depends where you live as to where you can buy it. In Canada (Alberta) I have a job finding it, it is almost unavailable. In Calif where I am now, its everywhere, Costco, Vons etc. Also its much better than regular yoghurt, tastier and more nutrients.
you can get Liberte at Costco. 20 grams of protein per serving. only 5 grams of sugar.
they also carry the fruit flavors at Save On Foods but the profile isn't as good.0 -
What is greek yogurt and where can you get it? and what ARE the "lots" benefits?
I buy Chobani brand Plain Nonfat Greek yogurt at Walmart. It has 18 g of protein and 7g of sugar100 calories. I mix it with fruit and sometimes nuts for a filling protein packed yummy breakfast!!
Here's an article about the benefits:

I have been thinking about trying some Greek yogurt. I don't like the sourness of regular yogurt. Does the greek yogurt have the same sourness?0

Greek is higher in protein and lower in fat. Honestly though, I just prefer nonfat plain yogurt with some honey & berries. It's only like 4g lower in protein than Greek but it's easier for me to handle, taste-wise and it's cheaper!0

if you think normal yoghurt is sour, you probably won't like Greek, as it is more so.

I eat a cup of Greek yogurt and 1 tbsp of honey... It's pure love!!!!! It's thick and so much better for you. Toss in some fruit and you will be hell a happy. PS... I eat the 0% or 2% fat greek yogurt! Still good!0
