Research notes

Cottage cheese. Nutrition is from the Nutrition Facts panel on the brand's product page for the Organic 4% Milkfat 16 oz tub (4 servings per container): 1/2 cup (110 g) gives 100 kcal, 14 g protein, 2 g carbs, 2 g sugar and 4.5 g fat. The Amazon listing is this product (its gallery shows the Organic Whole Milk Classic 4% tub), but its label image is an older panel (110 kcal, 3 g carbs, 3 g sugar, same 14 g protein); the brand's current panel was used. Price rule: Amazon's current price, with no deal badge and no Typical price shown. It is sold through Whole Foods Market on Amazon, so the price may vary by store. Amazon has no 2% Good Culture tub in 16 oz; the brand's Organic 2% tub is 90 kcal, 14 g protein per 1/2 cup.
