Cottage Cheese

Cottage cheese is coming into its own with consumer demand for healthy foods. Cottage cheese provides high quality protein and is also a good source of riboflavin and calcium. Most of the major brands are bringing out low fat versions and their ranges are expanding.

Better for You, Morrison's*

Cottage Cheese with Crunchy Vegetable, Better for You, Morrisons*

This brand looks good but our panel found it tasted a little dry and bland. An aftertaste of peppers was a little overpowering.

Conclusion

Our panel agreed the standard of the brands tasted was very good; there was no real loser. Cut up some carrots and cucumber and use it as a dip; try cottage cheese on top of a baked potato; use it in salads and sandwiches.
