Well I finally tried some yesterday after about 60 years.
Thanks again to all that responded last week or so about it.

I bought a recommended brand (by someone here).
Whole milk, small curds, "at least 4% milkfat."

2 people mentioned peaches and I had some from last local
season saved in pint containers so I used one.

The peaches are so good but that combo was a fail for me.
Would be so much better combined with vanilla yogurt
or vanilla ice cream.

I ate the small bowl of it but will probably toss the
rest of the cheese. A very rare food that I don't like.

Might still be good in a lasagna but I'll never
risk a good batch of lasagna to try it. I always like
to taste a new food plain at first to see what it
really tastes like. If plain is a fail, just fixing it
up is not good. I did take 4 spoonfuls of it plain
before trying it with the peaches on the side.

Oh well, perhaps I'll give it a try again
in another 60 years. Doubtful.

Before you toss it, try it with pineapple. If that doesn't make your skirt
fly up try it with sliced cucumbers and tomatoes diced on the large size.
Fresh ground pepper on top of the cottage and vegetables is always a treat,
too. Some regular saltine cracks on the side is a bonus.

I wouldn't risk it ... Popeye might be watching.

But I like mangoes with a little cottage cheese.

He might like it if he covers it with ground pepper It could just be
he's not a fan of cottage cheese. I know I'm not. I'll use it to
make lasagna but to eat it plain or with any kind of fruit, nope, fail.

Lots of fresh cracked pepper is my favorite choice. Fruit and veggies not
so much.

dang! feed it to some animal or bury it in the
garden. don't waste food by putting it in the trash.
compost it or reuse it to feed the wormies!

really though, i wish i were closer as i hate the
idea of wasting any food at all and we love cottage
cheese.

right now i'd have some with hot sauce on it. love
that combination.

i also like hot sauce on plain whole milk yogurt
with some sugar sprinkled on top. but i'm trying
to avoid sugar lately so...

well, for sure, everyone has different tastes
but i'm not that picky about foods and can eat about
anything if i have to.

I don't like the full fat. Only the 2%.

I will. With pineapple was my first plan before peaches.

Thanks Joan. I will try these. I did plan to try it differently
before giving up. Others like the black pepper on it too. Will
try all...just a bite at a time.

Daughter will be here this weekend. Will offer it to her too if
she likes it? She never had it here growing up but maybe likes it
now. I'll try all before tossing it.

Regardless, I won't ever buy it again. I can live without this
one product.

The cottage cheese caught me off guard. I'm also not picky and
like about any food. I finally rediscovered one that I just don't
care for though. Oh yeah...don't like "harvard beets" much
either.
Capers are a bit weird too - have had a jar of those in fridge
door forever after using once.

I like cottage cheese, full fat 4%. I like it with no toppings except for a bit of raw pumpkin seeds. It's a health thing.

He's different from me. I like capers. They've very good with cold-smoked
salmon.

Cottage cheese is boring. Harvard beets are beets and I say to hell with it.

My mom would often make garden vegetable cottage cheese; add grated
carrot, minced celery, minced radish, minced bell pepper, minced
celery, minced curly leaf parsley, sliced green onions, diced
cucumber, and whatever veggies one likes, toss gently and serve with a
pepper mill. Sometimes topped with a dollop of sour cream. Presented
on a lettuce leaf. Sometimes garnished with tinned sardines, sliced
hard eggs. I prefer this to adding fruit.

I like pineapple and cottage cheese.

I plan to try a few more toppings first. Bottom line is that I
always taste something new to me plain first. I like to know what
I'm starting with then build on that good taste. If plain is a
fail then all other toppings are just to make a blah food taste
better.

For this reason, I'll try things with this cottage cheese but
won't every buy it again. Not that it's bad, it's just not
something I'll repeat. Plain cottage cheese is a fail in my
household.

Sealtest milk company used to make a 'garden cottage cheese.' I don't know if
this dairy supplier was a regional business or if it was an east of the
Mississippi company or not. But the cottage cheese they offered had tiny,
tiny bits of grated carrot, celery, radish, bell pepper, and not sure what
else. But it was quite good but none of the cottage cheese producers offer
it now.

https://i.postimg.cc/KYX8mrYs/Cottage-Cheese.jpg

This past week while at the grocery I did buy a small carton of spreadable
Philadelphia brand garden cream cheese. It was just about the same flavor
I remember the cottage cheese had but in a soft cream cheese base. Pretty
good smeared on a saltine cracker.

I like it better with canned pears than peaches; nothing wrong with canned
peaches, just the pears get my vote.

I think you are right about that. I should have emphasized canned, as
opposed to fresh.

This too:

However I think they are much better when prepared yourself... and it
would be easy to prepare your own with whipped creamcheese.

I've heard of the Hood brand but it's not available in my area. Even after
filling in my zip code and looking within 40 miles (the limit of distance
they offer on their website) it's nowhere to be found around here. Too bad,
as I'd jump on a carton of that.

I don't know where you are but I'm pretty certain that at least one of
your local dairies sells it.

the funny thing is that Harvard beets are pretty much
just pickled beets with some butter and corn starch...

No, I checked their site and it's not available within a 40 mile radius, not
that I'd drive that far for cottage cheese. I've not seen it in any of the
stores around here.

He also assumes everyone has a "local dairy". I don't know about your
home in east TN, Joan. You might. It's been at least 30 years since
there was a local dairy anywhere near where I lived. Can't just go to
the farm and buy cottage cheese or any other dairy products.

Sheldon's lives in the past. With a dairy on every street corner. And
milk delivered with horse and carriage.

Even in the '60's we still had a dairy doing horse and carriage delivery. It must have been a 'trendy' thing to do at the time.

He lives in an apartment. Likely doesn't have a garden or a compost
bin. It's really a moot point since it's a tiny carton of cottage
cheese he didn't like. Not horrific food waste by any means.

I'm in middle Tennessee and the nearest working dairy is 30 miles away. I'll
just be dropping by Kroger to pick up my milk, cheese, butter, and whatever
other dairy product I might need. Hahahahaaaaa

Jill, stop being so ****ing ignorant... everywhere in the US has local
dairy farms... people don't shop at the dairies, the dairies deliver
to stores... perishable dairy products are trucked no more than 50
miles, typically 25 miles or less. Are you so stupid to think that
the milk where you shop is flown in from Hawaii... it's trucked maybe
25 miles to the store where you shop. There are lots of dairies close
to where you live, DOZENS! If anyone knows about udders it's me,
there are several dairy farms within a short walk from my front door.
Cows are milked every day and their milk is trucked to a nearby dairy
to be processed, from there to the nearby markets. HTF do you think
dairy products get to where you shop, via ET saucers? Dairy farms are
the most basic farms there are... I'm not the only one attracted to
huge udders. Truth is most dairy farms are owned by big bosomed
females... women love milking cows, goats, and sheep.

You really think you know everything about everywhere in the US? LOL

You said, "I don't know where you are but I'm pretty certain that at
least one of your local dairies sells it." I inferred that meant being
able to buy it from a local dairy.

Dairy products around here are trucked in from Georgia, some 60 miles away.

Name a few, please. I one dairy farm listed in Walterboro (about 100
miles away). How does this equate to dozens?

Horse-drawn deliveries still happen in Michigan (on Mackinac Island).

In the 60s in Motown horse-drawn deliveries were long gone. We had
milk and bakery items delivered by panel van.

The Hawaiians love to add milk to their poi so milk production is of vital importance on this rock. Unfortunately, there's only a couple of dairy farms in the state so we rely heavily on the ones that are still around.

Somehow I can't imagine that attaching a milking machine is all that
enjoyable.

In high-tech dairy farms, it's automated anyway.
