Are there any types of cheeses that are not permissible for us to eat in our diet? If so, which ones are they?

Thank you.

That depends on your interpretation of Sikh diet.

Most cheeses have an enzyme called 'rennet' in them which comes from the stomach lining of calves.

If you're a vegetarian then you shouldn't consume any cheese with rennet in it. You can see on the pack if it says rennet or just enzyme then don't eat it. Only eat it if it says 'non-animal rennet' or enzyme.

If you're not a vegetarian then your next concern if where the animal rennet came from. You are 100% not supposed to eat halal meat so you could try finding out if the rennet comes from a halal slaughtered cow. Don't know how you find that out though.

Best thing to do is just stick to cheeses which don't have rennet in them.

Please pardon my mistakes.
