And yet there is reason to think that curd cheese *was* a part of
actual paleo diet.  Reason: modern hunter-gatherers eat the
stomach contents of the animals they kill.  The stomachs of
suckling animals contain milk fermented by rennet, which is curd
cheese.  Suckling animals should have been among the easiest to
catch and kill.
