Followup reply Re: Farmer Cheese in Montreal Canada

[Guest guest]

Hi again Bruce. I think I have figured out why you get gas from Western

Creamery pressed dry cottage cheese, and I don't. If your cottage cheese

lists 4 g carb/100 g, it's not the " pressed dry " kind, but just the

" pressed " kind. In other words, you bought the wrong type of Western

Creamery cottage cheese.

The two packages are similar in appearance, but all the " pressed dry "

packages I have checked and bought have 1 g carbs, not 4 g carbs.

You should ask for Western Creamery pressed dry cottage cheese where you

normally buy the cheese, and make sure you get the correct package. Here in

Toronto, I usually buy my cheese at a cheese specialty store, or at some

supermarkets such as Sobey's Urban Fresh. There will usually be a lot of

packages of pressed cottage cheese, and only a few packages of pressed dry

cottage cheese, side by side, in different sizes, and with or without salt.

Hope this helps.
