Cottage Cheese

[Maxlass]

I see a lot of people on this forum including cottage cheese in there diet I'm wondering why this is. I had a look and there is about 11g of protein per 100g so it's not exceptionally high and around 100 calories. Is it included because it gives you a feeling of fullness or is it slow digesting? I love cheese and would be happy to find any new addition to my diet as it can become quite boring.

Slow digesting protein (casein). I prefer it most nights rather than drinking a shake before bed. Personal preference really.

I think your last sentence says it all. When dieting it can get very boring so the more high protein foods you can find along with variety the greater chance of success you will have.

Cottage cheese is like Bubba Gump shrimp. You can throw in some walnuts, fruit, honey, or pretty much anything else you want. I'll even mix some in with my egg whites. Whatever your preference, it's a great source of protein, and the low fat is low in cholesterol.

+2 for the casein. I also drink some of the slower digesting protein prior to bed. Love the fact I don't wake-up 10 minutes later having to piss.

People usually eat it by the cup from what I've seen not in 100g servings. A cup of it has 28g protein which is pretty good plus all the other nutritional benefits of dairy. Slow digesting or fast digesting is unimportant in this context. It should just be viewed as a protein source

I thought casein (cottage cheese) was eaten before bed to supply a steady stream of "aminos" while I sleep so I don't end up in a catabolic state .
@Docd187123, when would you eat cottage cheese?

 

[Xlgx]

The ones I have seen are high in sodium. Otherwise. Bottoms up

Ricotta has too much fat ; I find the low-fat cottage cheese is best for fat control , it has hardly any calories or fat and is mostly casein protein , perfect right before bed .

Below is my "little" collection of 5 gallon cottage cheese containers ....eat-up !!~ lol

Just gotta find somewhere that sells big tubs. All I could find is 350g punnet.

Cottage cheese is gross. It taste like something curled up in a ball and died and then someone put it in a container and sold it.
Its not like the gross you get when you are trying to get down some chicken or tuna for the hundredth time in the last 100 days. Its gross like licking the side-walk in a busy city after a parade.
Im only saying this because I bought some and I always forget how nasty it is until the 1st bite. But im too cheap to throw it away, so I gotta eat it...
F YOU COTTAGE CHEESE!
