"Dairy Queen's slogan may be "Grill & Chill," but when it comes to the chain's cheese curds, we highly recommend that fans stick to the "Chill" part of the equation. DQ's cheese curds made Tasting Table's lineup of the eight items that foodies should avoid ordering at Dairy Queen. Squeaky cheese curds are a Midwest enterprise, and at DQ, they come breaded and fried, state-fair-style ... that is, at least, in theory."
"Beyond inconsistent quality, these curds consistently come with a high price tag for what you get. The portions are small, and if you happen to visit on an "off" day, sometimes they're still frozen in the middle. Quoth our taste-tester, "If you like a gamble and potentially losing out on your money for a non-edible, expensive mess, then try the curds." By our count, foodies are better off hitting fellow Midwestern-based fast-food chain Culver's for some proper cheese curd action."
Dairy Queen's cheese curds are a breaded, fried, Midwestern-style item that often delivers inconsistent quality across locations. Portions are small and prices remain high relative to the serving size. Some orders arrive undercooked or with frozen centers, creating a variable, risky experience. A taste-tester called them a gamble that can result in a non-edible, expensive mess. Better alternatives include Midwestern fast-food chain Culver's for fresh curds and Trader Joe's frozen breaded cheddar curds. Dairy Queen continues to perform strongly on ice cream, but the fried cheese curds often fall short.
