    I like the Oikos fruit on the bottom.

    oikos plain only! I dislike Chobani because I think it tastes like sour milk. And I only eat plain because the others are too sweet. I do put stevia in it though every time. Love greek yogurt!

    Chobani is best if you want to just have a yogurt snack. But as far as substituting greek yogurt in your cooking, I would stick with Oikos. Chobani is too creamy to work well as a substitute in my opinion. As a snack though it's high calorie and lacking good nutirition. I wouldn't consume more than one cup a day, and I would watch your protein intake. I try to limit my meats, so greek yogurt is always on my shopping list, but it's my naughty diet food.

    I really like the Kroger brand! They're less sweet than Chobani. I usually get the plain, but I've tried a lot of the other flavors (strawberry, blueberry, vanilla, lemon, pomegranate) and haven't had one I didn't like yet!

    I do eat Chobani as well though because my husband likes them and we get them in bulk at Sam's Club. Sometimes I'll mix it with some plain to cut the sweetness.

    Neither for my wife and me. We stick to Kirkland Plain Greek Yogurt. It costs less then Fage but has a similar taste and great nutrition facts. I'll often mash some fresh berries and mix it with this yogurt. This was actually my breakfast this morning...strawberries and kirkland greek yogurt.

    Chobani Pineapple has been my favorite yogurt for years...but the other day, I had Noosa Honey. Sorry, Chobani! I'm in love.

    THIS!! OMG, Noosa and I have a love affair...I could eat that yogurt every meal. I love to buy local and that's the excuse I use to pay a little more for this dream yogurt.

    Neither - Fage Full Fat. Why? Because it's thicker and adding 1 tablespoon of Jello cheesecake mix turns it exactly into cheesecake filling. I've tried fat-free and 2% varieties of Oikos, Voskos, Chobani and Fage - but the full-fat produces the better cheesecake filling thanks to the fat content which gives it that fluffy texture.

    Sounds yummy! I will have to try this but with the 0% plain! Thanks for the tip!

    Chobani for me, the Oikos is a bit heavier on my stomach.

    I have texture issues so Chobani is out for me...it's too much like cottage cheese and has a sour cream type taste to it. I really like the Oikos because it has a great flavor to it and is creamy, which I don't get from Chobani. I've heard good things about Fage but haven't tried it yet.

    Whatever's on sale for $1 each that week, lol.
    ^^This.

    I personally think the store brand (I shop at Ginat), tastes sooo much better than Chobani

    Chobani with fruit on the bottom-I like Oikos, but Chobani has more and better flavors in my opinion, and they also make those flip things which I love sometimes having.

    Are Oikos and Fage similar? I don't mind the sourness of yogurt but my mom dislikes it greatly so I'm looking for a healthy, not sour, sweet style yogurt for her. What would you recommend - the Oikos or Fage? Neither?

    0% produces the least cheesecake-like fluffiness because of its lack of fat. You'd have to add a ton of Jello cheesecake pudding mix to make up for it. I look at it as a 200 calorie meal, not a snack.

    Tried both, hated both. Love Noosa, though.

    All the other greek yogurt I've tried tastes like sour cream but has a gritty texture. Noosa is amazing.
