Dragon fruit doesn’t have much flavor despite the.vibrant color so I’m not surprised it didn’t have a ✨transformative✨ flavor for you. It was probably almost the same taste as just blending cottage cheese lol… i would suggest try adding some more complex flavor profiles such as bananas, berries, your favorite protein powder flavor, peanut butter, nuts, dates, etc
Some vanilla would be good to add as well. Strawberries, especially frozen are naturally sweet, so add some honey or syrup, w some vanilla would be much better if you wanted a pink color.
Exactly, why the fk she would think that adding fkng dragonfruit that taste like a cucumber but with kess flavor and "a little bit of honey" was gon make a good flavor, she out nothing in there, that was dumb as fk, she basically froze and mushed cottage cheese, makes me mad when ppl be this dumb lol
Y’all please don’t be discouraged. It tastes as good as you make it. She chose the blandest fruit and didn’t even use any sweetener or flavour enhancers like protein powder or vanilla extract. Of course it’s gonna stay tasting like cottage cheese…
Adding in honey and vanilla extract really makes it so much like ice cream it's definitely more icy than creamy tho than regular ice cream but it tasted really good
@@helili maybe it’s the way she edited the video but it looked like there was barely any honey in it. Idk, my stomach always turned at the thought of cottage cheese but using it to make ice cream and sauces has made me love and appreciate it
If you don’t already like cottage cheese, this ain’t for you 😂 I added banana, pb powder, and chocolate chips ( and sugar, of course lol) it’s divine. I used full fat cottage cheese too, so it’s not as rock solid lol, but I just let it sit out a bit.
@@christaelf.1062 looool sure. then why is it salty??? you ever made cttage cheese at home? its super easy you just need to spoil milk and its never salty! Ask any italian they will tell you cottage cheese is naturaly sweet like mik . its never salty. but ive been the the US and tried a weird version of cottage cheese you eat that has little lumps in it ???? lol. thats no cottage cheese. cottage cheese aka Ricotta should look like a paste. no lumps or curdles. look it up;) and go buy a non salty version from an italian brand like Vale Verde.
@@ghostt1651 ahhh I gotcha 👍 Yeah, in US they're separate things. I've never had non salty cottage cheese. I wonder if this would be good with ricotta instead.
@@christaelf.1062 thats what ive been wondering too! But im sure u can find ricotta in the US! Ive seen Valle Verde ricotta when I was there.. hope you find it.
I am so glad that someone finally stated that dragon fruit does not have much flavor. I say it doesn't have any flavor. I am always confused when people make it seem like it is the best tasting thing ever.
Maybe it depends on the color of the one you get and where you get it? I love pitaya the bright pink one, if you get it in a tropical country it tastes so different. All the tropical fruits they sell in the U.S. taste really bland compared to when you eat it there.
Bro she used an entire container of cottage cheese but barely any honey chose one of the most bland fruits not even putting a good amount then doesn’t use vanilla extract and wonders why it doesn’t taste good girly please don’t do this to yourself and try to get some more flavors in there other than just blended cottage cheese with some pink coloring😭😭
Yes, thank you! Like use pineapple or peaches. Add in some almond extract or toasted almonds…. something that usually goes good with cottage cheese. I think she did this for comments. Anyone with a little food sense should’ve know that combo she used would be yuck!
Next time use frozen strawberries. Dragonfruit doesn’t have any sweetness or flavor. I use 113g cottage cheese, 3oz fresh frozen strawberries, 2 pkts stevia, 1 tbs Jell-O cheesecake powder, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and a splash of unsalted almond milk. Topped it w 14g pecan halves. It literally tasted like ice cream to me! Better even. WAY better macros. AMAZING! Yum!!
Girl - you have to add sweeteners and spices. Dragon fruit and cottage cheese alone isn’t gonna do it. I put mine together with monk fruit, honey, and tons of different sweet / warming spices. It’s delish
I appreciate an Honest reaction, not a staged one! And like was said in another comment, just get a low-calorie ice cream or only eat real ice cream once in a while. Thank you for being real!
@@TheGlitchingFox she added dragon fruit. Dragon fruit already got little to no flavour. So it makes sense it tastes mostly like cheese. No vanilla or nothing. Just honey.. expected it to be bad.
I think it's the type of cottage cheese you've used which made it salty. I had a similar thing happened to me at first and then I tried another brand which was sweeter (like milk) and it came out really good. Perfect for kids
But salt is supposed to stop the sour flavor. If no salt is used, then it's sour because any fermented product tastes sour, and cottage cheese is fermented.
I think it also depends on the type of cottage cheese! Some have no salt at all and taste very bland (which makes for a great dessert ingredient) and some are salty and taste great in savory dishes. I eat a dry curd cottage cheese which is very bland so when mixed with honey, it tastes creamy and sweet.
@@kristina_adorned no its not!! the cheap version maybe but good ricotta or cottage cheese with no added salt is sweet on its own you dint even need to add honey. so please . get your facts straight. youre being ridiculous 😅
I’ve seen these whipped cottage cheese things, and they always add sweetener. The ones that I saw he was using a monk fruit sweetener, I haven’t tried it but it’s supposed to be a good high protein snack. Oh, and the ones that I saw they didn’t freeze it.
I already make my own cottage cheese, so I tried the cottage cheese "ice cream" on my PSMF days. I blend some cottage cheese (only curds, no liquid) with scrambled/cooled egg whites, cocoa powder, vanilla, sweetener, and just enough almond milk to blend until smooth. Then I put it in my ice cream maker and it turns out great.
What do the scrambled egg whites contribute? Do they do something for the texture, or is it for the added protein and ither nutrients? Do you scramble them in oil?
It's not gross at all, she did it all wrong, cream cheese is salty as fk and cheesecakes are good as hell, there's cheese cake, cream cheese frosting, and other desserts that are incredibly delicious, she fked it up, that was dumb as hell, dragron fruit and "a little bit of honey"..? Basically a cucumber and enough honey for a cheerio, how is that gonna make it taste good exactly..? Dumba$$
That's what I was thinking too... no way this would work with regular sodium cottage cheese but low sodium sends like it could make sense with the right sweeteners/flavorings.
Try this.. chocolate whey protein powder (one that you like), one spoonful of black cocoa, and a little hot sauce .. freeze 12 hours.. smoothie setting plus one re-spin and it can be excellent provided that you like the flavor of the protein powder you’ve using. Not all protein powders are created equal.
Agree. I tried making it with banana and strawberries, added agave and sugar. It tasted like cottage cheese with fruit. Not like ice cream. It was salty and a bit sour, like cream cheese. Making nice cream taste more like ice cream IMHO.
That's not honesty. She said she was sceptical and then she went on to make a truly bland ice cream to prove her point. I did a chocolate one with cocoa powder, sweetener and cottage cheese. It wasn't the best ice cream I've ever tasted but it wasn't bad at all. And if you don't want a ton of carbs, it's great, unless you sweeten it with honey which is basically sugar.
I’ve made it and mine wasn’t salty, that was probably the brand you used. I also like mine with fruit that has more flavor like frozen blueberries and strawberries, with a splash of vanilla. It’s definitely not ice cream but I liked it ❤
I get that this isn’t everyone’s thing but if you like cottage cheese it’s an incredible breakfast. I just did 1/3 banana+vanilla+raspberries blended with 1 cup cottage cheese and it literally was so good 🤤
You have to use good flavorings and plenty of sweetener or else of course it's going to taste bad. Dragonflies has no flavor and honey isn't a good ice cream flavor or sweetener. Do you ever see those flavors in the store? No. Vanilla, chocolate, or peanut butter would have been solid choices, not this nonsense.
Maybe your cottage cheese was going bad, because I use cottage cheese in my mango mousse with some Greek yogurt and I added coconut sugar, it came Out Delicious and Even my mom who's a Peaky Eater Liked it, she wanted to steal more when I made it to share with my coworkers 😅 so yeah it was that good and even my coworkers wanted seconds but I only made 19 cups of mango mousse to go Around so now I'm going to double my recipe for next time 😋
Might be the type of cottage cheese you used? I used the no name kind lol with mixed frozen berries and hazelnut sugar free syrup (it was all I had that was sugar free but it didn't taste as gross as I thought it would together). Just tasted like berry cheesecake tbh but by the final bites, I was sort of over it. I think I'll just eat cottage cheese as is if I want the protein tbh 😅 but diluting it with milk is a good idea! My cottage cheese is 0% fat so I think that's probably why it turned so icy, but maybe even adding just a splash of heavy cream could help? Idk man.
Transparency? She didn't even make it right. It's not a good representation of what you can do with this machine. She doesn't know what she's doing. I've made a lot of great ice cream and without a lot of sugar. I've never used dragonfly whatever the hell that is. She's probably mad because they didn't give her a free machine. She had to buy it😂😂😂
I’ve been making this for a while, and it can actually be amazing! I use cottage cheese, vanilla protein powder, and strawberries! It tastes like strawberry cheesecake! Give it another go!
Strangely, I want to try it now. But with some flavor. I knew she wasn’t gonna like it with dragon fruit and a little honey. I think a little pure maple syrup would taste good. Thank you for being REAL though! Keep Shining!! 🌷
Dragon fruit, when blended rather finely, will taste awful no matter if you add cottage cheese. It's the smell from the seeds broken down to bits. Try making cottage cheese ice cream with other fruits.
For mine, at first I just used fresh berries and 1 tbsp of honey. Tasted salty so I added 3 extra tbsp of honey and some vanilla extract WITH graham crackers. At that point it actually tasted worth wild, I feel like using just dragon fruit (which is almost flavorless) and not much honey with nothing else is obviously gonna leave you with a salty texture (And if you dont wanna risk the saltiness, no salt versions exist) 😅
To be fair you used a fruit that has no flavor to “flavor” it and you added about half a teaspoon of honey. You’re supposed to put actually flavorful fruit or chocolate or vanilla or something in it and sugar.
I made chocolate strawberry cottage cheese ice cream and it was legit the best ice cream I've ever had. But you've got to treat it like ice cream. Add sugar. Add vanilla. It's soo good
I agree that something is off....but still I don't see anybody talking about it. For me it was that mine always came out entirely too icy like it never scooped like a creamy soft serve like theirs does, even if I let it sit out of the freezer for a little while it was just too watery/icey! I don't know if it's because of putting too much fruit but I def didn't use a lot. Idk man. But it bugs me when I see everybody jump cut to a super soft serve kind of texture when in reality when you pull it out of the freezer it's straight up like Frozen ice and has a Icey slushy texture even once it starts to melt it just melted into chunks of slush for me lol. These people might be adding milk or adding something to make it softer I don't know what but mine has never been that soft-serve consistency but it has been sweet and not salty tho! 😆
Could it be maybe that you used your ice cream maker? I noticed other content creators just take the blended mixture and put it straight in the fridge. Maybe churning it in the ice cream maker makes it not so lovely in texture? Just a thought.
Sigh… don’t listen to her. It’s delicious and good for you. Just use strawberries or a different fruit that has more flavor. I use strawberries and monk fruit sweetener instead of honey. It was great.
Nah... it's not the internet that lies... you took a great idea and trashed it with your recipe.. maybe try a version that actually adds flavor and you will think differently.
I am so glad I watched your video because that’s the first thing I felt when I heard cottage cheese ice cream. The expression on your face decided I will not be trying this.
The dragonfruit is where you fucked up 😂. I put in frozen strawberries with some sugar and some heavy cream and a squeeze of lemon( not healthy but it was good ) tasted like cheesecake!
It’s cause you guys get disgusting cottage cheese. Cottage cheese in Europe is delicious and is not salty at all. It’s creamy and tastes like a frozen cheese cake. She’s using the salty “synthetic” cottage cheese, the moment I saw the package I thought what on earth are you doing girl!!! 🙈 she can’t possibly be that dumb cmon. It’s common sense mixing salty plastic cottage cheese will taste disgusting 🤢
Oh man don't skip trying bc of her review. i made it with chocolate protein powder and added sweetener(you could use honey or maple syrup... but a larger amount than she did for a whole tub of cottage cheese) it was absolutely delicious
You’re supposed to add bananas because it makes it sweet and creamy. You added dragon fruit which already barley has flavor. Then you added the smallest bit of honey. On top of all that you used more than half of the container of cottage cheese. What did you expect?
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HONEST REVIEW..... it was so pretty but i am glad you told us just with your face it was a no go..... i like cottage cheese plain or with fruit i have always loved cottage cheese wo was so excited for al these viral recipes BUT NOPE... blended cottage cheese not for me... i stick to just eating it the old fashioned way....😊😊😊
Try it with farmers cheese which had no added salt! Also I used real vanilla which is made from bourbon. My theory is that it will not freeze as much. I used date syrup and allulose for sweetener because I didn’t want the sugar. I don’t have a total answer yet as I put it in the freezer. I will try later and let you know…
I’ve tried this and i really enjoyed it, its not the same as ice cream but I thought it was tasty. I blended the cottage cheese with vanilla,honey and frozen strawberries and i then mixed in strawberry pieces and it was 🍓😍
I suggest you to use a very ripe flavourful fruits such as mangos, bananas, pineapples etc. Dragon fruit is pretty bland on its own, leave alone trying to use it to flavour something else. I made mine using mango & strawberry, vanilla pod along with honey and maple syrup. I also added extra almond and peacan for the crunch. It was very delicious. ☺️
When I buy c.cheese I have to rinse curds to get rid of excess salt . They say touse more sugar than you think you need to keep it from becoming icey. Try it again! And thank you for being honest 😊
Yes! I just discovered the same thing. Cottage cheese is good other ways but I have to buy the unsalted kind… it’s so salty. And ur right…definitely not ice cream

Thanks for the honest review, I knew something was off with this trend. 😂🤣🤣
I agree that something is off....but still I don't see anybody talking about it.
For me it was that mine always came out entirely too icy like it never scooped like a creamy soft serve like theirs does, even if I let it sit out of the freezer for a little while it was just too watery/icey! I don't know if it's because of putting too much fruit but I def didn't use a lot. Idk man. But it bugs me when I see everybody jump cut to a super soft serve kind of texture when in reality when you pull it out of the freezer it's straight up like Frozen ice and has a Icey slushy texture even once it starts to melt it just melted into chunks of slush for me lol. These people might be adding milk or adding something to make it softer I don't know what but mine has never been that soft-serve consistency but it has been sweet and not salty tho! 😆
Could it be maybe that you used your ice cream maker? I noticed other content creators just take the blended mixture and put it straight in the fridge. Maybe churning it in the ice cream maker makes it not so lovely in texture? Just a thought.
Sigh… don’t listen to her. It’s delicious and good for you. Just use strawberries or a different fruit that has more flavor. I use strawberries and monk fruit sweetener instead of honey. It was great.
I saw the recipes where they added condensed milk instead of regular milk, I’m wondering how much that would adjust the flavors?
I'm surprised at salty.
Normally cottage cheese you need to add the salt for it to be salty😂
Yeah. Normally its like the only thing at home thats not salty
Thank you for being honest! 👏 ❤
Nah... it's not the internet that lies... you took a great idea and trashed it with your recipe.. maybe try a version that actually adds flavor and you will think differently.
I am so glad I watched your video because that’s the first thing I felt when I heard cottage cheese ice cream. The expression on your face decided I will not be trying this.
it’s the dragonfruit…it has no flavor….
agreed......I even added sweetener and Hershey Cocoa Powder....I can't believe I wasted my ingredients...
Not enough sweetness
Thanks for the honesty.
So you used something that basically has no flavor to flavor it. Of course it isn't going to taste good.
Yeah..I add chiles or salsa to cottage cheese. Any Veggies but veggies only. But you're a gem for testing for us!
The dragonfruit is where you fucked up 😂. I put in frozen strawberries with some sugar and some heavy cream and a squeeze of lemon( not healthy but it was good ) tasted like cheesecake!
I’m so glad your finally calling this out. It’s cool if some people like it, but I tried it and hated it. Way too overrated . To each their own.
It’s cause you guys get disgusting cottage cheese. Cottage cheese in Europe is delicious and is not salty at all. It’s creamy and tastes like a frozen cheese cake. She’s using the salty “synthetic” cottage cheese, the moment I saw the package I thought what on earth are you doing girl!!! 🙈 she can’t possibly be that dumb cmon. It’s common sense mixing salty plastic cottage cheese will taste disgusting 🤢
Just take a can of coconut milk and blend it with your favourite frozen fruit. Healthiest ice cream ever. You're welcome
Oh I'm gonna try this! Dairy free so it's for me! 😂
I’m SO glad you did this honest review, I’ve been very skeptical about trying this trend….now I definitely won’t lol thank you 😊
Oh man don't skip trying bc of her review. i made it with chocolate protein powder and added sweetener(you could use honey or maple syrup... but a larger amount than she did for a whole tub of cottage cheese) it was absolutely delicious
You’re supposed to add bananas because it makes it sweet and creamy. You added dragon fruit which already barley has flavor. Then you added the smallest bit of honey. On top of all that you used more than half of the container of cottage cheese. What did you expect?
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HONEST REVIEW..... it was so pretty but i am glad you told us just with your face it was a no go..... i like cottage cheese plain or with fruit i have always loved cottage cheese wo was so excited for al these viral recipes BUT NOPE... blended cottage cheese not for me... i stick to just eating it the old fashioned way....😊😊😊
You didn’t add enough honey
I added almost 1/3 cup
shoulda also added stevia or splenda etc.
I happen to love ❤️ cottage cheese!! I’m gonna follow the advice in the comments to make it more flavorful. Thanks for the post
Thank you for the honesty!
I appreciate your honesty!!
You have to sweeten it i use monk fruit and it’s really good especially cocoa powder vanilla added to it.
Try it with farmers cheese which had no added salt! Also I used real vanilla which is made from bourbon. My theory is that it will not freeze as much. I used date syrup and allulose for sweetener because I didn’t want the sugar. I don’t have a total answer yet as I put it in the freezer. I will try later and let you know…
Should’ve done a sweeter fruit like strawberries or raspberries those are both good with cottage cheese even peaches
Chocolate peanut butter is a popular flavor choice, maybe partly because the presence of peanut butter makes saltiness natural.
I’ve tried this and i really enjoyed it, its not the same as ice cream but I thought it was tasty. I blended the cottage cheese with vanilla,honey and frozen strawberries and i then mixed in strawberry pieces and it was 🍓😍
We did frozen strawberries and choc chips. About a 1/4 cup of powdered monk fruit sugar. It waa a amazing!
You need to add vanilla extract to cut the salty taste. It's absolutely delicious! I made peanut butter using PB powder.
I would use more sweetener, add vanilla protein powder…and a ton of fruits!!! Berries, banana or peaches, and crushed nuts for some crunch.
Nah. Nothings gonna help. She’s using a salty synthetic cottage cheese 😂😂😂 brain upgrade may help, berries won’t fix the situation 😂
I suggest you to use a very ripe flavourful fruits such as mangos, bananas, pineapples etc. Dragon fruit is pretty bland on its own, leave alone trying to use it to flavour something else.
I made mine using mango & strawberry, vanilla pod along with honey and maple syrup. I also added extra almond and peacan for the crunch. It was very delicious. ☺️
When I buy c.cheese I have to rinse curds to get rid of excess salt . They say touse more sugar than you think you need to keep it from becoming icey. Try it again! And thank you for being honest 😊
Yes! I just discovered the same thing. Cottage cheese is good other ways but I have to buy the unsalted kind… it’s so salty. And ur right…definitely not ice cream
Thank you for being honest😊
