What is the fiber content of cottage cheese?

Unfortunately none, but cottage cheese is a great source of protein, about 14g per serving and makes for a good choice as a lowfat snack (the lowfat version).

How long can you refrigerate cheese?

The length of time a cheese can keep in your refrigerator will depend upon the packaging, previous handling and the type of cheese. Soft or fresh cheeses will not keep as long as aged and hard cheeses. Deli sliced cheese will be at their best only a few days. Unopened containers of commercially packaged cheeses should last through the date on the package. Once opened, all bets are off and it should probably be used within a week or two - the sooner, the better.

How long can you keep unopened instant coffee?

Coffee-Mate liquid will usually last 2-3 weeks after opening. If left unopened, it can be stored for several months in the fridge. You will know when the coffee mate has gone bad, because it will curdle, change color, or smell badly. You can usually tell when it is starting to go bad, well before this point because the creamer will not integrate with the coffee immediately, and will leave "rings" on top of the coffee until it is stirred in. However, it is still safe to consume at the "ring" stage. It can be stored even longer in the freezer, but this is not recommended as some separation of the product may occur after thawing.
