I know this post is old, but I recently emailed Cheesecake Factory about their so-called "vegetarian" menu items and their cheese. Here's their response:

Thank you for your e-mail regarding our menu suggestions for a vegetarian diet.

All of our cheeses contain animal rennet. We offer many different varieties of bread; some are supplied by national suppliers while others are provided locally but none are considered vegan by the manufactures. The portabella burger and the dressings associated with it do not contain Worcestershire sauce.

We hope that this has answered your inquiries. Have a wonderful day!

Sincerely,

Valarie Newell

I never received a reply back about gelatin in their cheesecake. If you buy the frozen cheesecake at the grocery store, it contains gelatin. Stupid companies and their lack of replies!

Most, if not all, of the cheesecakes anywhere have gelatin in them. They are like marshmallows - they cannot be made without gelatin.

Whole Foods does sell a cheesecake without gelatin.

I want it soooooooo bad, but it's not weight watchers friendly 16g of saturated fat per serving.

I've made a cheesecake before, and though it was quite a messy affair due to my poor cooking skills, I can assure you not a bit of gelatin went into that cheesecake.
