Cottage Cheese

Cottage Cheese, 16 oz

Perfect for Your Cottage! Organic Valley's farm-fresh cottage cheese has flavor to spare. Hand-crafted without the preservatives or additives found in other cottage cheeses, it's made from pure, wholesome milk and non-animal rennet, which turns milk into "curds and whey." The resulting cottage cheese is suitable for lacto-vegetarians and is certified kosher.

Yeah What the heck is Organic Guar Gum, Organic Locust Bean Gum? I looked at the cottage cheeses at Sweetbay and all contained a bunch a other junk ingredients. What is wrong with you people that nobody sells REAL cottage cheese??!
Tracy at Organic Valley

Hi Joel! The organic gums in our cottage cheese are polysaccharides produced by fermented sugars. These gums are added to thicken and stabilize our cottage cheese which allows us to ship our product nation wide. We've found without a stabilizing/ thickening agent, our cottage cheese would begin to separate making the product watery and undesirable. In an effort to use only organic ingredients, we choose to use the organic guar gum and organic locust bean gum you have referenced. Thanks for the note. I'll happily pass your comments along to our product team.

I can't find any good cottage or farmers cheese which taste good. Nothing compares to these made in Central/East Europe.
I also tried Organic Valley and it was the worst cottage cheese I have ever tried. Organic doesn't mean tasty. I had to throw it away. It was inedible. I hate wasting my money.

Hi Anna, Please allow me to apologize for your experience with our Cottage Cheese.  One of my colleagues in customer relations will contact you directly to get more information about your experience to share with our Quality Assurance Department.

I love this cottage cheese (and your sour cream). I have to admit that I rotate between your products and those of your neighbors, Westby Co-Op Creamery. I have to support both of you and your missions to bring quality, hormone-free dairy to America.

I'm curious about the objections to guar gum and locust bean gum. Aren't they natural thickeners? Just wondering...

I wanted to chime in on the dismay at finding guar gum and locust bean gum in Organic Valley cottage cheese. Please take it out, and give us a pure product!!
Leonard from New York, NY on June 16th, 2011
I have the same question that was already asked on this page: why do you need to add Organic Guar Gum, Organic Locust Bean Gum and other unnatural stuff? What's the point? The cottage cheese made of nothing but milk and salt is very tasty. No need to add the gums.

Here in Central Florida, Walmarts are starting to sell Organics Valley again. We have just gotten them in and they should be on shelves in a few weeksi'm guessing. So far I have come across Ricotta cheese, cottage cheese and Sour Cream.
annette from boynton beach, fl on April 13th, 2011
how can i get other supermarkets to sell this brand. I wished walmart, target, and publix would sell organic valley cottage cheese, cheese and sour cream.
Neko from on January 19th, 2011
I would also want to know if there is a NON-Salt cottage cheese, please, answer the question. Thank you
Angie at Organic Valley

Hi Neko, At this time, we do not offer a no salt cottage cheese. We have received a number of request for a reduced-salt variety, and that is under consideration. Thank you!

Peter from Ashville, NC on September 30th, 2010
Can you let us know if there is a way of getting no salt cottage cheese?
