Can vegetarians eat cheese?
Yes, vegetarians can eat cheese because it is derived from milk and does not contain any animal flesh or products. However, it’s important to note that some vegans, who follow a stricter diet and avoid all animal-derived products, may choose not to consume cheese as well. Additionally, there are different types of vegetarianism with varying degrees of restrictions on dairy consumption, such as lacto-ovo vegetarianism (which includes dairy but not eggs) and ovo-vegetarianism (which includes eggs but not dairy). So, while most vegetarians do eat cheese, it’s always best to check with an individual about their specific dietary preferences or requirements.
