I've tried them all and found stoneyfield and brookeshires brands taste the best. What's your favorite type

    Plain greek yogurt tastes like *kitten* to be honest, the vanilla brands arent that high in sugar and taste 10000% better. Especially mixing in a spoonful of almond butter or a scoop of protein powder

    There is a regional company (Wisconsin and northern Illinois) called Roundy's that makes a good plain Greek yogurt.

    I prefer brands like Siggi's (which is actually skyr) that use lacto. helveticus as one of their cultures. It leaves a creamy, not too acidic flavor on the tongue, and as a plain yogurt, it's lovely.

    I make my own Greek yogurt from organic whole milk, drain the whey, very rich and creamy, no additives. Not hard at all.

    The best tasting to me is either homemade or homemade purchased (I buy from a Greek deli 2 hours away).

    +1 more. I add a little honey to mine and it's heavenly and way cheaper in the long run than buying their little yogurt and honey cups, which are also amazing.

    I'm all for the Fage as well. I just prefer the 0% because the 2% doesn't do much to help me meet my fat macro so I might as well eat more of the 0%. No other brand comes close when it comes to texture.

    I like Fage 2%, add a little sugar, chopped walnuts, & frozen blueberries. Eat right away & it is almost like ice cream!

    They all taste the same to me... plain is plain! Fewer ingredients the better. I usually get dannon.

    Oikos 2% or Liberte i think does a nice plain greek yogurt. I have tasted differences between brands so I stick to these two.

    The whole fat version of this is the answer. Reminds me of ice cream.

    Don't fear dietary fat. It's one of the worst mistakes you could make from a Nutrition standpoint, too.

    I don't fear fat. I just prefer it in other foods besides yogurt. (Cheese or ribeye, for example.) If I enjoyed full fat yogurt substantially more than low fat I'd eat it, but I don't.

    I'm in the Fage group (2%). I use it as a substitute in any recipe calling for sour cream or mayo. It is pretty much an obsession. When I first started eating it I added honey , but I now love the tart flavor with just berries or homemade granola.

    If you ever visit Cyprus, try the yogurt there and you'll realize you've been living a yogurt lie.
    Even the "Greek style" yogurt in Cyprus pales in comparison.

    Cypriots have 2 staples on their kitchen table for every single meal: Yogurt and a fresh salad. If those 2 things are not on the table, you are eating with imposters... ;)

    Liberte plain 2%, Liberte greek 2% or if you want to be indulgent, their 9% plain is amazing. I find that once you get used to plain yogurt, it tastes so much better than any of the sweetened/fruit flavoured yogurts.

    The closest yogurt I've found to what you're talking about is White Mountain Bulgarian yogurt. It very close to what my grandmother used to make (I'm part Lebanese).

    The way they eat is probably why they live to be 90+ :smile:

    I know it's not a plain yogurt, but I've started eating "20g" Yogurt by Arla (in the Uk). 20g of protein at 140 cals. Three flavours. Tastes pretty good.
