Isn't that the whole deal though, the fat gets drained in some process while using the natural raw milk.
I don't know, having never made cottage cheese. When you buy cottage cheese, you can choose between regular, low fat and no fat cottage cheese. Beware though, low fat and no fat cottage cheese is usually much higher in sodium.
We do like our foods flavorful. There are a couple of ways to accomplish this, one is adding salt, another is a higher fat content and lastly by adding a sweetener, such as sugar. Unfortunately, none of these are great choices. A lot of people think they are doing the right thing by cutting out fats when usually they are just replaced with sugars. You have to ask yourself, am I better off consuming corn syrup or a little fat. Coffee creamer is a good example of this. With half and half you get fats. While with Coffee Mate, you get corn syrup. Personally, I'd go for the fats. Really, ask yourself how much fat can there be in a tablespoon of half and half? When I am feeling decadent, I use whipping cream in my coffee. By the way, putting anything in your coffee makes it taste good, but also makes it less healthy. If you want to be a purist drink your coffee black.
