Those damn low fat dairy products are the work of the devil. At the risk
of sounding like Bruce, You HAVE to read the labels these days. The last
time I tried to buy ricotta, they only had the low fat version, and in
that case, a regular cottage cheese would be superior.

I know we should limit high fat, but it has gotten ridiculous. Just
don't eat so much chow, and you'll be fine.
