Square in a Regular Tetrahedron

Given a block of cheese in the shape of a regular tetrahedron. Give a symmetry argument for why it is possible to make a single cut through the block of cheese such that the two cut faces are square. Is there a way to make a single cut so that the two cut faces are equilateral triangles? If yes, how? If no, why not?
