What are you defining as “weird” ingredients?
There’s artificial preservatives, added minerals, acidulants, & stabilizers. There’s certainly cleaner label cottage cheeses out there, but all of these ingredients are pretty commonplace in dairy products.
Yes you highlight a great point, anything can be bad it is about the ingredients, with that said avoid the gums and preservatives. This is a big issue with dairy products, thankfully with cottage cheese there are two very clean brands. I recommend Nancys brand and good culture.
The only cottage cheese I can eat is good culture. All other cottage cheese tastes awful to me. That’s a warning though as I can seriously not eat any other brand of cottage cheese. The ingredients are: ORGANIC SKIM MILK, ORGANIC WHOLE MILK, ORGANIC CREAM, SEA SALT, LIVE AND ACTIVE CULTURES.
First of all, fat is essential, low fat means higher carbohydrates & often more unhealthy ingredients. I seek high fat with few if any extra ingredients, & make my own high fat yogurt. Boosted my red cell count greatly. The more processed & man made it is, the more it will destroy my health.
It is extremely healthy if you make your own! I make my own with one ingredient Raw Milk. 👍
And if you haven’t noticed by now the government puts toxic ingredients in just about every product you buy In supermarkets.
Yep. In theory it is if you can get a very simple one without all those additives. Many of those are gut irritants or worse. Sometimes good fresh/farmers cheeses are available without all this added junk
I purchase ‘Cottage cheese Dry Curd’
