TweetBy no means am I an expert, but the principle protein type in cottage cheese is casein. Casein has a low glycemic and insulin score. The body will absorb it slower than say whey protein. Its good protein, just not good for post recovery. I usually eat it before bed

Tweeti too eat a cup before bed, just got tired of the same taste so i started adding a little vinilla x, and some splenda!

Tweetexactly, before bed is best. but i like to take in 2-3 diff protein sources per meal. so i often eat 1/2 cup with a meal

TweetDon't necessarily love the stuff plain but it blends well into an evening shake before bed. Always have two tubs of the stuff sitting in the fridge for this purpose. Additionally, it's good when placed into a salad.

TweetI eat some everyday, Actually like the stuff to.

TweetI don't like it any way. Food or on butts and legs.

TweetYou know what's REALLY good with cottage cheese (and this is going to SOUND really gross! hehe - but I swear it's good!), is sweet potato!

I mix 1/2c lf or ff cottage cheese, with 1/4c-1/2c baked mashed sweet potato (heated up separately, then mixed up with the CC), splenda, pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon. Tastes like PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE.
