The Texas A&M Creamery is
making a new cheese product which
some in the dairy industry have said
could become more popular than
yogurt. It’s called quarg.
Frank Chase, production superin
tendent of the Creamery, said the
Creamery now makes about 100
pounds per week of the spreadable,
low’-calorie cheese.
Most people who have tasted
quarg said it tastes like sour cream. It
also has been compared to other da
iry products such as cream cheese
and cottage cheese. About half of
those who sampled quarg on a
cracker said they liked it.
Compared with the other dairy
products mentioned, the quarg
made at the Creamery has fewer cal
ories. Locally made quarg has 40 cal
ories per two-ounce serving. The
same size serving of cottage cheese
has 60 calories, sour cream 115 cal
ories and cream cheese 227 calories.
not something one eats
ture. Richter said he knows of only
one other commercial producer of
quarg, Frank Appel in Ferndale,
Wash.
Appel said he gets several calls ev
ery week about the cheese. He pro

pounds of cheese each week,” he
said.

Richter said it’s the potential
quarg has in the specialty food mar
ket that makes most people think it
might become the next yogurt.
“Quarg is a low-calorie, low-salt
product and people are health con-

“Quarg is a low-calorie, low-salt product and people
are health conscious now. This is a good product to
target at those people. ”

Quarg is ]
by itself, Chase said. Most people
prefer to put it on toast or baked po
tatoes, mix it with pureed fruit, use it
instead of ricotta cheese in lasagna
or even make cheesecake with it.
Dr. Ronald Richter, an animal sci
ence professor who teaches dairy
manufacturing classes, said he

Appel’s quarg has about 90 cal
ories in a two-ounce serving. He said
the higher calorie count in his quarg
is due to the amount of milk fat used
in production. The Appel Farm
quarg has 11.5 percent milk fat com
pared to the 0.5 percent milk fat in
the cheese made at A&M.
While A&M’s quarg has found a
small niche in a few Houston and
Austin stores, the Appel Farm quarg
has found a more prestigious market
in New York City. Appel Farm quarg
currently is being sold in a “fancy
store” on Madison Avenue, Appel
said.
“I’ve been a cow milker all my life,
and this stuff (quarg) has already put
me in a different world — I kind of
scious now," Richter said. "This is a
good product to target at those peo
ple.”
The low fat content of the A&M
product has prompted an inquiry
from the Pritikin Diet Center, Chase
said. The Creamery may not be able
to handle the amount of quarg the
center would want if something
should develop, he said.

Confused about your health care options
Health care is big business these days. So it's not surprising that a bewildering array of
alternatives to the traditional doctor-patient relationship have surfaced. Alternatives that
promise to save you money in return for seeking your health care from an institution
rather than directly from your personal physician.
If you are considering joining a clinic-based HMO, think carefully about what you'll be
losing in the bargain: the freedom to choose your own physician from among all who
practice in this community; the freedom to choose the hospital that best suits your
needs; the certainty that your health care coverage can be continued regardless of
where you move; the relationship you've already developed with your present doctor.
You'll have to give up your PCS Card and dental insurance as well.
Be sure you understand all the facts before you decide to abandon your proven medi
cal insurance.
Don’t Lose Your Right to Choose!
