    I like Trader Joe's fat-free plain greek yogurt the best. Other brands are decent, though. I tried full fat greek yogurt once and it was so nasty it got thrown out after one bite.

    Fage Plain 0% or chobani vanillia 0% -- but after seeing the other posters, I am going to try the Costco 0%!

    I tried Chobani Greek first and then Yoplait Greek and then everything greek :tongue: Didn't like any of them.
    Then one fine day a small little pack caught my attention and when i read the label it said a 100 calories with 8 grams of protein and just 13 grams of carbs. It was Chobani Bite Size - Raspberry with Dark Chocolate Chips.

    Now that's a classic combo so I thought I will give it a try. How bad can it be ? And I fell in love with it. Its yumilicious and so so so i don't even know what to say.

    I told a couple of colleagues at work about it and now I see atleast 10 packs of that in my Office Break Room Refrigerator everyday. :smile:

    Noosa is the best period. Best flavors, best texture. I took some up to my daughter when she was in the hospital after her car accident. All the nurses there raved about it being the only one they eat. It is wonderful!!

    I second this. That stuff is amazing!

    I don't like Greek yogurt as a yogurt. I think it's too rich and too strong-tasting to be with fruit. Except in smoothies, it makes them so thick and rich.

    What I do like it as is a sour cream replacement, or a 'filler' where I would put cheese (instead of 1/2 cup cheese when I'm cooking, I'll melt 1/4 cup cheese into 1/4 cup Greek yogurt).

    fage PLAIN full fat is like a dream come true.

    Where can I find this miracle food? Everywhere I go sells the 0%.

    I've only been able to reliably find Oikos full fat at Target. They don't carry full Fage and only had it from someone else. I liked it since they used whole milk and cream but am still on the hunt.

    Where do you get Greek God's?

    Just checked the Fage website and they have a store locator to look for I div ideal varieties. Found some now at one of the Hy-Vee groceries in my city.

    I am a Chobani FAN! All flavors are pretty good in my book...try the peach, strawberry and cinnamon apple for starters. :smile:

    Once you get use to the taste--they all pretty much taste the same. Just go for the lower calorie ones. AND the lime ones are very tasty

    I get the kind with the fruit, and it does not taste sour to me. The texture is definitely thicker, and that part I dont like. I like regular Dannon with fruit on the bottom, it has a thinner texture. Greek yogurt is like eating cream cheese. You might be able to disguise the flavor, but the texture is the same in all those Greek yogurts.

    I've gotten into making my own granola regularly and putting fresh fruit in my yogurt. I've always been afraid to try greek yogurt because I've been told it's very sour. With all the granola and fruit added in, I think I'm ready to give it a try. I've read that my fat free yoplait light is not the best for me so I'm going to try going greek.

    So.... what is your favorite brand/flavor? Looking for something with low sugar/ no artificial sweetener. Or just tell me what you like lol. To make it into an even bigger deal than I am already.... leave any advice or expectations I should have before trying.

    Fage and Greek Gods

    Definitely Fage 2% or whole-- don't mess with that 0 junk, tastes yucky, bad texture, and not as good for you! Trader Joe's also makes awesome yogurt if you have one near.

    Oh yeah, and I also agree with Greek Gods, if you get whole. It's a good stand by for Fage if it's not available!

    Chobani fat free Greek yoghurt - it has twice the amount of protein as other yoghurts and is really creamy and delicious.

    I like Brown Cow Greek yogurt - taste less Greeky.

    I also like Greek of the Gods Plain yogurt with walnuts and dark chocolate chips.

    Thanks for reminding me I am out! Store run for me. :tongue:

    Choose an organic greek if you don't want to eat hormones and/or antibiotics. I like Stonyfield Oikos O% Fat Organic Greek yogurt. It's my favorite.
