Is my fear of cottage cheese rational? Is it worth trying to overcome?

>> No.6248864

i never have had cottage cheese (well i have, but like a spoonfull of it years ago)
for some reason when ever i attempt to eat it i get a uneasy feeling

so i can't really help with fear.

do you like salty savory things?

>> No.6248875

It's bland. But try this: put it in a blender with some nutmeg and parmesan.

Once blended, think of it as low fat ricotta. and use it as filling for stuffed shells or a non-bechamel lasagne filling.

Needs pepper, then it's perfect.

I like it plain, but also like it with add-ons. Thousand Island was a staple I learned growing up from my dad.

Now I like Sriracha in it. Black Pepper is alright.

I like it plain, too.

Mix it with some salsa and use it as a dip

yes, it is pretty good this way, but on its own just add salt, pepper, and a dash of celery salt, that makes it pretty tasty

I always used to just eat it plain. Then, a couple of years ago, I tried it on a cucumber sandwich and never looked back.

Get a brand that doesn't have thickeners and other shit added. The most common one is Daisy.

Get 4% milkfat.

I have never had cottage cheese. Can anyone describe what it tastes like? Because I thought it was bland/sweet and honey would go well with it, but I keep seeing pepper as a good addition.

>> No.6250398

>>6250383
It's extremely mild, in the same way that milk is. It's basically milk with texture, so it takes to anything. Canned fruit, honey, jams, etc go well with it, but so do things like pepper, hot sauce, and spices.

Well, it's _cheese_. You can have cheese in sweet dishes or savory ones.

Good choice. When I go sweet, I find that pineapple preserves(or sundae topping) is the best.

I put cottage cheese next to alfalfa sprouts and braunschweiger for nostalgia foods.

I still eat the latter 4 days a week, crave cottage cheese, and long for fucking sprouts.

I think you may need to educate yourself on what a tripfag is, and then note the lack of a tripcode.
