Cheeses that are made with animal-derived rennet (an enzyme from the stomach of a mammal, usually a calf) are not suitable for vegetarians. Those cheeses include but are not limited to certain brands of Parmesan, Grana Padano and Gorgonzola.

Dolcelatte is similar to Gorgonzola, but isn't necessarily made with animal-derived rennet and thus may be suitable for lacto-vegetarians. To make sure, check the package for the "V" symbol or for a statement on its suitability for vegetarians.

Cheese and other dairy products may not be suitable for vegetarians who happen to be lactose-sensitive or lactose-intolerant, or who choose not to consume dairy for other reasons.
