Help needed - aptitude test question -

I have recently taken an aptitude test, and one of the questions asked: what is another word for “curdled milk”. It then listed 4 words to choose from; unfortunately I can not remember the choices.

I am unable to find any single word, not a phrase, that means curdled milk… could someone please tell me the answer to this ridiculous question???

Thanks.

Depending on context it could be either 1) too or 3). so but without context I would go for 3).

Hi,

I have recently taken an aptitude test . . .

What kind of aptitude test includes a question like that? Was the test for a job as a cheese salesman?

Best wishes, Clive
