I recently discovered that the Internet is gentrifying cottage cheese and it explains why it's so hard to find now even in rural ass North Carolina.

They're taking my breakfast.
Cottage cheese. Bowl. Salt and pepper.
Spoon.

@Shelter that's the only way to eat it.

FYI, we have plenty down here.

@Graci

I buy whole milk everything including cottage cheese and yogurt and the full fat cottage cheese is hit or miss here

@Shelter Yeah? I don't bother with the 2% or skim either. And not FL brand. Got some Breakstone's in the fridge.

@Graci
I buy FL 4% when nothing else is on sale.
If any 4% is available.
Currently have Breakstone's because it was on sale but really like Daisy, too.

@Graci
Me, too.
Probably because it's all our FL has.

@Graci
It's been my first morning protein for a ridiculous amount of years.
Shove it into face while drinking coffee so things don't get weird.
It's handy.

@Shelter I remember the first time me ex and now my wife both saw me putting pepper on cottage cheese. Lol

@Graci

Sometimes I put Montreal Steak Seasoning on it just for the giant pepper and salt chunks.
Gotta have black pepper on cottage cheese.

@Graci
I use large ground black pepper anyway, so this is like a treat.
Stir it in, nom.
My husband is a canned peaches on cottage cheese person. I didn't grow up that way. No sweet. Only savory.

@Graci
When I had lunch at my grandparents' house it was invariably a cup of Campbell's Manhattan clam chowder, a small bowl of cottage cheese with salt and pepper, and OTC oyster crackers for the clam chowder.

@Shelter My parents lived NE clam chowder. I preferred anything but seafood.

@Graci

It's really hard to find those crackers here.

@Shelter I haven't given them any thought in years. I love them on a corn chowder. Wife hates chowders

@Graci

They're super by themselves with horseradish.

@Graci
So good for scooping and shoving it into your maw.
