How Much Do Curds Weigh? | |
After the water and whey are removed, the remaining cheese curds are piped into tall towers, where they are pressed. The pressed curds are then bagged in 42- to 44-pound chunks. If you've never tasted cheese curds, your tour guide may just let you sample a few. The taste is rather bland and mild, but the interesting thing is the texture. Curds squeak between your teeth when you bite into them.
