Lancaster County? You must mean with scrapple...
lol, that i do like as well... but not while dieting
Im OBSESSED with cottage cheese. If I could, I probably would eat the whole container in one sitting! lol

I usually eat 1%

I mix berries in it, or even banana with cinnamon...

BUT! My favorite is diced apple,walnuts and raisins with cinnamon =) so good!

and sometimes I just CRAVE it with all natural chunky Peanut butter...like a tablespoon

I think I should sign myself up for "cottage cheese lovers anonymous".
I will only eat the whipped 1% version....(texture issues)

I usually mix in some frozen grapes, berries or more recently I discovered a no sugar version of smuckers jam...so good!! (they were giving out samples on the LPGA tour...yum). I def prefer cottage chz with sweet but if I go low carb I will switch in tomatoes.
I get the 90 calorie snack pack Breakstone ones and usually drizzle a dressing I make over it:
Balsamic vinegar with dijon mustard, EVOO mixed in.
I like fresh pineapple chunks in it too. Or grape tomatoes. Possibilities are endless. I heart cottage cheese.
i mix a 1/4 ff with a half cup of all bran cereal and a 1/4 cup of plain yogurt... so good as a little snack
I just recently rediscovered cottage cheese as I hated it when I was a kid, but I like it (like someone already said) with pepper, a little Mrs. Dash, or canteloupe and one packet of sweetener makes it delicious and satisfying (of my sweet tooth!) ( : 
1 cup 2% cottage cheese, a little peach mango juice, and a half a banana sliced.
Think I used to like cottage cheese in cantaloupe.  Haven't had cottage cheese at all in a long time though.
robinsue,

try it again!!! ( :

I have mushy texture issues--or did when I was a kid (hate canned peas, applesauce, lima beans, etc) I never get enough calcium/dairy--don't like milk, cheese is so high cal, etc, but in rediscovering cottage cheese of all things, I have a new weapon. ( : I really like it with canteloupe and a packet of sweetener as a dessert snack or tons of people gave savory suggestions like pepper or adding veggies, with celery like it's dip. The varieties are endless. ( :
I don't want ANYTHING on it or in it. No salt no pepper, no nothing. I love lite cottage cheese.
I like to mix mine with pineapple...
I'm surprised no one has said watermelon yet.  It's delicious.  plus watermelon is super good for you.
I just eat it by itself. A lot of people put there's with fruit, but I can't imagine it tasting to great.
so what is your fav brand? I like friendship non fat cottage cheese but it is really high in sodium.
Fat-free is my choice. I don't care for it with fruit, but when I'm at school I have it with my salads (I don't use dressing). I load it with black pepper and eat it with my veggies. De-lish!
Cottage cheese is magical, you can do anything with it, sweet or savory.  I use fat free.

Two favorite ways:  with a little sugar on top or on top of baked potato with salt and pepper.
I can't get into the fruit thing....

My favorite lately has been non-fat cottage cheese over a baked potato with salsa.  Yum!
I like mixing fat-free cottage cheese with my egg whites/egg beaters and tomato with a little ketchup or salsa for breakfast...salt and pepper too. I also like to mix it with Splenda and sometimes sugar-free jelly...I did this on vacation when we didn't have much for breakfast.
