Quark (dairy product) then known as "syrniki". In Latvia, quark is eaten savory mixed with sour cream and scallions on rye bread or with potatoes. In desserts, quark is commonly baked into "biezpiena plātsmaize", a crusted sheet cake baked with or without raisins. A sweetened treat "biezpiena sieriņš" (small curd cheese) is made of small sweetened blocks of quark dipped in chocolate. Estonian Quark is evaluated on olfaction, vision, taste, after taste, and texture and is distributed nationally as well as to nearby regions. Although common in continental Europe, manufacturing of quark is rare in the Americas. A few dairies manufacture it, such
Strange quark values of + and − respectively. Along with the charm quark, it is part of the second generation of matter, and has an electric charge of − "e" and a bare mass of . Like all quarks, the strange quark is an elementary fermion with spin , and experiences all four fundamental interactions: gravitation, electromagnetism, weak interactions, and strong interactions. The antiparticle of the strange quark is the strange antiquark (sometimes called "antistrange quark" or simply "antistrange"), which differs from it only in that some of its properties have equal magnitude but opposite sign. The first strange particle (a particle
