Default large curd vs low fat

I had not bought large curd in a few years. 4% is high and avoided it. But
K-- had a sale this week. 10 for $10. That's a damn good price... so on a
whim I got the large curd. But when I opened it up, the curds are not
large; are about the same as the 2%. Disappointing. Very disappointing
Kroger.

Is there a reason only 4% can be large curd?

It's been that way for years and years. I'm fine with the smaller
curds, never did like the big ones.... and I suspect most people are
in my camp or else you'd be finding the large ones when you open the
carton that says large.

I LOVE large-curd cottage cheese. I went through years of not
being able to find it, although Horizon's small-curd has
good-sized curds.

Buy pot cheese... and no, it has nothing to do with pot.

I've never gotten that and will take a peek (and a taste).

Nooooo, the fun is finding the occasional large curd in the regular
curds! Land-O-Lakes makes a good 2%.
