    I have had fantastic curds in Kingston, Ontario…

    There are a few good dairies north of that area. Forfar Dairy, north of Gananoque, has a small store out front, and I always pick up a bag or two when up that way. Sadly, they don’t keep well. A few seconds, 3 or 4, in the microwave will bring back the squeak, but it isn’t a substitute for fresh!

    From what I read, time is the enemy, and curds naturally morph into cheese. Hey, if you can put them on the plane, I’ll be waiting at the runway!
    Probably best if I can find a dairy that sells them fresh here in the Atlanta area. If anyone knows such a place, I’d love to know.

    I think squeaky = fresh … I saw them too but didn’t expect freshness to be a factor.

    We’ve loved cheese curds ever since first tasting them in Wisconsin — and could even find good ones living in Maine. We scooped these up from TJ’s in CT and were disappointed. They weren’t at all "squeaky," even when the microwave directions were followed (which I still don’t entirely understand). We did, however, use them for homemade poutine, and they melted fine for that. But I wouldn’t buy them again. Maybe AnnPeeples will school us here! [;)]
