Just curious, what is it with cottage cheese with your dinner?

As far as odd cottage cheese uses go, I'm rather surprised to see people say they put it on toast or crackers. I've never considered it as a spread. I've always just eaten it in a bowl.

Or straight out of the carton, here!

EDIT: I mean other fruit, haha. Tomatoes are a fruit, after all...

I saw something not long ago that said, "Knowledge is knowing tomatoes are a fruit. Wisdom is not adding tomatoes to a fruit salad."

I just did that. I'd bought some because I thought I'd eat that with fruit instead of ice cream (yes, ****-poor substitute, but I have to get some of this fat off of me). Then I forgot I bought it. Just looked at the expiration date, and it said March 6, but it was still sealed. I opened it, ate some, it tasted fine, and so far, I'm still alive.

Never heard of putting it on crackers or toast, either.

I don't like cottage cheese except for Easter cheese pascha. It's cottage cheese with butter, eggs, heavy cream, raisins, vanilla and candied fruit.

I have been eating cottage cheese for dinner for over 30 years. 2 hamburger patties on a plate with cottage cheese and peaches. Love it.

Cottage cheese on toast is my all time favorite, with crackers is another way I like it.

Mmm I love pascha! Best thing about the run-up to easter is that they sell it in the shops so I buy some almost every time I go shopping.
