Cottage Cheese...Gross?

I love cottage cheese.  I eat it almost everyday.  One of my co-workers mentioned to me this morning that if I knew what went in there I wouldn't eat it.

When I asked what is in it that I should knew about they didn't have an answer.

What the heck?

Um, I see nothing odd about cottage cheese.

Seriously. What's weird about it. It's just curd. I had a bowl about 1 hour ago.

Does this co-worker eat fast food???

I think it is just foolish.  But I am getting sick and tired of people talking bad about my healthy food while they put in their mouth something from the vending machine.

My co-workers think I am weird for eating tuna from the can. I think they are disgusting for cramming KFC into their mouths everyday!!!

People are idiots... really. Next time you see the co-worker eating some processed/junk food ask them if they know what's in it? 

????

Yes, people are idiots. Cottage Cheese is good, and good for you! :) And it's just.. another type of cheese.

- HK (wondering what else is "icky" - Cheddar? )

You know I always told myself I wasn't going to become one of those people who are always taking about healthy food and telling people how bad what they are eating is but I could so turn into one of those. 

especially when I get so much "poop" about what I am eating.

Hahahaha.

Would serve someone right! ;D

You know what's funny? I was driving by KFC the other day and it huge letters on their sign, it said "NOW NO TRANS FATS". And I laughed and thought to myself, I doubt that anyone who cares about Trans Fats is really the type of person who frequents KFC...

Oh well, a step in the right direction right?

Well I am a Healthy Eater On The Edge.

Stop Talking Bad About My Food.  :)

I'm vaguely curious what sort of garbage said complainers eat.

Sounds like most of them eat pretty badly, given where Marie ends up eating.

Yes, most of them here eat very badly.  Our vending service comes in during the morning and fills up the machine and by 2pm it is almost empty.  Mostly processed sausages, chili dogs, double cheeseburgers, pizzas, etc.

Otherwise alot of people go to McDonalds, Burger King, we have 2 local mom & pop hamburger places where you have to hurry up and it eat it before it comes through the bag it is so full of grease.  In addition the local resturants feature "big meals", and a favorite here is broasted chicken from the short stop.

None of the local resturants offer any fish on the menus except for dinners and that is at the fancier resturants.

Very limited good choices unless I go to subway or the new salad bar.

Well kudos to Salome and stick with it. You shouldn't give a rat's ass what they think about your food choices. When one of them has a coronary from their double cheeseburger...

ya....and I am licensed CPR/1st Aid.....so guess what I will tell them after I save their life?  ;)

I have to admit I've never had cottage cheese....it's lumpy and well....it looks like milk that has been in the fridge for at least a month.....But that's just personal pickiness on my part ;p

If your co-worker was going to make a statement like that they should have had some facts to back it up....what exactly did they mean?  And who cares really? 

Ask them if they can even PRONOUNCE (let alone buy in a grocery store) all the ingredients in their bag of chips.

*hi5s rdgatewood*

Don't let them bother you.  You should remind them that all of the fast food and processed junk has a certian amount of rat hair, critter parts, etc that are allowed to enter into the product. 

Next time your coworker is eating a hot pocket, tell them that they wouldn't eat it if they knew how much rat hair was in there. :)

Ewwwww.  Cebettencourt, that is completely disgusting (but probably true).  I think maybe you just helped me to stay away from hot pockets for a while.

Do you love cottage cheese straight?

I read another post about cottage cheese and how to eat it also, and I'm looking for ideas!

I fall into that category of.. it is lumpy so mentally I have a block about eating it. I'd love to eat it! I've bought it, planning to eat it. I just can't seem to do it.

Any input is greatly appreciated. :) I want to be one who does talk about health food and eats my cottage cheese while saying YUMMMMY. :P
