I've been wanting to try greek yogurt for some time now and finally did ~ I loved it and being a vegetarian, the amount of protein greek yogurt contains is very appealing! Very thick and creamy and great tasting.

I've been loving Stoneyfield's whole milk yogurt.
I'm new at Greek. I started getting Fage's full-fat Greek yogurt, but when it wasn't on the shelf, I switched to The Greek Gods full-fat.
Whichever brand is available next time, I guess I'll try to wean myself down to 2% Greek.

Carrot juice is also very high in calcium.

Just tried the Chobani Yogurt for the first time and love it. Will not be buying any other kind from now on!!!!!!

Greek yogurt is definitely much more tasty than regular yogurt, in fact after trying Greek yogurt at my sister's recommendation I have to force myself to eat the regular kind as it taste really bland to me.

Sir: I purchased Greek yogurt and it was excellent.
However, keeping it in the refrig. for 10 days it developed a red film on top of the remaining amount.
What is the red impurity ?

I'm definitely sticking with regular yogurt, the fat grams really have me thinking I'm not going Greek. Plus the taste is a little tart for me. Great article, just what I was looking for to see how these two products measured up!

I just had my first Greek yogurt and am amazed at how tasty and satisfyingly filling it is as a snack. I am a flexitarian and 54 years old and exercise regularly all year running always towards a half or full marathon target; which means that I am always concerned that I am getting enough protein into my diet. I also have a treat strategy for those who might want something a little sweet. You add a little packet of a sweetner and some cinnamon and you have a fabulous sweet treat full of nutrients. With the Greek - its like eating ice cream - yum yum yum!
