    LOVE cottage cheese! I eat it straight...just like ice cream. I'll also add it to a salad. Not a fan of mixing it with fruit...

    I like to eat mine with pepper as well, or with a tsp or so of salsa mixed in it, It is also great with greek yogurt and fresh berries.

    I love it with just about anything I have added it to! My favorite way to eat it though is with pineapple. Something about those two flavors just click! Also I like to steam a large Swiss Chard leaf then use it like a tortilla and wrap it around a Field Roast chipotle chorizo grain sausage and a good helping of cottage cheese, Delicious!

    I usually eat it with something salty like a cracker or I used to put some goldfish crackers in it.

    Cottage Cheese is a great protein, but it is high in sodium. If CC and salty crackers are part of your routine diet, add sodium as one of your tracking columns.

    I like it plain or with black pepper and tomatoes. It's also good with turkey sandwiches, like in place of mayo. I slather it on bite by bite. Yummy.

    I eat it plain but you will love it or hate it. No one in my family or extended family will eat it. I ate it as a young child so I like it.

    Eat it with some pineapple mixed in. YUMMY!

    It's also good just on its own. :-)

    You can also mix it into plain pasta instead of sauce.

    Eat it plain. I love it plain but also love it with peaches on top. Yum!

    But yes, it is an acquired taste and texture. Some just don't like it. That's ok!

    Love it with peaches best, but also like crushed pineapple. Sometimes I'll also cut a tomato into wedges (don't cut all the way through the peel on the bottom...you want it to look like it's "blooming" like a flower), then stuff the middle with cottage cheese and top it with a little black pepper. YUM!

    Many people eat it with any kind of fresh fruit - thats why they sell it like that. I like to mix it with tuna fish and pepper.

    I am a new kid to cottage cheese. I have literally never taken a bite of it before in my life. To be honest, I am kind of scared of it, as i don't do really well with textures... LOL

    However, I bought some at the grocery this weekend. Any suggestions on how to eat it?

    I LOVE cutting up half a banana and mixing it with cottage cheese, a little vanilla extract, and some stevia (or your favorite sugar substitute). It's kinda like banana cream pie, except high in protein and relatively healthy :-).
