Beecher's Fresh Curds - Market Herb

http://www.beechershandmadecheese.com/shop_beecherscheeses_curds_market.html

From Beecher's website:
"Fresh Curds are bite-size nuggets of fresh cheese, also known as "squeaky cheese"."

So, have you tried cheese curds before? They're not very common on the west coast. They are, indeed, small, bite-size nuggets of the freshest, curdiest cheese. They have a firm texture and a very mild flavor. And they really are "squeaky". As you chew on them, they make little squeaking noises in your mouth. It's weird at first, but then you kind of get addicted to it. Or maybe that's just me.

But cheese curds in general are just "pretty good" or "fine". Beecher's cheese curds, especially the ones tossed in olive oil and fresh herbs, are....... A MAZ ING.

In fact, if you happen to buy a tub of these (plan on ordering online if you're not in the Pac NW), I highly recommend having 1-2 other people around to help you eat them. Because otherwise, you will eat the entire tub by yourself in about fifteen minutes. That might not be so good for you. The mix of herbs that they use is bizarrely extra-delicious. The curds themselves are perfect - fresh, mild, chewy, squeaky... I'm getting a little excited thinking about them. Uh.. sorry.

Anyway, I could and should eat these every day. Maybe I'll move to Seattle.
