I was going for more of a jel, but then again, in earlier times [before 
the Jell-O company] any firmed sweet was called a "cheese."  Lemon 
Cheese, etc.  I'm not sure how well a acidulated curd process would work 
on the much-vaunted Pennsic Chocolate Milk;  if anyone performs the 
supreme sacrifice next month, please do let us know the results.

Staying home yet again, sigh,
