That's not what cheese curds are and if that's how they're serving you cheese curds where you are I'm sorry.
Cheese curds are literally tiny little curds of cheese and should be kinda springy.
It's a delicacy in the northern Midwest. Batter, cheese (can be curds proper or cheese cubes), a good deep fry.
It's like a heart attack and keeps you warm with every bite
Gotta love the state fair cheese curds that can make you actively feel your arteries clogging. Probably makes your heart run like an F250 stuck in ecoboost mode on a steep incline but they're delicious.
The best cheese curds are the squeakiest. I think this debate is a Canadian v Midwest American one but either way if someone wants to deep fry my cheese curds before putting them on my poutine I'm not gonna argue that heart attack.
"Natural byproduct of the cheesemaking process" is the key term here. They don't chop up blocks of cheese to get curds, curds are curdled chunks that form when the cheese is still liquid.
To be clear, I'm taking issue with the cut up bits of cheese part, not the battered and deep fried part
Ah, yeah. Ideally you get the natural curds. In a pinch you can just chop up blocks though. The best ones I've actually ever had were fried cubes in a small town dive bar.
There are far bigger food crimes out there than frying cubes of cheese and calling them cheese curds.
