A 226 g (8 oz) container is approximately 1 cup, since it is close to the 225 g per cup reference figure.

Does low-fat cottage cheese weigh the same per cup?

It is close, but curd size and moisture content vary by brand and fat level. The 225 g per cup figure is a standard reference for typical large-curd cottage cheese, and works fine for most recipe conversions.

How many tablespoons are in 225 grams of cottage cheese?

About 16 tablespoons, since 225 grams is roughly 1 cup and there are 16 tablespoons in a cup.

Why not just use a generic cheese density for cottage cheese?

Cottage cheese holds more moisture between its curds than a firm or crumbly cheese, so a generic cheese-to-weight assumption tends to be inaccurate. Using the specific cottage cheese figure keeps the conversion close to what a kitchen scale actually shows.
