Tue Oct 05 2010Wretched, unpleasant garbage that looks like bird droppings and tastes like wall-paper paste.

Tue Oct 05 2010Cottage cheese is delicious, especially in the summer time. Too bad summer's gone.

Tue Oct 05 2010Admittedly it doesn't exactly look apetizing, but I like it, and I think it definitely improves lasagna. Yeah, you read that right, lasagna. I actually prefer cottage cheese to ricotta. I know it's not "proper" or something, but that's how I make it.

Fri Apr 25 2008This is actually very tasty and enjoyable. It's low in fat and it's refreshing, as well as having a flavour, which although not strong, is extremely pleasant and distinctive. Brilliant on Ryvita crackers.

Fri Apr 25 2008Every once in awhile, when I need to shed a few pounds (which, on 2nd thought, is more often than "once in awhile"), I go on a cottage cheese binge. To me, it's pretty tasteless (I buy the kind with the pineapple shreds in it so I can pretend it has at least SOME sort of flavor) and has a nauseating consistency. Generally, I only last a week or so before I temporarily lose what little mind I have left, rush out to the combination gas-station/convenience store nearby, buy a carton of Ben and Jerry's, and wolf it down like a starved Siberian refugee.

Fri Apr 25 2008git, you forgot that it also has a similar consistancy to the thighs of a woman you might see walking down the sidewalk in shorts that should REALLY cover up...

Fri Jan 13 2006I think it tastes pretty bland. It's like a cheap version of ricotta. It's pretty ok with pineapple or berries.

Thu May 05 2005Cottage cheese doesn't get enough credit. It's actually very tasty, once you can get past appearances.

Sun Dec 19 2004Cottage cheese is manna from heaven. I'm actually addicted to it -- I eat it two or three times a day. A typical grocery trip for me includes four 24-oz. tubs of the stuff. I only wish we had Safeway stores in my area, because their Lucerne brand is my favorite.

Thu Sep 23 2004Love it, love the small curd, regular cottage cheese, HATE yogurt, but, I have to agree with another rater, the Darigold CC is way too runny, needs to be drier, and I won't buy it if that is all that is available in the store. They need to fix that runny problem they have. Good in the summer with fruits, with salads, and just with toast for breakfast, but needs to be cold.

Thu Feb 26 2004This is good, it is a good source of calcium and protein, however, I don't think this really belongs in the cheese category

Tue Feb 17 2004This should not qualify as real food. To me it looks like left over bird droppings.

Wed Jun 04 2003Love cottage cheese, but some brands, like Darigold are too runny, they need to be drier and of a thicker consistancy (small curd). I stop buying the brands that are too milky or runny.

Wed Jan 22 2003I could eat this stuff by the bucket load, but not the fat free stuff

Tue Nov 05 2002This cheese is punishment from God! I don't understand the curdy consistency, how freaky! The taste is a total turn-off.

Fri Nov 01 2002I love cottage cheese if it's large curd and is by itself. Some people feel obligated to put fruit with it, but I say there is no accounting for taste. I eat it straight with a little salt and pepper.

Fri Apr 12 2002This varies for me. First of all, I only like two major brands. My first and only choice was once Michigan brand (small curd, 4% milk fat). I still like it but it tends to vary in taste these days for some odd reason – so it’s hit or miss with them. Then a few years ago I discovered Breakstone brand. This one is just as tasty as Michigan (small curd 4% milk fat). The low fat in either brand is obviously better for you but it lacks taste for me in a big way so I buy the 4% and eat smaller amounts of it. Since childhood I have learned to avoid the store generic brands, (large curd and very loose looking) at all costs. They are usually extremely tasteless, bland and the soupy texture is unpleasant. If this had been the only cottage cheese I had ever had I know I would be rating this a 1 rather than a 5. Compared to the two top brands I mentioned it doesn’t even seem like the same food.

Mon Apr 08 2002I've tried several times to east Cottage cheese, but it just doesn't appeal to me for some reason. I like Ricotta cheese better.
