I don't think it has anything to do with keeping longer.  The liquid
seems to remain somewhat more distributed, rather than move to the
top of the cottage cheese.   I do the same with peanut butter...Smucker's
as bought from the groc will have a thick layer of oil on top.  I mix
it up once, then turn over after using to (hopefully) keep the oil
more distributed.

Yes, I've heard of it too... but I've never seen an explanation either.
ANyone out there know why?

Read the comic strip "Sally Forth" from last Thursday or Friday (Sat?)
for an explanation of the "upsidedown cottage cheese" phenomon.
