Lowfat Cottage Cheese: A FitMan Food

by FitnessMantra on May 27, 2006

FitMan Foods have a common and easily discernable theme:

  1. they are not excessively high in total calories per serving
  2. they usually contain a good percentage of either protein, fiber or good-fats
  3. they are rich in nutrients, (either vitamins and/or minerals)

Breakstone's 2% Milkfat Cottage Cheese Snack PackLowfat Cottage Cheese is one such wonderful Fitman Food. My own favorite is Breakstone’s 2% Milkfat Cottage Cheese and I prefer their snack pack variety because it is so convenient to plop a cup into my lunchbag each morning for a mid-morning snack.

Each 4-oz serving of lowfat (2%) cottage cheese contains:

  • 90 calories
  • just 2.5g of fat (1,5g sat),
  • 15% of your daily calcium, and best of all …
  • … 11 whopping grams of lean protein

It is nutritious, easy to include in your routine and topped with our favorite Fitman Food, almonds, it makes for a super-snack!

Since some people complain that it is not the best tasting of foods, Stumptuous has a whole page of recipes, so you have no excuses! Kraft’s page also lists other ways to eat cottage cheese

I am having a very hard time find the 4oz, four back of your cottage cheese here in Baton Rouge, La. I have tried three of my stores.
Are you not packageing it any more with the activia included. I don’t need that.
Thank you very much

Looking at Breakstone Cottage Cheese and just realized Kraft owns it. I simply cannot think of a company which has screwed up so many once good food products. From Planter’s Peanuts which were at one time always fresh and now guranteed stale, to various snack crackers and now cottage cheese. You have most likely owned Breakstone for a long time, my ignorance. Have you ever thought of trying a product on you own somethime?
