Someone awhile back posted about the Toasted Coconut Vanilla Yogurt and how it tastes like frosting/icing. So, I bought some--and it does! It was so delicious. I started buying other flavors--and they are all so good. I've never tried Greek Yogurt or even a version of Greek Yogurt before, and I love it. I like the consistency. Anyway, the flavor I'm having today is "Caramel Macchiato" and it tastes like a Jamocha shake from Arby's. I think I have died and gone to heaven!

Those are absolutey divine. but not ALL Greek Yogurts taste that good.0

I wish my grocer carried those flavors! They just have the normal strawberry, vanilla, blueberry etc. My fave from Dannon is Oikos key lime.0

Oh my - I MUST try the caramel macchiato flavor! I love the toasted coconut - def one of my favorites.0

How much sugar is in one serving of light and fit dannon yogurt?0

Hm, I've been eating the plain vanilla, and it's tolerable, but nothing to write home about. I must venture out and try different flavors (I love the cost effectiveness of the big tub).0

I prefer Chobani plain non fat Greek yogurt. No added anything in it. The only ingredients besides milk are the cultures. I'm not a fan of added "stuff" in my yogurt. Too much crap and added sugar. If I feel the need I'll throw in some home made jam, peanut butter, home made granola etc.0

I started making my own yogurt at home. Store bought yogurt has so much sugar in it (I am lactose intolerant, and Yoplait's lactose free yogurt has a whopping 27 grams of sugar in it. It's easy to make and very delicious.0

This. Toasted Coconut has 7g. Meh...:indifferent:
ETA: I've seen worse...but it has Sucralose. So that's a no-go for me. Can't stand aspartame or sucralose. Just add some Clorox to your food/drink and you'll achieve the same taste.0 -

Really? Is that true? Does one serving contain 7 grams sugar? That's like approx 2 teaspoons?0 -
They don't carry it in my local market, but they will order it for me, by the case. But they can only get strawberry or blueberry. Those two flavors are divine! I did get a friend to pick me up some of the toasted coconut vanilla...but I like the strawberry so much better!0

Yikes! 27 grams of sugar? That's more than 6 teaspoons?0 -

I know, right? I almost fell over when I saw that.... no more of that for me, ever! I use Truvia in my homemade yogurt, so the only sugar in it is what's in the lactose-free milk and small container of plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt I use to make it. Much better!0 -

Yeahhh that's a lot considering the container is 5.3oz lol. So yes that's about 1.5 tsps of sugar.0 -

ETA: One 8 Oz. glass of plain skim milk has 8 grams of "sugar" in the form of naturally occurring lactose ...0 -
I suppose I should be concerned with the sugar content. I've been at this for 5 months and have lost 45lbs just staying under my daily calorie goals. The next step in my new healthy life is to pay attention to the content IN the items I'm eating WHILE staying under calories. However, if I compare the two:
Yogurt:
Calories: 80
Calories from fat: 0
Fat: 0
Sodium: 45g
Potassium: 170mg
Carbohydrates: 9g
Sugars: 7g
Protein: 12g
Jamocha Shake:
Calories: 310
Calories from fat: 70
Fat: 8g
Saturated Fat: 5g
Sodium: 240mg
Carbohydrates: 55g
Sugars: 45g
Protein: 4g
Now...it isn't a true fair comparison because a 12oz jamocha shake is bigger than my 5.3oz yogurt. However, I think (for me) it is the better option. I'm not sensitive to fake sugar products and I definetely don't indulge in them in abundance. I think for someone that is taking baby steps at this approach---this yogurt is a pretty good alternative0 -

Right, but plain milk does not contain fructose and modified corn starch does it? Read the ingredients list posted by Laurenz.0 -
I didn't like the caramel macchiato--it tastes TOO MUCH like coffee ::Gasp::
the key lime is GREAT
coconut vanilla is THE BEST EVER!
peach is AWESOME
vanilla is SOLID
that's all I've tried so far.0 -
