yes, they are different from regular lentils as they are smaller, 
earthier, and hold their shape perfectly. All meat eaters who eat at 
my house comment approvingly on them. Sometimes green or brown lentils 
tend to get mushy or separated from their skin after cooking. 

The true recommendation is that my two toddlers turn their noses up at 
green and brown lentils but will eat puy lentils with a spoon (I 
usually cook them in a little veggie stock for the kids).

I have sent a reply about where I think you can get them in the 
states. I did a quick search and they may be called beluga lentils. 
but if you know a whole foods or organic store with a dried bulk 
section, they may be there. They are tiny and blackish coloured.

Hope this helps!

I have no idea about the rennet, unfortunately. I am not the strictest 
vegetarian in the world--meaning, I love my cheese and fish so I do 
not always check about vegetarian cheese. Sorry!
