I made some delicious mozzarella chesse with these bad boys. They worked perfectly and arrived lickety split. However, I suggest you not buy these online unless you have absolutely exhausted your search locally. about a month after I ordered these I found the same product for $1.99 in my grocery store. It was in the section with the pudding mix. Also might be in the baking aisle. After shipping and everything, this box cost me almost 4 times more ordering it online. Just a word to the wise, grocery stores will order products upon request, so you might go that route if you don't need it immediately. Just a thought

Just an FYI to any vegetarians out there. I contacted Junket and they sent me the following email reply:

"We use vegetable rennet.

Thank you for taking the time to contact us regarding this matter.

Quick response, great product...

We recently purchased these rennet tablets and they met our expectations. This was our first attempt at cheese-making and these were easy to use. I would buy this brand of rennet tablets again.

I got this Rennet to make cheese with and it worked perfectly. The included instructions are great and the cheese turned our wonderful. Now I only have to wait for 6 months before I can eat it.

Sure -- Rennet is used for all kinds of practical things-- cheesemaking being one of them, ice cream being another. Now I don't know who introduced me to Junket Rennet in that simple humble blue and white box (I see the design has not changed in eons -- good for you Junket!!) when I was a little kid in the 50's -- maybe Mom Sylvia. I think she actually made little Rennet puddings for me for a while, and I loved them. Oh yum!! I still do!!

But eventually the task of making Rennett Pudding using Junket Rennet fell to me -- and only me -- because it turned out that I was the only one eating these wonderful Junket Rennet creations. So (heh heh) I got to eat ALL of it, anytime I made a batch.

I suppose one day I will make the ice cream, and the cottage cheese, but right now, I have my sights set on one and only one thing-- the delightful anticipation of carefully cooking the milk, opening the foil packet, adding the rennett tablet and sugar, popping it in the fridge, and waiting.... I wait a few minutes, open the fridge door, close the fridge door -- come back 5 minutes later and keep repeating the process until...... Ah!! Look!! The white pudding is firm at the edges of the dish, but is jiggling gently in the middle, which means it's time to set this dish in front of my happy face, and sit at the table with a teaspoon, to slowly savor the goodness of a most unusual and refreshing dessert that brings back so many wonderful memories.

I have been using this product for 30 years. I have never had a problem with the product. This same product has been around for many years.

I use my rennet tablets to make cheese, and they have preformed perfectly every time. It takes about 20 minutes longer for the curds to separate from the whey when using these tablets vs animal rennet. I store the rennet tablets in my freezer (longer shelf life).

The price is too high here, but Junket rennet tablets are great!

So happy to be able to purchase this product to make ricotta cheese at home. Can't find it in the stores any longer. Fast delivery.

I purchased this item for cheesemaking. It works well, and makes the cheesemaking projects rewarding and successful. It arrived quickly and has instructions for cheesemaking, icecream making and puddings.

Tried 3 times and the milk never set. Tested three different milk types, all full fat and not ultra-pasteurized.

Maybe the date expired .. but I only saw a weird 4 digit code on top that was 2386.
