What it is

Organic lowfat cottage cheese is a fresh cheese product made from pasteurized organic skim milk. The milk is curdled using cultures and an enzyme called rennet, then the curds are cut, cooked, and washed before being mixed with a dressing, often containing cream or milk, salt, and stabilizers.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use cottage cheese as a protein-rich ingredient and a creamy texture enhancer. It is commonly found in breakfast items, deli salads, dips, and as a base for baked goods.

Health notes

Cottage cheese is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a good source of protein and calcium. The WHO/IARC has not classified cottage cheese regarding carcinogenicity. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.

Allergen info

Cottage cheese is derived from milk, which is one of the FDA's 9 major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
