How do you feel about plain cottage cheese?
In favor? Against? Neutral?

Me, I love it. :9

Sniffa is horrified by that. :D

I'm gonna eat some right now, in fact :D

What say you? :hi:

3. Oh yes. Yum. But I always require a little bit of salt and pepper.
Also--get a bag of original Lays potato chips and a tub of cottage cheese. Carefully scoop up cottage cheese with chip. Insert into mouth. Chew. Die happy. :9

6. It's delicious.
By itself or with fruit. I love to cut a cantaloupe in half, scoop out the seedy party, and put a half a pint of cottage cheese in there. Yummmmmm.

10. Can't live without it.
Got 3 large fart factories here. Without the cottage cheese the dogs would gas us out of house and home.

12. Love it.
We used to make it on the farm where I grew up. It is a lot stronger than store bought.

18. I think I'm neutral
I like it but I never buy it because I don't think I'd finish it and I don't want to throw any away.
Does it go bad fast, or slow?
Maybe I need to get some, my stomach's growling now x(

21. It's vile if it's the wrong consistency.
Most are too chalky with not enough liquid. It has to be large smooth curd with the right about of creamy whey. It's hard to find, so if you see me in the grocery store shaking the cottage cheese by my ear to listen for the slosh of whey, just snicker and wave. :P

24. I like it
the small curd kind is best.

Pass sniffa a big bowl of it.

I hated the stuff when I was a kid. My evil mother actually used it as punishment once - It was awful.

32. Aw... I just remembered I'm supposed to stop eating dairy.
I have horrible horrible allergies, and my sister suggested not eating dairy. I started yesterday. Or stopped, rather.

Anyway, I was just remembering this thread, and how I like to get a big spoonful of lovely cottage cheese as a snack when I'm feeling peckish.

No more of that I guess. :(

34. I can't look at it, can't watch someone eat it, can't watch TV commercials for it.
Edited on Mon May-19-08 06:20 PM by Shakespeare
I've tried SO hard to like the stuff, but my throat just closes up and my barf reflex kicks in every time I try. It's the only food that literally makes me vomit if I try to eat it. :-(

You should see me lunge for the remote when one of those Knudson cottage cheese commercials comes on. :scared:

I don't know if it's a taste thing or a texture thing. Hell, even typing about it is grossing me out.

Tell sniffa I feel his pain.

Edited to add: I even have a hard time with curd-y ricotta. :scared:

37. Its something I can eat for about five minutes
Before getting so disinterested with it I can't eat any more.

It doesn't disgust me - it just has no flavor and cannot sustain this ADHD boy's brain.

38. that's what I had for lunch today
Half a cup of no-fat cottage cheese sprinkled with dill weed, eight ounces of low sodium V-8, and several crackers. Mmmmmmmm. One of my favorite lunches!

I've come to love the no-fat variety best. I don't know how, but it tastes creamier than the others!

42. Small curd cottage cheese with pepper is ok.
BUT, small curd cottage cheese with pepper, paprika, and jellied cranberry sauce is DAMN GOOD, in my opinion.
