    The Greek Gods, Plain nonfat or traditional is the best.
    I add some blueberries.

    I hate how sweet most yogurts are and never buy flavored.

    No one has mentioned my favorite: Voskos 2x protein/non-fat. It does not taste like no fat greek yogurt, Lots of flavors. Only one I am not in love with is the pomengranite because the real pomengranite bits tend to get stuck in my teeth and I am not a big pemgranite fan tostart with. Try a few varitieis. They have definitely americanized the taste.

    Put a drop of honey in to it, you only need the smallest amount and some fruit - makes it taste loads better.

    I'm in love with the oikos blueberry. The honey and the vanilla taste a little sour to me but that's just yogurt...

    I love Fage 2% with some honey or in my smoothie.

    0% fat yogurt is crap. A little fat won't kill you. Try 2% if you're feeling hesitant - it's delicious. I add it to smoothies, but I also use it as a replacement for sour cream in savory dishes. On top of sweet potatoes, with curry dishes, or add some dip mix to it to make dips for veggies and whatnot.

    Or maybe you just don't like plain yogurt. :) That's cool. Just add something sweet to it like preserves, a little jelly or some fruit and nuts, honey, granola, whatever you want... it'll almost taste like your regular fruit yogurt.

    I think I first tried chobani. Let's just say I wasn't in a rush to try greek yogurt again... Yuck.

    But I really liked stonyfield yogurt, so I decided to give their greek yogurt (Oikos, I believe) a try. Not bad! Still tart-- just like any plain yogurt-- so I add a little honey to it. But believe it or not, I will be buying it from here on out! :)

    I eat Stonyfield brand's organic plain Greek yogurt, 1 cup with 1 tablespoon of (real) honey. Plenty sweet for me. :) It's also great in smoothies and protein shakes, add in whatever you like and you can barely taste it. I also put it in things instead of using mayonnaise, I put it in omelets from time to time, use it with cooking chicken and all sorts of things. It's a great way to add protein to almost any meal, you don't have to only eat it plain by itself. :)

    To be honest, I think the fattier version is a lot nicer.

    ^^this!! I eat Fage Total 2% because the 0% is gross to me. I eat plain but with a packet of Raspberry Emergen-C mixed into it for some flavor. It did take me a while to get used to it but I really enjoy it now!

    I dont like no fat products(they look funny) my body needs fat especially the good kind that is in dairy products. I will do lowfat and go back and forth every 2 weeks or as I run out of a product to reg fat then back to low fat. I do not want my body to get in a set pattern so it stalls. I love all yogurt but I am used to the sweet stuff. But I am going to find a way to incorporate greek yogurt just for chitz and giggles to see what it does to me.

    Dannon Oikos Black Cherry is delicious. It's fat free with 12 grams of protein. The lemon, lime & other flavors are good too, but the black cherry is amazing!!!!

    If I get the 0%, I have to add some agave nectar or stevia, and yes, it is sour when the plain kind, even the Fage which is the brand I stick to as we don't get much else in the Uk beyond own store brands.

    I prefer the 2%. I do not need to add anything. High in protein, low in carbs and goes superbly with fresh fruit.
