Wayne is picky and will not eat cottage cheese. Any suggestions on what else I can use???

haha well... I don't eat cottage cheese either - I would say up the shredded cheese amount and maybe try a cheese similar to cottage cheese... like ricotta cheese. A trick I use is blending up the cottage cheese w/ a little milk until it's smooth - I bet he'll never know!
