Cheese, creamed cottage

Australian produced creamed cottage cheese. Prepared by curdling, salting, draining and washing cows milk to produce an unripened, white curd cheese.

Proximates (except ash), vitamins (except ACAR, CRYP and vitamin C), Cu and Mg were derived from a composite sample of 2 varieties of cottage cheese (Dairy Farmers and Home Brand) from Australia, purchased from 2 outlets in Sydney in 1988/89 by AGAL. These nutrients were also determined for Australian creamed cottage cheese as reported by the ADC (1999). Carbohydrates expressed as a sum total in the ADC sample. Ash, ACAR, CRYP and vitamin C determined in the AGAL sample only. Fatty acids, I, Se, Cr, Ni, Na, K, Fe, Mn and P were determined in 6 samples collected in WA, QLD and Vic in November 2004 (22nd ATDS). Organic acids were imputed from tasty cheese.
