have you tried it? Is it real cottage cheese?
I perhaps might not be the best person i ask. I only utilize it for increasing protein in foods i make. I do not like cottage cheese on fruit or crackers as others might. It has a smooth texture, not bad.

Sure doesn't look like real cottage cheese. I'm gonna take one for the team and try one if they have them here.

The Bravo here in SC has brought 5 different brands since they opened. Each time I'd buy everything on the shelf.

You'd think they would keep offering it.

When the new Supermarket Ines first opened, they had Breakstone and I bought all of them too. I even showed them in my cart to the owner and told him I'd be a steady customer if he kept bringing it.

Think that made a difference?

And while were at it, I have never seen a supermarket that overcooks their rotisserie chicken more than they do. Their chickens are Black. I id you not.

You really sing the praises of Breakstones cottage cheese. Maybe you've just been baking on an island way too long. Most commercial cottage cheese brands contain stabilizers, texture/flavor enhancers, tons of salt and flavorings (both natural and artificial). While Breakstones isn't the worst, it's clearly not the best. One thing in foods that's really sneaky and dangerous to the human metabolic system is a modified starch. In the case of Breakstones, it's tapioca starch added for thickening and stability (shelf life). It's also is responsible for that "creamy" texture that you have been singing the praises of for a decade or more.

Breakstone isn't my favorite at all. If you got the impression I'm singing praises for them I apologize for giving you that impression.

My favorite is from Cabot Creamery. And yes, that's one I bought in BRAVO. Who knew?

I'm getting ready to make my own very soon. I've got everything I need; just gotta get in the experimentation state of mind.

Uff, maybe you should make your own. Based on my recollection your house made breakfast sausage was simple, whole and delicious. That said, your Cabot cottage cheese is found with the following metabolic assassins:
Carrageenan
Locust Bean Gum
Guar Gum
Flavoring
Modified Cellulose
Maltodextrin
Potassium Sorbate
This would make Breakstones the lesser of two evils.

Get a cow and a lemon tree and you’ll have bio cottage cheese forever.
It’s disturbing how much rubbish is put in even the simplest processed foods nowadays.
