I eat it regularly, with just salt and pepper, and sometimes cayenne pepper...............
Chewy milk.
cottage cheese and green olives
or
cottage cheese with pineapple and mandarin oranges
It probably has something to do with the Kurds.
There was a “diet” plate that was popular in diners and the like back in the sixties. Lettuce on a plate with a generous scoop of cottage cheese in the center and ringed with canned fruit salad. Haven’t seen it in years.
Cottage cheese pie
Used to eat it. Just go for fattier cheeses now.

Like eating chewy wallpaper paste.
Why not cottage cheese with avocado? Might try that.

I do not care for the texture.
