All major companies that sell cheese are corrupt and only care for their profits. However, purchasing from a local farm that lets you actually see the animals may be a better option if you cannot go vegan for whatever reason. The thing is, though, all cheese involves the babies being taken prematurely from their mothers and sold for veal. Someone I know has actually confirmed this, because they once lived on a dairy farm. Daiya is a delicious alternative, and so is Follow Your Heart.

There is humane cheese but that is called vegan cheese. Go check some of those out!

None of them, ever. All dairy products are the byproduct of kidnapping rape and murder so there’s nothing ethical about them.
There’s are a whole bunch or brands of vegan cheese though, daiya is my favourite but any health food store or organic market should have more than a few options

I agree, you should try and make the change ( i am trying too lol ) but tillamook seems to be good .. when i was alot younger i went to their farm/ factory and everything seemed cool they even had a huge pasture covered in grass for the cows.. but i have not been there in years so i have no clue now ..

Buying online is great because you get more variety and you can seek out the cheapest price. But don’t think just because you don’t have vegan cheese around yet means you should still eat dairy cheese! You don’t need to have a substitute around to make the right decision. I didn’t have vegan cheese until maybe 5-7 months into veganism. There are also vegan “cheeze” recipes online.

I’ll chime in, too. “Humane” cheese and dairy products won’t be found unless you’re looking at the vegan alternatives!
I made an image just recently touching on the topic of the dairy industry – check it out!

Whitney beat me. There is no thing as humane cheese. Sad but true.
Just give up cheese and dairy and after a month you’ll find 1)you don’t really crave it anymore and 2)you’ll be lactose intolerant

@samanthasjm123 The best thing you can do here is to go ahead and make the switch to a vegan diet. There’s nothing natural about dairy milk or dairy products (http://bit.ly/MQTgi8), and with vegan cheese so readily available and in most stores these days (I buy my Daiya at Kroger), there’s no reason to not go ahead and make the switch. Plus, here’s something else you may want to know about cheese: http://bit.ly/KY2JzY.

So I am vegetarian, and have been for years but came across PETA’s investigation of a farm supplying the producer of Cabot cheese found that calves’ horn buds were burned off and that cows were jabbed and electro-shocked in the face. I do still eat cheese for now and would like to go vegan eventually but what company(s) are ethically humane, and okay to buy cheese from now? PLEASE HELP!!!!!
So Cabot cheese is bad…
