feel bad for them.

I don't eat cheese because it comes from an animal. And I don't want to support the dairy industry.

as to why vegans don't eat cheese.
(Vegans don't consume dairy, lacto vegetarians(lacto> meaning milk) do consume dairy)

hight cholesterol

Vegans don't eat cheese because it comes from a poor cow that is probably being treated very badly by stupid mean people like us.

I do....but it's made without animal rennet.

I don't like the taste of "real" cheese and I'm vegan.

contrary to popular belief and what the FDA says; dairy products are bad for adults. there is also a lot of pus and blood in milk. it is unsanitary to say the least. see www.milksucks.com
