Breakstone's 2% Milkfat Cottage Cheese 8 × 4 oz: version 1
Saved 2026-09-13 11:04 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added **Breakstone's 2% Milkfat Cottage Cheese 8 × 4 oz** (GTIN 00021000123841) from the wanted list (old title "brkstn 8pk 2 cottage chs bjs"). **Identity.** Kraft Heinz's own My Food and Family page (Wayback, 2021-09-21) names this GTIN "Breakstone's 2% Milkfat Cottage Cheese 8 - 4 oz Cups". The USDA Branded Foods record fdc 2617648 (2023) has the same UPC as 2% lowfat small curd cottage cheese, 32 oz/907 g. The 2007 Barcodepedia archive also says 8PK, 32.00 OZ. The lookup's `conflict` was only a naming difference: both catalogues describe Breakstone's cottage cheese. OFF's 113 g is one cup. **Structure v2.** - Four observations: USDA 2023 label (default), maker page 2021, OFF contributor record (unconfirmed), Barcodepedia 2007. - Ingredients from the USDA list: skimmed milk, cream, tapioca starch, salt, vitamin A palmitate. - Nutrition panel per 100 g from USDA, marked normalized. - The maker's printed per-serving panel is kept with basis "1 serving", because no serving size was printed. **Relations.** - brand_owner_at_sale: Kraft Heinz Foods Company until 2021-11-29, per USDA and the Kraft Heinz sale release. - brand_owner_at_sale: Lactalis from 2021-11-29, per the Kraft Heinz release and OU Kosher. - gs1_prefix_owner: Kraft Heinz Foods Company, `sourced`, because its stub now states prefix 0021000. **Markets.** US: the maker listing (2021) and the USDA market country (2023). **Stubs.** Created ingredient/vitamin-a-palmitate. brand/breakstone-s, company/lactalis, company/kraft-heinz-foods-company, ingredient/skimmed-milk and ingredient/cream already existed (created by the other Breakstone's agent) and are reused. **Unresolved (in Research gaps).** - The OFF ingredient list (whey, modified food starch, gums, D3) disagrees with USDA and has no photo. - The maker's 2021 panel disagrees with USDA 2023 on protein and carbohydrate. - Current availability is unknown: the BJ's listings returned 403. - No manufacturing plant is sourced. - No licensed photo exists.. Current is v2.

## Research gaps <!--research_gaps-->
| observation | domain | state | detail | source |
| ----------- | ------------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | -------------- |
| | markets | stale | The newest sourced evidence is the 2023 USDA record. BJ's Wholesale Club listings for an 8-pack of 4 oz cups appeared in web search, but both the server and our own fetch got HTTP 403, so current availability and price are unconfirmed | ^usda |
| off-record | ingredients | disputed | Open Food Facts' typed list (whey, modified food starch, calcium phosphate, gums, natural flavor, vitamin D3) differs from USDA's 2023 list; no photo exists to settle which label, if either, belongs to this barcode | ^off |
| mff-2021 | nutrition | disputed | The maker's 2021 per-serving panel (10 g protein, 7 g carbohydrate) does not match USDA's 2023 per-100 g values (11.5 g protein, 5.31 g carbohydrate); probably a label revision, change date unknown | ^mff-2021 |
| | relationships | unknown | No source names the plant that makes this article; Lactalis took over Kraft Heinz's Walton, NY plant in the 2021 deal, but nothing ties this barcode to it | ^dairyreporter |
| | images | unknown | No licensed photo found; Open Food Facts has no photos for this barcode | ^off |
| | identity | unknown | Whether the 8-cup pack is still made is not sourced; status and last_seen left blank | |
