Brother, this is all going downhill fast,,,,,,
Haven't tasted it to my knowledge and am thinking to keep it that way. My grandfather drank it and here I can go on yet again about some bad childhood memories....to quote the great Shelly Berman: "It's not the buttermilk that bothers me,,,,it's the way the glass looks when you're through drinking it that makes me sick."

I wish I could find that bit online -- it was a classic routine of his. My dad had the lp way back in the 60's and I found it at a used sale someplace a few years back. I could almost recite that line-for-line. I remember thinking how 'adult' I thought it was because it was recorded live in a nightclub and he said "damn" in a couple of places.

especially the chocolate? ai. geez, so what else is it a comparable sin to mix other flavors with? i mean, yeah, to your personal tastes. which are yours, i understand. i mean, pat just mentioned chili with cottage cheese...whoa! there's a true 'Eeeew!' to me. but chocolate? This here is a "poll" rockdoc. Opinions are what it's all about. That being said, cottage cheese is fit ONLY for baked potatoes. People who eat it with fruit (or chocolate?!) scare me. It is nothing like yoghurt, therefore unfit for consumption with any kind of sweet flavoring. Although yoghurt is pretty gross anyway. I just started eating plain yoghurt for health reasons and still I have to gag it down like nasty medicine. Am I correct in thinking that kefir is non-dairy? I should probably be eating that instead but it is way more expensive than plain yoghurt. Really, all dairy products are exceedingly vile if you put any thought into what they really are. Fortunately, some of them taste pretty damn good. Don't think I'll ever find myself eating a chocolate-glazed vanilla cheese curd bar, but fuck yeah I want my burrito smothered in mozzarella and cheddar and sour cream! Buttermilk, I have no idea. It's probably disgusting. I can't stand real butter either, unless it's baked into something or used as a um.. saute-er. Great polls, JAC! I don't think my life would have been quite the same if I hadn't had the chance to read about everyone's opinions on what should be eaten with cottage cheese. And yes, your taste buds must be failing you or that was a bad batch. Yeck!

yeah, so? hmmm, what rule was it that i broke by expressing an opinion of mine? i was doing the same thing as everyone else.
and kefir definitely is 'dairy', same inoculated-with-lactobacillus origins as buttermilk AND yogurt in fact.

ah. all i know is my mom started making her own and she made me feel the spongey blob thing that cultures it. i thought she said it was some kind of mold spore thing and all she does is strain water through it every day. i don't know. i don't want to know, it's gross. it seemed to me you were taking quite a bit of offense at people saying (for instance) that chocolate would be gross with cottage cheese. if someone said that cottage cheese would be disgusting with baked potatoes... well, they would be wrong.

Cottage cheese on baked potatoes? That's some weird shit. I just put some pepper on mine (cottage cheese that is, potatoes need sour cream) and eat it straight.

I just don't understand why these people are using cottage cheese for things sour cream is clearly superior for. Like chili. Sour cream and cheddar cheese are really the only acceptable things to put in chili.

the only two people who love sour cream more than me are my wife and my 3 and a ½ year old son...he'll spoon it straight out of the package, the little freak.
at least i put it ON something.

I guess my stepsister used to be found on top of the refrigerator eating handfuls of butter as a baby. They should clearly be making butter out of breastmilk, given so many instances of babies' infatuation with straight dairy products.
Actually I recently discovered that Tofutti cream cheese substitute (and sour cream) and they're both seriously not bad. The only reason I started eating dairy again is because I had zero energy and noticed that when I eat yoghurt and cheese I have energy. If someone outlined a viable (read: relatively cost-effective) alternative I'd give up dairy again in a heartbeat. I don't think I need to be consuming breastmilk anymore, much less other animals' breastmilk. Awesome as some forms of it taste.

I typically deck out my baked potato with cheese, butter, sour cream, bacon, some cajun spice, all sorts of stuff. But once all the meat is really gone, that's when I'll pile on the cottage cheese and take down the potato skin. BUT I don't mind just eating cc on a potato if nothing else is available. And Fritos or crackers are also acceptable in chili in addition to cheese and sour cream. But not cottage cheese.

You can put all kinds of things on baked potato but butter and sour cream is a must. It's the bare minimum.
