    I’m not sure I want to know what Québec considers a cheese curd now.

    Proper cheese curds are a Wisconsin delicacy and his description is exactly correct

      I’ve seen Wisconsinites go down on cheese curds. There’s nothing delicate about it.

        I mean sure, but in the U.S. if something is delicious, the obvious answer is to batter and deep fry it so it’s more delicious.

        It’s just like common sense

      No it’s not. Cheese curds are springy, almost spongey.

      They’re not just little bits of chopped up cheese. If that’s what they’re selling you in Wisconsin, you’re missing out on actual cheese curds. If you’d ever have any you’d notice the difference immediately, it’s not subtle.

        It’s deepfried, so I just assumed it was melted cheese in the batter. It could be battered cheese curds deepfried which would make sense too
