I would strongly suggest that you stop trying to use
grep and cut from within the subprocess.
Instead just process the lines with Python.
Its clearer and more efficient.
In this case it seems to be almost trivial:
output = subprocess.... # run blkid shell command and read output
for line in output:
if line.endswith("vfat"):
# do whatever you want to do with line.
