I will be giving it a try starting next week </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503857 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 16:51:58 +0000 T-Mom 503857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love cottage cheese and fed it to my kids as baby food prior to 1 yr. They liked it with fruit or purees. They don't like it as much these days (i think it's a texture thing) but it was a great way to get fat into them early on. I would also blend it up with meat or veggies and they loved it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503736 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 16:08:57 +0000 ladyfingers 503736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Delicious. It's like creamy cheese -- closer to cream cheese taste-wise. Not at all like yogurt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503733 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 16:07:26 +0000 CarrieLouWho 503733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love it! Apparently since I was a baby because my dad always says I was a weird kid that loved cottage cheese (he thinks its gross).<br /> I prefer small curd and Breakstones is my favorite. I think the consistency is a little thicker like greek yougurt, but it's chunky. </p> <p>Love it with fresh pineapple and peaches! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503635 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 15:27:18 +0000 LazyLightning 503635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I eat it by the bucket. Loved it as a kid too. It's a great source of calcium!</p> <p>Also: I put paprika on it. YUM. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503542 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:55:20 +0000 Weagle 503542@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: Yeah, it's a texture thing. Too slimy :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503532 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:52:36 +0000 Mrsbells 503532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: yes the only reason why dairy milk is banned is because of the worry that people will replace formula/breastmilk with cows milk which doesnt provide enough nutrients for child under 1. Its explained better here <a href="http://wholesomebabyfood.momtastic.com/tipYogurt.htm" rel="nofollow">http://wholesomebabyfood.momtastic.com/tipYogurt.htm</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503528 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:50:22 +0000 blackbird 503528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh in that case, she may really like it! I didn't know that some dairy is ok. the texture kind of reminds me of baby food since it's a little chunky but not too chunky </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503523 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:49:39 +0000 allison 503523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's disgusting, but a toddler I nannied for once LOVED it. She would eat an entire bowl and beg for more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503519 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:47:04 +0000 GrapeCrush 503519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i love cottage cheese! i want to give it to DS(8 months) but haven't gotten around to it yet, and he had the stomach flu last week and isn't handeling dairy the greatest right now, so we are holding off for a couple weeks. he's had dairy before though, cheese, cream cheese </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503512 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:45:21 +0000 Mrsbells 503512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tororojo: haha yeah it is lumpy and weird looking, cant believe i forgot how it tastes lol. @Weagle: wow you dont eat yogurt? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503510 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:44:30 +0000 Mrsbells 503510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: yes they can have some dairy like cheese &amp; yogurt before the age of one, but not milk. </p> <p>I think I will just have to buy a little tub of it and see how she likes it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503489 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:37:28 +0000 Weagle 503489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like cottage cheese. We offered it to LO at 6.5 months old. She wasn't a fan. It's not like cream cheese. I don't eat yogurt, so I don't know how to compare it to that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503473 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:29:31 +0000 blackbird 503473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like cottage cheese, but it's a dairy product (can they have that before 1 year old? i have no idea)....i like it with pineapples and such. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503465 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:27:50 +0000 tororojo 503465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The idea of it kind of grosses me out and I've never tried it by itself, but I sneak it into casseroles, pasta dishes and enchiladas b/c I know it's healthy. But it looks so yucky... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cottage-cheese-1#post-503450 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 14:23:19 +0000 Mrsbells 503450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you like cottage cheese and do you feed it to your LO? I'm thinking of introduction this to my 8.5 month old. I cant rememebr how it tastes though, its been so long. is it like cream cheese or yogurt? </p>
