why don't americans eat quark?

137 kcal and 21g of protein in a easy snack size container and cheap as fuck (70c a piece here)
>>
Lots of grocery stores just don't sell it here.

The only place that reliably has it near me is Whole Foods, and I don't shop there that often. When I do, though, I stock the fuck up.

Cottage cheese or greek yogurt are more popular versions of what's essentially the same thing
>>

Actually cottage cheese is the same thing as quark
>>
>>37105772
isn't greek yogurt pretty expensive?
>>37105788
it's not althought similar
>>
>>37105801
I buy the tubs and the Chobani packs from Costco (wholesale store). The tubs end up being really good for cost to protein but the Chobani end up being a dollar a cup or something so a bit worse than your quark cups
>>

ok that's not bad though it's worth noting food in general is more expensive here like chicken breast is 14€/kg

also quark has literally no fat which is nice. i guess I could try some greek yogurt when my curent stockpile runs out
>>
>>37105713
because there is either no quark in america or it is EXTREMELY rare.

closest thing is non-fat greek yogurt or non-fat cottage cheese.
>>

The Liberte tubs are also a good deal though I've only seen them in 0% fat. I don't have an issue fitting fat macro though so I buy it anyway.

There's so many types of dairy that you never know. I would have called OP's pic "curd" since it really isn't close to cheese at all, I've eaten it.

Then there's stuff like tvorog that doesn't really have a translation but the closest thing in english is probably cottage cheese.
