In Greek Yogurt

As this yogurt becomes more popular, it's availability and shelf space is expanding. This is great news for all you health conscious people out there! Not only is it lower in sugar compared to your everyday light yogurt but it is higher in protein too meaning you stay fuller longer. :-)

Some of my favorite brands include Fage 0% and Chobani. Both can be found in bulk at Costco for when you really fall in love with the stuff. But, if you have never tried it and are interested, the consistency and textured can be compared to that of sour cream. Most people I know who have not given greek yogurt a chance have told me it is because they don't think they could get over the thickness of it. I can tell you that after eating Greek yogurt, I will never go back to the light stuff. Below is a comparison of Yoplait Strawberry, Chobani Strawberry, and Fage.

Brand	Yoplait Strawberry	Chobani 0% Strawberry	Fage (Fe-yeh)  0%

Sugar	26g	19g	7g
Fiber	N/A	.9g	0g

 If strawberry isn't your thing, Chobani also comes in Apple, Black Cherry, Blood Orange, Raspberry, Pomegranate, Passion Fruit, Plain, Honey, Blueberry, Lemon, Pineapple, Mango, Strawberry Banana, Peach and Vanilla. I have tried all of these and can tell you first hand they are delicious. Experiment them alone or topped with fresh fruit, nuts, jam, or mix with cereal.
