    i eat chobani greek yogurt because I bodybuild and its an excellent source of quality protein. They have the flavored kinds. The plain has the highest amount of protein..i think like 18 grams. and vanilla is like 16 i think. most are around 14 grams. I cant stand the plain myself, but i have put homemade granola in it, but then that ups the calories a lot.

    I highly reccomend using Goat milk yogurt. It will not be thick like Greek style yogurt as that has ben filtered to remove the whey from it. It is very tastey though and very healthy. I avoid anything from a cow really. Yogurt can be used many ways. I enjoy using it on my oatmeal with some blueberrys, cinnamon, chopped walnuts and ground flax seed. Use a little raw honey if you need sweetness. It also makes a great desert. Try a 1/4 cup of goat yogurt with an equal amount of berries, like sliced straberries, some honey and chopped nuts again. Great snack!

    You are just use to your old yogurt. Sour cream was my first impression too. Back off the regular stuff and give Chobani a few days. Soon you'll think it tastes normal.

    I use the plain yogurt and add some frozen strawberries to it plus a packet of truvia. I am not a yogurt fan but I love it this way and eat it a few times a week.

    I have to tell you - I love the Athenos greek strained yogurt (especially HONEY) it is delish!!!
    There have different flavors Blueberry, Honey, Peach, Strawberry so far...

    I purchase it at walmart 1.00 each or when it is on sale at my local supermarket.

    I disliked Chobani when I tried it. I much prefer the Greek Gods and Fage brands. I'd suggest just trying some of the other brands out there before giving up on greek yogurt entirely.

    I mix 2 parts honey-flavored traditional (Zoi brand) Greek yogurt with 1 part Fage Total 0 non-fat (which I CAN'T eat plain!) and the result is really good tasting and lowers the carb and calorie content a bit. I had it with fresh blueberries the other day, and it was as satisfying as ice cream.


    Thanks for the advice about the Fage yogurt! I tried that about a week ago and gagged! I heard it was really good, like a sweet dessert, but I couldn't stand it. I think I will try mixing it, and maybe I will like that, Thanks!

    The creamy pudding-like thickness is the part I like best about Greek yogurt! It's my new "dessert".

    Me too!! I have a new obsession with it!!

    I like to have dannon's greek plain nonfat yogurt with a 1/2 cup of fresh blueberries. (120 calories and 15g protein)

    As long as you have fresh blueberries in every bite, it is sweet, sour and super TASTY!

    I add 1/4 cup of fiber one regular cereal and cinnamon. Sweet, crunchy, with a little kick. Try that. Plus it's a great way to get protein and fiber.
