I used to love cottage cheese (regular never tried the cinnamon apple? sounds gross) but lately i just cant do it any more. tastes horrible.

pineapple in cottage cheese, yup! Delish!

in salads, protein shakes... plain.. yes, it's just you!

I buy the sodium free because YES it's high in sodium (if you get the full sodium) but the protein count is awesome!

I also find it definitely depends on the brand you buy, some of the brands are yuck, others are delish!

it grew on me over the years. i like it w/ cracked black pepper and wasa. ill have it on salads too.

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:

I agree, I LOVE it!
I like Organic Valley's 4% fat. If it's under 4% fat I don't care for the texture. Too chalky and dry.

Its disgusting. I can't even eat it. I tried one time and couldn't stop gagging on the stuff. Even with fruit its awful. I don't understand how people can eat it....

Cottage cheese is always better with salt and pepper on it, and the lower the fat the less good it is. Get the 4 % fat on and its alot creamier and it might add an additional 20 to 40 calories but so much better tasting. I also find I don't enjoy eatting it by itself. Better with fruit, pineapple or tomatoes. I also like to add it to shredded cabbage and add some dill weed and lemon juice to make a really good creamy cole slaw. It is tart but I like it tart. If you like it sweet, you could add a packet of equal. I don't think you can judge cottage cheese on a fair basis if you got the super low fat one. I like cottage cheese and find that one inediable.

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.

Me too, to both! I've never heard of anyone else eating cottage cheese with Doritos before. We all eat it on salad. It also helps stretch the salad dressing.

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.

I eat cottage cheese all the time, and I'm definitely not obese! Everything in moderation.

I can't imagine it with anything sweet, either. I also can't stand the sour taste of Trader Joe's nonfat cottage cheese. I've found every other brand great!

I'd give it one more shot-- if you went with 2%, try nonfat. Add in some chopped tomatoes.

If you don't like it, no big deal! There are a lot of ways to enjoy dairy.

I personally love it! My fave is cottage cheese (large curd) with pepper and sliced pears with a little of the pear juice. Yumm!

Yeah, that is a really incorrect generalization to make.

the brand i ry was brickstone i believe it was the 100 calorie with apples and cinnamon and i though oh it going to be good and then when i taste it i was like hell nah and i try three bites before i give up and i said i gve up :sad:

I"m not a huge fan of it, but I love it with light garden vegetable cream cheese! All I end up being able to taste is the cream cheese. I put those two things on melba toast together. My fave snack.

Never been a cottage cheese fan unless it's mixed into jello or something, or with a ton of sugar on it, which kind of defeats the purpose

My wife is skiny (I mean I know all her bones and she would fall into unconsciousess if she would jump a meal) but loves this nasty stuff (understand by this that I hate the taste of this sh**** ).

On the other hand, this is too fat for me.
By the way, I look for some cheese having less fat (I am on Gouda)...or what else could I put on my bread in the morning with no fat?

Thank you and sorry for changing subject

i'M GOING TO TRY4% FAT ONE AND SEE IF IT LIKE IT IM GOING TO PUT SOME WITH PEPPER AND SOME WITH FRUIT IN IT AND SEE AND IF IM WRONG ILL LET YOU KNOW BUT IF IM RIGHT EITHER WAY IM GOING TO LET YALL KNOW

I love cottage cheese. I eat it plain. Brand does make a difference - in Australia, Dairy Farmers make a really nice high protein, low moisture low fat variety which I eat a lot of.

oh honey let me tell yo how i love greek yogurt i think i would marry the person who created such a great thing it so thick and creamy and good let me stop being fresh lol

Yes. . love my greek yogurt. . .

Cottage cheese has to be very fresh and not full of artificial ingredients for me to eat it. I can eat Breakstone low fat or fat free right out of the container, but the stuff they serve in salad bars -- yecchh.

KayteeBear

For some reasons I have a love/hate relationship with it. Sometimes the texture totally gets to me and I can't even stand to have it in my mouth..but other times I could eat a whole container of straight cottage cheese...

honeysprinkles

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 am the opposite. I love cottage cheese. I've heard great things about greek yogurt, so I tried it and hated it. I don't like regular yogurt and greek was even worse to me.

beethedreamer

I think it's horrible! It's totally a texture thing for me, and a spoiled milk looking product does not appeal to me. However, my boyfriend loves the stuff. He almost ate it with steak the other night..I almost gagged

courtneyt77

Cottage Cheese. Pineapple with a packet of Equal. Awesome. Greek yogurt is reallllly good too. It took some getting used to. However I have swapped Greek Yogurt with Sour Cream and you can't tell the difference.

MrsObundles

I looove cottage cheese! Try it with some fresh blueberries and sunflower seeds.

DesertSunsetRain

I definitely do not like cottage cheese. I agree, it is nasty.

I do have a question though... why is everyone so obsessed with Greek Yogurt? I have never tried it myself, but it seems lie no one uses regular yogurt on here... ever. Is it better for you or something?

ejohndrow

You don't say that!

Anyway, I like cottage cheese either plain or with a bit of fruit. My roommate, however can't stand it. So obviously it comes down to what you like, if you don't like it don't eat it.

Barneystinson

I don't like cottage cheese with sweet stuff AT ALL.

I do like cottage cheese (Friendship, 4%) with salsa or italian seasoning & cracked pepper, though. I'm eating some as I type this.

NASTY!!! Taste and texture. There are so many good things for you and cottage cheese can be kicked to the curb!
