vegan cheese: i went to trader joe's the other day and i was looking at the vegan cheese, but there were milk by-products in the ingredients, so how come they label it as vegan cheese? where can i get real vegan cheese?|||Hmmm, I think you probably saw soy cheese and thought it was vegan or it had a vegetarian symbol and you got confused. I have never seen any vegan cheese at Trader Joes and know they understand veganism fairly well but for some reason don't carry any vegan cheese. They have a list of products that are vegan: http://www.traderjoes.com/pdf/lists/list鈥?/a> However there is loads of vegan cheese out there: Daiya - http://www.daiyafoods.com/ (my favorite) Sheese - http://www.buteisland.com/ Teese - http://www.chicagosoydairy.com/teese_veg鈥?/a> Dr. Cow - http://www.dr-cow.com/ Follow Your Heart: http://www.followyourheart.com/ Galaxy Vegan - http://www.galaxyfoods.com/galaxy-produc鈥?/a> Wayfare - http://www.wayfarefoods.com/|||Yeah I don't know why they do that. I don't eat vegan cheese, but when I did, it was really annoying to have to make sure that it was truly vegan. Daiya cheese is completely vegan. I believe Tofutti cheese and most Galaxy Foods cheeses are purely vegan as well.|||Trader Joe's is a joke.|||It's called vegan cheese because it doesn't use rennet (which is extracted from the stomach of a calf) to separate the milk into curds and whey.
