Well, the original was with Wizpride. But it seems to me that the Kaukana brand is one I've used before too. I don't remember the salt, but it's been a while since I used that brand. I'm sorry you had an "off" experience with this, because it's one of my stand-by recipes. I'm wondering if it was an off batch of the spread, or if that brand has changed their recipe for sharp spread. . . I would test it with another brand to be sure. But honestly, I've NEVER had the salty problem myself, and I've used this at many an event. Keep me posted, because I would hate for people not to use the recipe because of concerns over this issue. It's really a great appetizer spread and people have loved it wherever I've taken it. I'll tell you what, I'm going to write on my list right now to try this spread when I go grocery shopping next to check out the salt factor. I'm really interested in this. I love this recipe, and I want others to enjoy it too. Hi Betty Jean.

The resulting product was VERY salty! Did I use the wrong cheese spread or is it supposed to be like that?

Thanks for your question. Sorry it was vague. It's basically two parts of the sharp cheddar spread to one part cottage cheese. I guess I was keeping in my head the sizes of the containers. I always remember them just coming in large and small for the sharp cheddar and forgot about the fact there are different sized containers of cottage cheese. I usually use the smaller, not the giant ones. But the two to one ration trick will help you adapt this recipe to whatever sizes of product you find. Hi Megan! Thanks for your question.

How many ounces do you consider a "large" container of cheddar spread, and 1/2 of what size container of cottage cheese? Thanks! I’d love to make this.

And the Wispride cheese spread comes in a flat 12 oz tub and an upright 8oz tub. a 2-1 ratio would be the 8 oz cheese tub with 1/2 a container of the 8oz cottage cheese. The larger 12 oz cheese tub with 1/2 the 16 oz cottage cheese is a 1.5 - 1 ratio. What size container of cottage cheese? 8oz or 16oz?
