Back in 2010 I asked Dr. Peat: "I think I read were you do not recommend eating yogurt; is that correct? Are you against any kind of probiotics?" and he replied,
"In quantities of an ounce or so, for flavoring, it's o.k., but the lactic acid content isn't good if you are using yogurt as a major source of your protein and calcium. Cottage cheese, that is, milk curds with salt, is very good, if you can find it without additives, but traditional cottage cheese was almost fat-free, so when they make it with whole milk you should watch for other innovations that might not be beneficial."
I'd prefer cottage cheese but can't find a fat free one. Cottage cheese taste pretty sour to me just like yogurt though, I wonder why that is. Is ricotta just as good as cottage cheese? Maybe I can find a good fat free ricotta ...haven't looked.
