After all low carb includes cheeses and that is what cottage cheese is, a form of cheese.
I hope you find your answer.

Cheese
You can consume three to four ounces daily of the following full-fat, firm, soft and semisoft aged cheeses*, including:

cheddar
cow, sheep and goat cheese
cream cheese
Gouda
mozzarella
Roquefort and other blue cheeses
Swiss

Note that cottage cheese, farmer’s cheese and other fresh cheeses are not permitted during Induction.

Hope this answers any questions,
