Squid does not alter the content nor set the content-type header unless it
is generating the content itself (ie an error page or FTP/Gopher directory
listing).

The text/plain you receive was received by squid from the origin server at
some point in response to a particular identical set of request headers.
Squid cached it and is serving that from storage.

Since it has "Vary: Cookie" in the headers and almost every request has
different cookie details (down to timestamps of last access etc) squid will
be slowly accumulating a large collection of unusable copies for that URL.
Any one of these could be the problem.
