  • Cottage Cheese- 1%, 2% ?????

    Hello All,
    Have a question regarding cottage cheese what do I eat? 1%, 2%, 4%?
    It doesn't mention it in the 2002 book.

    TIA

    Hello,
    You'll want to eat full fat cottage cheese. Those 1%, 2%, 4% cottage cheeses have fillers in them, mainly sugar. Meaning more carbs. All low fat dairy has sugar as to replace the fat.

      Definitely the 4% or highest fat. Look at the ingredients--they put a lot of thickeners in different brands. You have to read the labels on all dairy. You'd be surprised at what they put in dairy and still put 'all natural' on the front. Most cottage cheese has plaster of Paris to thicken it--that's right--wall plaster! It's considered 'natural'.
      People who say it can't be done, should not interrupt those doing it.

          The highest I can find around here is 2%. So I just don't eat it

            Same here. But I have it. I just add a bit of cream to it. Tastes good.

                As far as I know, 4% is as high as it goes. That is from full fat milk.
