Ye Xinyan was truly vexed by the issue of milk curd remains. Following her method today, she could imagine what the cheese she produced looked like. That thing was probably what she used to eat as a snack, pure flavored milk strips, and curds. Although they were rich in milk flavor and nutrient-dense, good for grinding teeth, they seemed to have little use in the food industry.
Not being usable for food also implied a bleak future for the product. Which wealthy families would consider consuming these hard curds as a daily snack? If the rich didn't buy it, it meant that the product had little to no profit, maybe even at a loss. Poor families struggled to fill their stomachs; who would spend money on snacks? Even if the snacks were cheap.
