Guest guest Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 Hi there- do you have a Whole Foods in the Baltimore area? You should talk to the " cheese guy/girl " and ask them to order you some. That's what I did and they were happy to try it out.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 Aren’t there Giant Food grocery stores in Baltimore? I get DCCC at Giant in Virginia. They carry it in the dairy case, right next to Velveeta, of all things. If you ask one of the stocking clerks for it, don’t ask for dry curd cottage cheese because they don’t know the product by that name. Instead ask for Friendship Farmer cheese. I think there is a picture of the label in our files area, so you could print that off to show to the clerk. Are there any Wegmans in Baltimore. They also carry it. I don’t think your plan to microwave and drain cottage cheese will work. If you can’t find DCCC, you are better off to make yogurt, then drain it really well until it is the consistency of DCCC and use that for any baking you may want to do.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 I must have the worst Whole Foods on the planet. I asked and asked, multiple times, for a special order of DCCC. Everyone said they would call me when it came in. Never got a call. I called to check. All clerks said they had ordered it, but it wasn’t delivered. How can this be a problem only at my store? I keep seeing posts on this list about getting DCCC special ordered from Whole Foods, no problems. Well, the last time I was in WF I noticed they are stocking DCCC, but I didn’t buy any since I have found other sources.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 I did speak to a manager after the fourth time of trying to special order the DCCC. She was very nice, but in the end she was not able to deliver the special order as I have seen many others on this list do. I was surprised because WF has a reputation for excellent customer service. I gave up. I shop there once in a while if I really, really need something, but now that I have found other sources of DCCC they are missing out on my business for that as well as any other items I might pick up there while getting the DCCC.

My suggestion is that you put this down in a letter and mail it to corporate headquarters. They can't fix what they don't know about. Heck, I called the manager of a burger place we go to regularly when a meal was royally screwed up. My primary object was just to express by lack of appreciation and to let him know so that he could attempt to fix it, since most people do like you did: vote with their feet. He thanked me, and said he was sending me a token of appreciation. To my shock, what arrived was a $55.00 gift certificate with the wish that we redo our meal. THis one was MUCH more up to the standards of the restaurant. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Babette the Foundling Beagle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 No Fresh Market near me, but that looks like a nice store. I am in Northern Virginia, so I can get DCCC at Giant Food, Wegmans or WF. In some ways Wegmans is giving WF a run for their money. They are an upscale grocery store, but not as pricy as WF.

Just a note for anyone who has to travel to get dry curd cottage cheese -- the stuff freezes really well, particularly if you are going to be using it in baking. I buy a couple of cases at a time and toss it in the freezer.

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 I get the Friendship Farm farmer’s cheese at Giant. I buy it almost every week at the Beacon Mall (Rt. #1 south of andria) location. It is right next to the Velveeta. I have also seen it at the andria Commons (Duke St. in andria) store, too. One time I got Friendship Farm farmer’s cheese at the Wegmans in Woodbridge. I had to go searching for it, but the store clerk was able to help me find what I needed. It was in the cheese section, and it was in a huge package which I divided into smaller sizes for freezing. My friend, whose son was on SCD, told me she gets her DCCC (Friendship farmer’s cheese) at the Wegmans in Fairfax. It is on Monument Drive in Fairfax. From the map, it looks like it is right off Lee Hwy (Rt 29) near Fair Oaks.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 New member here; hope I'm not saying something obvious. I love in polis, and found DCCC at Whole Foods as Farmer Cheese, right beside the Marscapone. Then I went to the cheese people at my Amish market, and the owner ordered 5 pounds for me for $20.00. He says it freezes well. The Amish market also sells a " Farmer Cheese " that's not dry curd, so if you ask at a cheese store, make sure you're talking about the same thing.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 DCCC is supposed to have 0 carbs so it's not legal. Maybe you could ask the store you got it at to get the Friendship Farmer's brand. There is a label you can use to bring to the store in the group files. Misty Kimble CD - no meds SCD - Jan 2008 My other question is the cheese mentioned legal in the book can we buy them from safeway and what to look on the ingredients list and i saw dry curd cottage cheese its a Lucerne brand 0.4% M.F. dry curd cottage cheese ingredients: skim milk, bacterial culture, microbial enzyme > carbohydrate 2g 1% > is it legal. > Thank You > > Kuljit S Mann > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
