Cheese curls were a kind of food that were edible by Humans and contained cheese. In a period spanning from 0 ABY to 3 ABY, the Human Sith Lord Darth Vader consumed exclusively cheese curls for eighteen hours leading up to the night of his birthday. That night, Vader suffered a decline in his mental well-being because his stormtroopers had failed to acknowledge the event. The Sith Lord noted in his diary that his consumption of solely cheese curls, along with insufficient sleep and feelings of depression, contributed in part to his declining mental condition.
"Lunch Break," a comic created by Jonathan Adams, featured cheese curls. It was both written and illustrated by Adams, and it appeared in Star Wars Tales 16 on June 25, 2003.
