  • Same casserole, different curd: 1% versus 9% cottage cheese changes the fat base of the whole dish.
  • The higher-calorie recipe layers on butter, cream and condensed milk — three calorie-dense fat-and-sugar additions in one recipe.
  • Even the fruit diverges: fresh berries add water and flavor, raisins are the same grapes with the water removed and the sugar concentrated four-fold.
