In an unexpected twist to the cottage cheese saga that helped ignite last summer's social protests, workers from the dairy company Tnuva announced Saturday that they would block cottage cheese from reaching the market as part of a labor dispute.

The Histadrut Labor Federation authorized the Tnuva workers to open a labor dispute against the company last month. Workers are demanding, among other things, salary increases and better retirement conditions.
