NFT: Random: Cottage cheese, yay or nay?

usually will put some fruit/apple sauce and cinnamon in. Not really great plain.

with Jello, with caraway seeds.

I tried it, I liked it. Kind of like tuna with chunkier mayonnaise.

Jesus Christ I'm gonna be sick...and I like tuna.

As to OP's question: I'd eat my arm off first.

Sorry I got political just trying to get this gross thread deleted.


Nay

Stuff.

It was cottage cheese and peaches on no-meat Fridays during Lent. Have never had it since.

this thread is because of this article right? There is no way this is a coincidence

I like cottage cheese when I am just a little hungry and don't want a full meal.

a spoonful of mayo, its awesome

balsamic vinegar FTW.

.

Some Frank's or Cholula on top and you're good to go

But I only eat when I'm trying to be healthy.

Political, please delete.

I am in the minority, but YAY. Big fan, especially with a fruit line pineapple or watermelon. Lots of people get hung up on the look. I am not one of those people.

I'm not a huge fan, but I'll get some occasionally. Small curd only though.

Cottage Cheese - ( New Window )

profile Ive always wanted to but...its like eating cellulite. Pass.

and it's okay I guess

However, mixed with chopped dried apricots and chopped pecans, it is terrific.

100% coincidental. Was eating it in our break room today. Realized no one seems to like it.

with pineapple

... rumor has it that if you have it more than once you turn into a 49ers fan.

more replies than the Team Chemistry one.

My mom used to add some orange marmalade or strawberry preserves. Only way I would eat it and still true to this day.

salt n peppa or sliced cucumbers or even mixed with baked beans. It's not bad on a baked potato as an alternative to sour cream as well.

Has to be creamy, large curd.

and I dip my mini pretzels in it as a snack

my kid’s room, I have no desire to eat what’s at the bottom of it. Same thing.

Farfalle works v well.

I hated it but never tried adding stuff to it. I do love almost all cheeses.

No one’s asked, is it really a healthy option? Otherwise why eat it???

as cheeses go. You know, source of protein and all.

I really like it in small doses. Probably the actual suggested serving amount. After that, it's a little much.

No need for fruit or other adulteration.

super healthy, tastes good to me.

Its super high in protein without a ton of calories. Fat content is also relatively low. 50g of protein is like 400 calories which is pretty damn good. Some are higher in salt, but i have such a low salt intake that it isn't something I'd be worried about when eating it.

Was never a huge fan but could eat cottage cheese. Mother In Law turned me onto "Good Culture" cottage cheese and I eat it all the time as a snack now, just plain. It's really good, creamier than most others I've had.

the salsa mixed in, then dip any sort of chips

Or mix it with a little arsenic that way I never will have to relive eating that disgusting crap

When it's fresh, it's great. When it's been sitting for a while it loses that flavor and gets at best, gross at worst.

I really like it. (Childhood treat: Cold tuna right from the can, cottage cheese and sour cream.) Yes, it mixes well with other stuff like salsa, fruit.

Bummer: I can't eat it anymore. Recently discovered I'm lactose intolerant. ("discovered" in the sense of "figured out why I've been sick a lot of the time for more than two years.")

Pepper. Especially like it with some crackers. Thumbs down to any sweetened with added fruit

This. Love it with salt and pepper - to bland to eat plain.

Fruit? No.

With all the other ingredients in lasagna, you don't realize the substitution.

I love it. Try it with potato chips, Maybe sounds weird, but delicious. probably my favorite snack.

I have tried to like it but it's always been a no go for me.

Same. Except I won't try it. Greek Yogurt was a big enough step for me and I'll just stick to it. However now that I'm on this lifestyle change thing in terms of eating, maybe I should look into obtaining a pallete for cottage cheese. Maybe if I buy it, I could keep it in the fridge and nobody will eat it.

Thanks for saving me a quick search. So basically its just as protein rich as Greek yogurt? You get about 12-14 G protein per 110-120 calories so very similar , I suppose you consume maybe slightly less sugar but Greek yogurt looks less disgusting (still looks gross tho) tastes decent though
