Is it just me or is cottage cheese nasty

Momwasix

This morning i call myself trying to be healthy so i go get this 100 calorie cottage with apple cinnamon in it and when i put it in my mouth my gosh i try three bite before i said i call it quits.I said i was going to buy the small ones before i make a decision to buy the bigger ones and everytime i tried it it was nasty so tell me am i just having a texture issue or is it just nasty

I personally find it nasty... and my mother loves it.

If you can't eat it.. then don't! Try Greek Yogurt.. I find that a lot better then cottage cheese.

I like cottage cheese on my salad and with Doritos. I know the second one is a little weird but its good. I have never had it with anything sweet though.

It's not you...I think it's nasty, too! I know some people like it, but I've never been able to develop a taste for it.

I thought I was the only one who dipped tortilla chips in Cottage Cheese. Delicious!

Agreed. Nasty. I don't care how good it is for me ... it's a pass.

I like it with pineapple in it. I could eat it plain too. But there's definitely a difference in taste between 1%-2% and fat free. Don't like the fat free.

I try to like it, but just can't bring myself to eat it! When I do eat it, it just reminds me of how much I hate it!!!

Try plain cottage cheese with fruit and sugar! It's like dessert

I can't hold a bite in my mouth. I find it to be pretty disgusting! Kudos to you for the 3 bites!

I just had to reply to your topic. I agree! Cottage cheese is nasty! I'm not sure if it's the taste or texture or some combination of both but I simply can't stand it. Makes me gag. I seem to have better luck using fat free ricotta instead of cottage cheese, the texture is much smoother. Good luck! I'm sticking to the ricotta or greek yogurt as my "healthy" dairy foods.

i love cottage cheese especially mixed with apple sauce yum

sjtreely

It's gotta be you ... and the others who say it's nasty, cause I LOVE the stuff. Actually, I rarely buy it because I can eat a whole container in one setting.

I like it alone. I like it with fruit. I like it on top of salads. I just like the stuff!!

Nasty!!

It really is an acquired taste. I was able to tolerate it by mixing with fruit (the best was pineapple). However greek yogurt is easier to stomach and is also high in protein and a good dairy source.

The problem I have with cottage cheese, even the full fat variety is the sodium content. I usually eat 1.5 cups at a time which is over 1000mg of sodium. I can eat it straight but the best way I've had it is with frozen berries. Raspberries are my favorite, blueberries are my least favorite. Strawberries are good too. I usually go 1.5 cups to 1/2 bag of frozen berries and a packet of sugar alternative, truvia or something like that. Cinnamon is good in there as well.

If you're mixing it with just apples, you may want to try something like berries at first to adjust to the texture of cottage cheese. Also, I will note that full fat cottage cheese tastes much MUCH better than the low / non fat varieties.

I personally like lowfat cottage cheese by Knudsen if I eat it or Sprouts brand. I don't care for the ones with flavor as they are too sweet and since it is processed sugar it is just gross. .

I like to put olives and pistachios in mine with a bit of black pepper. Other than that I am a much bigger fan of greek yogurt. I put fresh fruit or frozen berries in it, or have it with just a spot of honey. . so good. .

To make it spicy. . I will go with some cayenne and chia seed. . Just my thoughts. . Good luck dearie!:flowerforyou:

I love it! Never tried it with cinnamon and won't because that sounds yuck. I like it plain, or with fruit like peaches or pineapple. While I like the 2% fat best, I buy and eat the fat free.

But if you don't like it, just don't eat it! There are other ways to get your dairy.

hush7hush

Cottage cheese is my favourite food.

Hannah_Banana

You people are nuts O.O

I think I could LIVE on cottage cheese (Plain, and 4% ONLY). Maybe with a little fresh cracked pepper...

Keep in mind, the brand of cottage cheese you buy makes a HUGE difference - its hard to believe they're the same food if you try different brands side by side. For some reason, the only good kind is Deans. :ohwell:

shack1157

It is just GROSS! The most disgusting thing God ever made! Don't know how people eat that #&@*! LOL Did I mention it is just plain nasty?

SHERRYBERRY11

I thought it was just me!!! Im always the one who tries and likes everything, but I cannnot get on board with the cottage cheese...sorry!!!! Its the one and only thing Ive tried and didnt like, other than most seafood!!!!

aclark6818

Absolutely!!! Some people LOVE it!!! Just looking at it actually makes my stomach hurt!

WARNING: cottage cheese causes obesity!

My objective, personal observation is that only fat people eat this stuff.
You never see skinny people ordering cottage cheese.

yesiamaduck

I do love cottage cheese with pineapple, is tres incredible like

But like all things in life some like it and some don't

Bee_B

I don't like it either!! But the rest of my family loves it - they will eat it straight out of the container. Yuck! I too tried to mix some with fruit and I brought it to school for lunch. My friends kept laughing at me because I was making disgusted faces every time I took a bite.... Now the only way I will eat it is if it is completely mixed into something.

agreed. the 2% tastes best.

leynak

Mmm...I love cottage cheese- plain, with fruit, applesauce, on salad...I'll eat it pretty much anyway

DannyMussels

It's just you.

eeeekie

I hate cottage cheese with STUFF in it. I like just plain on toast...

People eat it mixed with fruit or spices and I think it's gross like that.

I only eat the 4%...anything other than that is gross.

kimberly702

I LOOOOOVE cottage cheese with flavored Triscuits. But like someone said before, the brand is EVERYTHING! I had tried a 100 calorie pack, I think it was Brickstone or something like that and it was NASTY! I get my store brand (Kroger) or Highland.
