    Chobani :) Ditto with above - "Ingredients I can pronounce"

    I usually buy the Wal-Mart Great Value Lite Nonfat Greek Yogurt. I can't say it's the best, but I really like it and the price is good. I've also tried the Dannon Lite & Fit and have no complaints with it either. They both do the job for me.

    I used to eat the Chobani but since they use GMOs, I don't anymore. I tried the Fage, I didn't like it. I've been trying a few of the Yoplait 100 Calorie Greek ones and so far so good.

    My all time favorite greek yogurt is a brand called Nancy's. But out of the three you listed I like Fage Total, I like the full fat ones.

    If texture is the main issue, you might wan to try skyr! It is a lot like greek, but a little thicker. Siggi's is the brand they sell at target.

    Fage is quite simply the best. The other 'Greek style' yoghurts don't even come close.

    I live in a small town, where is Walmart doesn't have it...then I don't have it.

    I go back and forth between Yoplait Greek 100 (the apple pie is awesome) and Oikos (usually blueberry or cherry). They are usually $1.00 and coupons.com always have coupons for one or another. I am not a hugh couponer but if I find them and I would buy the product anyways, I use them.

    Cabot Greek Yogurt is my favorite.

    me too- seems to not be as popular- but it's a great thick texture- and not nearly as expensive as Fage.

    Although- the 10% milkfat is readibly available all the time- the low fat is hard to find. I like them both- just the low fat means I can eat all 220 grams- the 10%milk fat means I only get 130 or so. :( full cup serving of 10% milk fat is like 330 calories vs the 190 of the low fat.

    I have had the chowbani single serving greek yogurts but compared to a more robust brand- it's like cow slobber- just seriously- not that great- not sure how they got so famous honestly LMAO.

    If you can find Dannon fit & light, those are all the rage right now because of the macros. Unfortunately, my grocer doesn't carry it so I have to get Yoplait Source which has great macros too, 50 cal 8 protein, 4 carbs, 0 fat per 100g.
    I am with this post. 100%. I can't buy the Fit and Light early nor often enough.

    The Dannon Activia has a good texture, too.

    My fave is Fage. I get it in a large tub at Costco. When I have it for breakfast I usually add a cup of blueberries and 1/8 cup of granola.

    In the UK - Fage; it's pretty much the only genuine Greek yoghurt you can buy in British supermarkets - the rest are "Greek-style" - quite a big difference in the protein content, and usually made with stuff to bulk it out.

    I just had Yoplait Blended Greek Yogurt - Tangerine and it was disgusting. So sugary. Then, I looked up the ingredients.. blah! Need to pay more attention next time.

    I have been just making my own yogurt, it's pretty simple to make. It also is super cheap and only has one ingredient. Milk.

    Love Fage- Costco often has a variety pack for a reasonable amount

    You can also get the large tub and divvy it out yourself

    I like the ingredients, taste and texture of Fage plain, but unless you can find it on sale, it's not cheap. I don't typcially like the flavored yogurts out there, but I recently stumbled on Tillamook Farmstyle Greek (raspberry or vanilla) and the ingredients aren't too bad, and tastes great. About the same price as Fage though.

    There was a post recently with lots of suggestions...http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1324919-favorite-greek-yogurt

    I buy Fage when its on sale, Safeway or Harris Teether have them on sale 10 for $10 once a month. So for two weeks out of the month I buy my Fage that way.

    Dannon Light & Fit Greek.... I won't buy anything else!! I wish my local grocers carried more flavors though. I miss the Coconut Vanilla and Key Lime Pie blends.

    The dannon and the yoplay are not true Greek yogurts only Greek style. They add fillers to make them thicker. I still say Fage. Its more pricey so some times I eat chobonni or store brand. Plain is great as sour cream and sandwich spread :D

    Just to chime in more for Fage --- I've tried 6 or 7 different brands and Fage continues to be the best.

    This. To me, the Cabot is very tart. Chobani is my 2nd choice.

    Fage 0% Plain. Nothing else even comes close for me in terms of taste and texture.

    I use the Great Value at Walmart, less then $4 for a tub Greek yogurt.

    ^This.
    Cal - 120
    P - 23
    C- 8
    F -0
    Add a serving of sugar free gelatin/228gr (2 servings) of yogurt, and it completely covers the funky taste of the yogurt without all the carbs. At only $.50 - .$.75 per gelatin. Its worth a try. My favorite is the peach gelatin.
