[@insanemakaioshin]

Have you tried Milk substitutes, like Soy milk, Coconut milk, Almond milk, etc.? Other ideas: Coconut Cheese, Soy Cheese, Almond Ice cream, Soy Ice cream, Coconut Butter, Almond Butter, condensed Coconut milk, etc.

[@danryan632]

I tried rems cottage cheese with strawberries not good at all, EWWWW no offense to rem but it was not good

[@Exercise4CheatMeals]

@@insanemakaioshin I have tried almond milk, but dont see the utility in trying other substitutes when milk works perfectly on its own or in combination with almond milk. If for some reason I didn't drink milk, it would be worth trying these other ones out, but I don't think I would ever go that far in experimentation since the tried and true milk from the utters works like a charm and I can guzzle it by the gallon.

Greek yogurt, almost exactly the same micro and macros, better texture, and not as salty and sour.

[@josephroa4475]

Thanks for the shoutout first off. Should have posted my exact base so it was a better comparison. 270ish milk of choice, 113g cottage cheese, scoop of protein powder, 20g sweetener and .5-1g gum. Depending on recipe you can also add skinny syrup. Straight up cottage cheese without anything else yeah would be nasty.

[@Exercise4CheatMeals]

Hey brother! Sorry for not using the exact recipe, but almost all of the viral ones use 100% cottage cheese. So 25/75 should've been fine. It was still not good imo. Id rather just use that extra 113g of cottage cheese, have one less ingredient and just use milk.

The second test was 100g cottage cheese Michael...

[@josephroa4475]

@@Exercise4CheatMeals no worries man. That's on me for not giving you the more detailed information. I have tried the TikTok ones and RJ's and yeah frozen cottage cheese is nothing like real ice cream. It's basically almost putting lipstick on pig.

[@HungoverSquirel]

My favorite way to use cottage cheese is to mix two servings of low fat cottage cheese with half a serving of protein powder, half a serving of sugar free cheesecake flavored jello mix, cinnamon, and add a small amount of graham cracker crumbs. This tastes EXACTLY like cheesecake, loaded with protein, and is extremely diet friendly in terms of caloric density.

[@makeupchick9544]

How much is a "serving" of each of these things......?

[@HungoverSquirel]

[@JuanLovesProtein]

All due respect, it is not just cottage cheese in a vacuum…the way you implemented sounds nasty and I love cottage cheese. Your comparison is not apples to apples to the right way to use it in a low cal protein ice cream, for example: 1 scoop protein powder, 100g cottage cheese, 1/4 tsp guar gum (better than xantham for cold foods), 8-11 fl oz unsweetened nut milk to the fill line (or any milk that fits your macros), sweetener to taste, plus flavors. Done right, cottage cheese is a protein ice cream game changer. Better macros and safer than raw egg yolks, too.

[@bribradt3450]

I typically do like 150g of cottage cheese and 250g of 2 percent milk. I literally just put all the ingredients in a shaker cup then pour into the creami container. To me, cottage cheese is way more of a neutral flavor than greek yogurt.

[@andre9095]

When I use just a raw dog fairlife protein drink in the creami, I need to run it like 2-4 times on sorbet or Italian ice settings for it to be a good consistency, but it’s a great base. Pretzels, fruit, and mini chips for mix ins.

[@carwoman43]

Thanks for taking one for the team! I'll stick to mixing cottage cheese in my egg & egg whites in the morning. It's not bad there and the curds melt.

[@emmawilkins8896]

I have been enjoying making froyos. I enjoy tart froyo, but I also like using flavored fat free Greek yogurts if I want something sweet and flavored. Sometimes I add a little whole milk Greek yogurt to make it creamier.

[@arthurclayton2693]

There is a way to eliminate the sour flavor in all the yogurt or cottage cheese; add a base to neutralize the lactic acid that causes it. I've been using calcium hydroxide for Greek yogurt, about a 1/4 tsp per creami container. FYI, baking soda doesn't work because it releases CO2, which becomes carbonic acid, giving it a new sour taste.

[@danielyao1740]

Try making a milk shake out of cottage cheese. The mix / consistency / texture is much better. To me taste like surf city or Jamba Juice. Here the recipe I’ve used for years. 120 grams of cottage cheese 120 grams of nonfat Greek yogurt 60 grams of almond milk or 1% or 2% milk 40 grams ( 1 scoop ) vanilla protein powder 100 grams strawberry 🍓 60 grams ( half a banana 🍌) You can add some cashew / Raw oatmeal’s for better macros : lean bulk mode .

Enjoyed your comparison and the way you compared them without other variations. That said, there may be recipes using cottage cheese along with whey powder, etc. that you could enjoy. Or maybe not, since you hate the tartness in cottage cheese. We all have different tastes and preferences, of course. For example, I've tried many brands and types of stevia, but they all taste bitter to me.

[@michaelpatalano9884]

My guess to make it useable: blend it with almond milk to get rid of curds, and add way more sweetener

[@Exercise4CheatMeals]

Didnt add more sweetener, but even 1/4 CG was pretty bad lol

[@Chillahhh]

using almond milk and artifical sweetener is probably not the way to go when you want a tasty end product

The cottage cheese to milk to protein powder amounts are key. No sweetener is actually required if you use a good flavour addition (like cocoa)

[@LUKA_911]

@@Exercise4CheatMeals I'd go for a skim milk fresh cheese if you have those in the US. Here in Croatia they're pretty wide-spread and they're very similar to Greek yogurt flavor-wise and they even have slightly more protein

@@LUKA_911 Yo Luka! I think I have run my course with cheese in ice cream for a while.

Why use the salty cottage cheese use the regular one without curds.

[@maxzhao8331]

very interesting!

[@BaronVonScrub]

As an interesting thought, why not get a little chemistry-based with it? It sounds like it's mostly the sourness/acidity that is bothering you, right? Why not counteract it by blending a little bicarb in the recipe, and see how that goes? A little trial and error with pH strips to get a neutral mix, to learn the right ratio, then try it as before.

[@StreetHitzEnt]

[@Seraphina_Atley]

I use blended cottage cheese with flavored whey protein - I really think it lends the texture, but it needs some flavor assistance.

[@DeadInside200]

You said it at the end of the video, but I was thinking maybe with the milk and cottage cheese combo you need to work with the saltiness of the cottage cheese. Adding flavors to mask or work with it would make a lot of sense like caramel. Salted Caramel ice cream is awesome, but I haven't seen a good enough low calorie caramel recipe that makes it thick and rich. Sure you can buy the manufactured stuff, but it's so watery that it wouldn't stand up well in an ice cream setting mixed together.

[@roopejay]

Have you thought about experimenting with soy lecithin or other lecithins? I think lecithin in the yolk is the main binder so using for example soy lecithin could be safer and cheaper than using egg yolks. Haven't tried myself yet but soy lecithin is commonly used in store-bought ice creams and other products as a binding agent.

[@JohnCenaWarriorPrincess]

I've tried using soy and sunflower lecithin. They're a real pain in the ass to get to dissolve properly. And the result isn't as good as an egg yolk.

[@frankquinol]

@@JohnCenaWarriorPrincess do you know of any other substitutes for yolk? Maybe eggbeaters, cream cheese or oikos pro yogurt? I tried the egg yolk version and it came out great but it still worries me that it’s a raw egg. Thanks

also, try getting better quality cottage cheese from good daisy or good culture brand. cottage cheese doesn't naturally come with its own stabilizers like guar

[@rmonahan14]

Fairlife milk + egg beaters + protein powder (isopure unflavored if you wanna keep it neutral) + guar gum gives me the best textured base, topped off w/ vanilla extract + 0 cal sweetener+ salt of course🤘 Why r we messing around with cheese for more protein when there’s any kinda protein powder out there at your fingertips?

Obviously Pure Cane sweetner (o cal, not real pure cane sugar), whey etc. That and say UMP is incredible. As close to ice cream as I've gotten in last year and half or so since I've had the creami for still having protein and better macros lol. Also do with Red Velvet cake mix or Yellow Cake mix for birthday style, 20-30g is more than enough (microwaved to 160 first). My macros allow it and so killer. Especially Red Velvet one as I'll use UMP angel cake and 30g of reg cream cheese sweetened up than frozen to kinda cut into little blocks for mixin. And the Birthday Cake with yellow cake mix, and half a teaspoon of lorann fountain cake batter ooooohh man, worth the lil extra cals and sugar for that flavor and still around 15g protein serving (and about 170 cals), each pint split into 3. Whomever is doing 100% cottage cheese is a sociopath, serial killer in the making lol. But in small amounts it's perfect, huge difference between brands.

bro, i love your channel, love your recipes and so do my kids, but you did not follow the cottage cheese recipe. also.... you commented that you followed the viral video recipes.. they all got it wrong. Its not just cottage cheese and sweetener. You missing some milk, honey or maple syrup, a little sweetener, adding some fruits and other ingredients that add more flavor. Cottage cheese and Swift is not gonna cut it.

[@Exercise4CheatMeals]

Thanks brother! For conversational purposes, let's say I made it wrong. I don't get the hype when you can just use all milk and not have to try and mask the flavor of cottage cheese through the use of all these other ingredients. Milk, sweetener, and vanilla extract make a near perfect vanilla ice cream base. After all of my testing, I would bet a very large sum of money that I could make 10 peoples recipes to a T and they would still taste off to me. However, I can see utility in making something niche like Jenis Ice Cream does where they use goat cheese and mix it with peaches and biscuits. They use just enough to give it that tangy bite but the saltyness of the peach and biscuit compliment everything perfectly. In my opinion and through my experience, I just think cottage cheese isn't necessary in 98.9% of ice cream flavors and isn't worth the months of viral hype it has gotten.

[@CHADnFREUD]

I've come to find that cottage cheese fails miserably as ice cream in every way, except in certain "exotic" cheesecake recipes.

Nothing wrong about disagreeing. I stand by what I said. Telling people they’re “wrong” on something subjective when you didn’t even prepare it close to what the comment you featured suggested is laughable. You clearly did it wrong and are writing it off for whatever reason. Cheers have a great day
