I am obviously doing this wrong because so many people swear by it. i tried blitzing it to a smooth paste, adding black pepper, then chilli powder..... etc etc etc.

it is truly the most disgusting thing EVER!! and i never thought i would hate anything with cheese in it's name!

little help here?

    Ahhh nooo.......... I can eat it plain straight out of the container! :-) Are you eating it just like - so with the herbs etc mentioned below or have you tried putting it on a hot baked potato? Yummy! :-)

    Did you try it just out of the container without doing anything to it?? That's my fav way to eat it. I personally would never blend it.

    Blended into a smoothie with fruit is the only way I can eat it.

    The only way I can eat it is in a smoothie. I use it in a recipe for a cheesecake cake batter smoothie that I found here. Has loads of protein and you can't even taste or tell there is cottage cheese in it.

    I am not sure what you mean by blitzing it into a paste. Do you mean in a food processor or blender? I love cottage cheese, small curd only. I eat it as is, but also like peaches on top.

    Some people just don't like the taste or texture, no biggie.

    It's one of many dairy protein delivery systems. It's OK not to like it. Really! Just use another one that you DO like or find other sources of protein. :)

    maybe a smoothie is not a bad idea.... i think the problem is it's baby-sick consistency and too sour taste. reminds me of when my babies were small... but not in a good way! :C

    Well, there is always the option of not eating it. If you do not enjoy something, you should not have to force yourself to eat it "just because".

    What do you think about Greek yogurt?

    LOL I absolutely LOVE cottage cheese. I do understand how some people would find the texture unappealing (like my husband)... but I still love it. :-)

    i read a recipe that said to change the texture, blitz it in a food processor to get a creamy textured dip. WRONG!!! hahaha!!!

    I think there is no in between with cottage cheese. You either LOVE IT! or HATE IT! Might be a texture thing. My mom absolutely loathes the stuff, but i can't get enough. It's good straight up, mixed with blueberries and Kashi, tomatoes and pepper, in smoothies, on potatoes, with a lil fruit preserve. Yummo!

    You dont HAVE to like it, us cottage cheese lovers won't judge you TOO harshly :P

    I'll be damned...I never would have thought anyone would think it was so vile, since I've always loved it. (But after this description, it may be awhile before I eat it again :wink: )

    Why eat any calories you really really dislike? Find something else. It's not worth the heaving.
