I am a vegetarianand yes, I just figured out, it is the lining of a calf's stomach. BUt it really depends on which kind of enzymes. Microbial enzymes are vegetarian because they are created in a lab and are 'man made'

What is rennet in brie cheese?
Rennet is actually dead baby cow enzymes scraped from its 4th stomach. - It is used in Cheese manufacturing as a 'hardener' (to make cheese more firm). pretty much all cheeses can contain "rennet". It is entirely up to the manufacturer of the cheese if they will use an animal rennet or a non animal rennet. Some companies choose to use use a non-animal rennet (ie: microbial or mushroom culture or synthetic), and some companies use the dead baby cow enzymes. Animal rennet is cheaper, (hence many non-ethical companies using it). so its impossible to give a list of cheeses that don't contain rennet, because its all 100% dependant on the company. and if they don't use rennet, then many companies use Gelatin instead, (which is dead cow or fish bones!!) you will find that MOST cheeses in America and Australia and Denmark all use the cheaper Animal Rennet option. Cheeses in the UK however are almost all non-animal rennet. (but you should always check the label before purchase). if the label says 'cheese culture, starter culture, enzymes etc... then it is not specific and you have no idea what kind of rennet has been used, (you can either call the company and ask them, or buy a different brand that bothers to label their products better).

No, not all cheese contains rennin, an enzyme in rennet, the mucus lining of the stomach of a young cow. Rennet is a common cheese ingredient because of it's natural property of processing milk.

Is mozerrela cheese vegeterian?
In fact, most buffalo mozzarella that I've seen is NOT vegetarian. Rennet, derived from the stomachs of young buffaloes, is required for the curdling process. (The young buffaloes must be killed for their rennet to be extracted.) You should check the ingredients and do some research on individual brands before buying, because not all cheeses are the same. Many mozzarella cheeses are made using vegetable, microbial, or other vegetarian-safe rennet or rennet substitute.
Is rennet vegetarian?
Rennet, processed from the stomachs of unweaned calves, is often used in the production of hard cheese as a curdling and coagulating agent. Kosher hard cheese is produced with microbial rennet, which is derived from kosher sources. Because hard cheese is typically made with animal rennet, the Rabbinic sages decreed that even when animal rennet is not used, a full-time supervisor must be present to guarantee the kosher integrity of the product.
