Cheese Curds are the Trendiest of Cheeses, and Yummy

3/31/2015

I eat a lot of cheese at my house. It's an easy snack to pull from and the carb count is always low. Cheese is great to help fill in your meals and make your dinners feel a bit more full.

There is a great new cheese snack making the rounds and that is Cheddar Cheese Curds. Its a more unprocessed version of cheese. Has great flavor and its great for munching on.

Some companies even flavor their cheese for a little extra kick.

if you want to try some, look for it near the deli counter.

Tim - a penny for your thoughts. This says 0 carbs, but it's for a 1 inch cube! 16 of which are in the bag!!
Assuming it's really "zero" carbs, then that's fine.....but any knowledge on what rules there are for marking a product as "0" vs. " >1 "?
If each has 0.4 carbs, then that's a whopping 6 in the bag...which is too much for an induction man like myself..

Just answered my own question. Sigh. I'll avoid these for now.

The FDA says:

< .5 g - express as 0
< 1 g - express as "Contains less than 1 g" or "less than 1 g"
≥1 g - express to nearest 1 g increment

I love these cheese curds. I spent part of my childhood in Quebec, where these are quite common, and part of the Poutine recipe (melted cheese curds / fries / gravy). I used to always eat the curds right out of the bag.
