Can people still be labeled vegetarian if they eat cheese and gelatin?

Question: Can people still be labeled vegetarian if they eat cheese and gelatin?
Personally I don’t understand vegetarians that eat cheese (contain rennet) and things with gelatin in it, are they still vegetarians? I mean, they are consuming dead animal parts…
Just wondering, thanks!

Q&A: Does anyone have a “healthy” cheese ball recipe?

Question: Does anyone have a “healthy” cheese ball recipe?
I’m sure a cheese ball is never going to be healthy, but I need to make one. I would prefer it to be as good for you as a cheese ball gets. Anyone have any good recipes? Thanks!

Answer:

Answer by Tom ツ
The New Cheese Ball

1/4 cup wasabi-coated green peas
1/4 cup granola
1/4 cup ground gingersnaps (about 5 cookies)
1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan
1/2 teaspoon whole fennel seeds
2 11-ounce logs goat cheese

Grind the peas in a food processor or crush them in a resealable plastic bag. Spread the crumbs on a plate. Repeat these steps for the granola, then the gingersnaps. Combine the Parmesan and fennel on another plate.

Shape the cheese into balls, working with about 1 rounded tablespoon at a time. Roll the balls in the coatings.

In Advance: Roll the cheese into balls and refrigerate them, uncoated, for up to 24 hours. Roll the balls in the coatings no more than 1 hour before the party.

So, yes, cottage cheese could be considered fattening. Farmer’s cheese is a lower fat alternative that is pretty similar to cottage cheese.

What is a vegetarian alternative to parmesan cheese?

Question: What is a vegetarian alternative to parmesan cheese?
Seems like such a simple question, but I’m finding it hard to find out a vegetarian alternative. What is the best alternative for vegetarians to substitute into recipes using parmesan?
Vegetarians do eat cheese, but Parmesan cheese contains rennet (extract from cow stomachs), therefore it is not vegetarian.

Answer:

Answer by Elisa
In terms of flavor, there are no alternatives to parmesan cheese.

BUT…..

I didn’t know parmesan cheese was against vegetarianism. I know it’s not “vegan“, but vegetarianism? I thought vegetarians still eat cheese..

Why are people considered to be vegetarians if some still eats eggs or cheese?

Question: Why are people considered to be vegetarians if some still eats eggs or cheese?
There are different sub-categories for vegetarians (vegans, lacto-vegetarians, etc). Don’t understand why eating eggs should still be under a separate class of a different type of vegetarian.

Answer:

Answer by Tiaskela
Eggs and cheese (milk) come from the animals without killing them.

Are there any good vegan options for chicken, hamburger and cheese?

Question: Are there any good vegan options for chicken, hamburger and cheese?
I would really love to go vegetarian or vegan but I don’t know how. I still love cheese, hamburger and chicken. Are there any good substitution products?

Answer:

Answer by Dwight K. Schrute
Morningstar Farms makes chicken nuggets, burgers, etc. (check labels to make sure they’re okay for vegans, some are not). There’s tempeh, tofu, lentils/beans, and seitan to make good meat substitutes, and soy cheese.
