This kind of cheese can and is also consumed raw. (I'm from northeast Brazil, you can consume this cheese raw and many of us do so).

Queijo coalho or queijo-de-coalho (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈkejʒu (dʒi) ˈkwaʎu]; literally "curd cheese") is a firm but very lightweight cheese produced in Northeastern Brazil, with an almost "squeaky" texture when bitten into (similar to cheese curds).[1][2]

It is a popular and cheap snack for beach-goers in Brazil or in homemade churrasco, where the cheese is cooked over a charcoal grill, often with a sprinkling of oregano or garlic-flavored sauce. It is eaten off a stick, much like a kebab. It gets a golden surface when grilled, and does not melt much.
