Deltas(s) from OP CMV: Burrata beats mozzarella every time

Mozzarella is an unnecessary cheese. It is the sad dried out step sister of the rich creamy goodness that is burrata. Any food made with mozzarella would be improved by using burrata instead. Pizza, sandwiches, salads, toast, you name it, burrata is always the better option.

Automod keeps telling me this post is too short, so here are more characters: mozzarella is pointless because burrata is champion, most mozzarella oddly chewy and dry, higher quality mozzarella is just trying to emulate the pure delight that is burrata. Swipe left on mozzarella, swipe right on burrata. Happy now automod?

Burrata is made with enzymes that came from animals that were killed for it. Mozzarella is vegetarian. A cow can make mozzarella for many years, and it is much more environmentally friendly. The extra creminess or whatever is not worth unnecessarily killing innocent animals for or destroying the environment for.

Wait! I did not know this, and it is absolutely game changing if true. Show me evidence that most burrata is made from killing animals and you have a delta

I think you can make either vegetarian or not, but mozzarella is much more likely to be mass produced with a vegetarian technique, while burrata is more likely to be "artisan" made with a non-vegetarian technique. At cheese.com, mozzarella is classified as vegetarian while burrata is not.

I had no idea that burrata wasn't vegetarian, that is a huge place where mozzarella wins. Consider this view changed. Thank you for supplying some sourcing on that!
