Well I have now tried various brands of cottage cheese – and still been unsuccessful in my mission to “like” it.  I have now found out there are vaious curd sizes.  Apparently I was just eating the standard, but they make small curds.   Guess what do not, I repeat DO NOT buy Daisy brand small curds.  It looks like little hamster food pellets, and probably tastes as good.  Which when eating eat, did not really mesh with any of the fruit I was trying.  I’ve tried various fruits:  strawberries, pineapple, blue berries, and pineapple has definitly been my favorite.  Since I was having such bad experiences I have everyone try what I’m eating.    Just to make sure it’s not always in my head.  Confirmation that some brands are better that others.  I also tried the Land O Lake’s brand – not good.  It was just recommended to me to try the Knudsen (small curd).  Still searching… on my quest to find my way to cottage cheese heaven: )
