About LOWFAT COTTAGE CHEESE
Simple Truth Organic Lowfat Cottage Cheese is a certified organic, reduced-fat cottage cheese from Kroger's premium organic sub-brand. The primary ingredient is organic cultured pasteurized nonfat milk, with organic milk and organic cream providing richness, and organic nonfat milk as a secondary dairy component. All dairy ingredients carry the USDA Organic certification.
The stabilizer system uses organic locust bean gum and carrageenan to maintain the texture of the curd in the whey base. Tri-calcium phosphate, citric acid, and microbial rennet (rather than animal rennet) assist with curd formation and acidification. Carbon dioxide is used to maintain freshness — a modified atmosphere packaging technique common in premium cottage cheese. Vitamin A palmitate is added for fortification, and the product contains live and active cultures (L. acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum) beyond the starter cultures.
At 80 calories per 113 gram serving with 12.39 grams of protein, 3.54 grams of carbohydrates, and 2.21 grams of fat, this is an excellent high-protein, relatively low-calorie dairy option. The only allergen is dairy (milk). No artificial additives, preservatives, or non-organic stabilizers are present. The microbial rennet makes this suitable for vegetarians who avoid animal-derived rennet. The live cultures provide probiotic benefits in addition to the fermented dairy profile.
