So, among the advantages of cottage cheese, first of all, its pleasant taste, non-liquid consistency, absence of unpleasant acid, as well as a short shelf life are noted. Also, as people say, it is perfectly molded and suitable for preparing various dishes.
Among the shortcomings are the lack of sealed packaging and overpriced. Well, some still complain that he “eats too fast” (maybe someone should just moderate their appetites).
City dwellers are accustomed to stop near this curd, and some say that they will prefer the curd product of this producer to all other brands, and they, in their opinion, are inferior only to home-made, grandmother curd. It is convenient to make cheese cakes out of it for the whole family - this is especially good for children who do not want to eat dairy products in any way.
The taste of cottage cheese, people say, is beyond praise, but the packaging is frustrating. The fact that everyone touches the leaky packaging is horrifying to people, and it is not known how many bacteria migrated with the product from the counter to the table. Therefore, people who are worried about their health, use the curd product only after heat treatment and nothing else.
