the rennet debate

Mum wants to make me some thing with mozzarella. Fair enough, can't do anything about it. Except the packet of mozzerella says 'made with calf rennet'. THEY SHRED FROZEN STOMACHS TO MAKE THAT. The animal very, very definitely died to make that lump of cheese.

But the parents won't listen. They think it's taking vegetarianism that step to far into veganism, and that saying I won't eat gelatine (which I've never done) and rennet is announcing I'm a frutarian and that I'm going to miss out on loads of nutrients from the inner mucosa of the fourth stomach of the calf.

Ew.

    I've found some that's rennet free. But it's full fat. Major dilemma.
