How Cheese Curds Are Made
As cheese is being made, curds form after the milk is acidified (using starter culture) and coagulated (using rennet). The coagulated milk is cut and heated, separating the liquid (whey) from the solids (curds). The process of cheddaring then begins, and the curds are stacked, cut up, pressed together and stacked again repeatedly. This is done to release more moisture and give the curds a specific texture. The curds are then run through a mill and are milled into two- to three-inch pieces and then salted.
How Cheese Curds Taste
Cheese curds have a mild and cheddar-like flavor. (More often than not, cheese curds are made during the process of making cheddar cheese. Like cheddar, the color can be white, yellow or orange.) The slightly rubbery texture causes the cheese curd to squeak when you bit into it. For this reason, cheese curds are also called "squeaky cheese."

I do eat cottage cheese, and it comes in small or large curd. I guess it’s the same basic idea?

Yuk. I don't know why, but anything with the word "curd" in it sounds nasty.
Also don't know why, but this is my latest kick, morning, noon or night!
