What this number means: the average advertised sale price in grocery-store weekly ads across the Southeast, not the price at any one store, and not the everyday shelf price. Cottage cheese, 16 oz tub, per 16 oz tub; ads for the week of October 19, 2026.

Definition and sources
  • How it's averaged: each advertised price is weighted by the number of stores USDA reports running it. That store count is summed across qualifying ads, so a store running two qualifying ads may count twice.
  • USDA label: “COTTAGE CHEESE”.
  • Data week: ads for the week of October 19, 2026, published by USDA on October 30, 2026. USDA publishes these weekly, on Fridays; this site checks for new reports every 30 minutes.
  • Coverage: USDA-reported store count 1,195. History since 2014.
  • BLS comparison: we don’t show a closely matching BLS average-price series for this item.
  • Sources: USDA AMS “Weekly Grocery Store Dairy Feature Activity” (report 2995). How we check the data.
