    I've never tried Fage. I really like Chobani though.

    I like Stonyfield. Really thick and creamy. I also substitute for sour cream.

    Fage, Chobani, and Oikos are all good. It's not supposed to taste "grainy" as far as I know. It's a bit bitter, but that's why you add fruit and things to it.

    I really like Chobani and Brown Cow - both are all natural and cost about the same. I'm not a fan of plain or honey flavored but all the fruit on the bottom varieties (except lemon) are great!

    Chobani is the best. Shouldn't be grainy. Should be tangy and super duper creamy. I buy the plain nonfat Chobani and use it as a substitute for sour cream. Love it.
    Yep Chobani for my vote too.
    The plain is great for what was said above, you can also add a little garlic to it and use it for a wonderful Alfredo sauce too :) Just add some skim mozzarella :)

    I use the Vanilla Non-Fat Chobani as either part of my meal or I add 4 oz to my protein shakes - Makes them even better tasting and better in the protein department!

    I like the Chobani and I add a squeeze of lemon and frozen blueberries for breakfast or a snack. I have also just tried the Athenos strained which I prefer for a substitute for sour cream or mayonnaise - it is a little drier in texture.

    Dannon is my favorite. I think Chobani is my second choice, but really what I know is I love dannon... But the single serving containers have a thicker texture than the larger container, which is a bummer. Unless that one large one I got was a fluke.

    Personally I didn't like Chobani, but I like most others. I am going to try the fage with honey and see if I like it. Usually I am a vanilla kind of girl.

    I noticed a funky aftertaste, so I'll probably stay away from this brand in the future.

    For the full fat varieties:

    Fage
    Voskos
    Cabot (I've only seen it in LARGE containers, but a very good value, nonetheless)

    I once bought a large container of what I assumed was Greek yogurt in a Middle Eastern market and it ended up being Lebanese yogurt. It's got a more slippery texture, and while it didn't go well plain or with fruit, it was amazing to use in cooking.

    Fage is the best Greek yogurt on the planet. The others pale in comparison
