Low sodium cottage cheese

I've been eating Breakstone Fat Free and it is really good. Probably my favorite cottage cheese but the sodium is really high and so I can't eat it as regularly as I would otherwise. If you know of a good fat free cottage cheese with good flavor but less sodium than Breakstone please let me know. Big points if you can find it in large curd. It seems that large curd has become extinct except for in whole milk cottage cheese.

  • I like to mix half regular cottage cheese with half dry curd cottage cheese. Dry curd cottage cheese has pretty much no sodium plus it has more protein. It does change the taste and texture a bit so this may not work for you!

    I'll try that if I can find it in my store. I don't think I have seen it before.

    googlez says Friendship brand.
    also says low sodium tastes bad.

    Yeah, I tried friendship before but it seems my store stopped carrying it and you're right, it wasn't very good. I was hoping it just takes some getting used to and would have tried it again if I could find it.

    My local grocery store brand makes a low sodium version. It was disgusting. I had to add stuff to each serving to be able to eat it. Compared to being able to eat an entire pint of non-low-sodium cottage cheese at a time, back in the day.
