    Is it just me? Do I have issues? LOL I cannot STAND the texture of Greek Yogurt. I dunno what it is, but the texture really bothers me. I LOOOVE yogurt, and I am so angry at myself for hating the texture of the Greek yogurt so much because it is so high in protein so I know it's a good choice, but OMG something about the texture really really bothers me... like... to the point of gagging. Am I the only alone oddball freak here?!?!:laugh:

    Sweetie you're not alone. I have plenty of friends and family that feel the same way that you do. I like it, but I like it with some kind of fresh fruit too.

    there is a disorder that pertains to issues with certain texture foods. I cannot eat any yogurt or pudding. can't eat raspberries or blackberries. not even kd. I can eat yoplait thick and creamy yogurt however being that its a different texture.

    I love yogurt but personally think Greek Yogurt is just about the nastiest thing I've ever experienced. G-R-O-S-S!

    the only yogurt i eat is Greek Yogurt. ha ha :)
    i really really enjoy it. i think it tastes so much better than regular yogurt. much more creamy and substantial tasting :)
    but everyone is different, and greek yogurt is one of those foods that everyone has to agree to disagree on ha ha

    If you really want to eat it, try spreading flavored/fruit greek yogurt on a bagel like creak cheese.

    Okay, as long as we're on the subject of foods/items we can't stand I'm weird because I HATE Wrigleys Spearmint Gum. It tastes like old people's breath smells. Reminds me of the nursing home I used to work in. LOL!

    I did not like it at the beginning, but I made myself eat it every morning for two weeks. Now regular yogart is really runny. Greek yogart is my go to food for breakfast.

    I'll eat Greek yogurt, but it did take me a while to get used to the texture. One thing I can't force down is oatmeal! I've tried so many times, but I usually just end up gagging...gross! So no worries, everyone's different :-)

    I have the same issue. Some people have told me that different brands taste better than others, but I haven't tried any more. I'm sticking to regular yogurt for now!

    I like yogurt as well, but greek yogurt even when flavored reminds me of a think think sour cream sauce like one would serve with meat. I'm sticking to yoplait light yogurt cause I get enough protien with a daily whey protien shake.

    I like the idea of using it on a thin bagel (if you don't mind the carbs)..

    I have tried Greek yogurt several occasions (once with added granola) and I still can't stand it! It is gritty, chalky, and chokingly gross IN MY OPINION!

    Years ago, I couldn't stand the texture of regular yogurt. I started putting Grape Nuts cereal into it and that helped a lot. I eventually got to the point where I can eat regular yogurt and actually tried Greek yogurt a few weeks ago for the first time. Thankfully, it didn't bother me, but the lack of flavors does. I don't like strawberry flavored stuff :noway: and it seems that they all come in plain or strawberry and, if I'm lucky, blueberry.

    I've tried several different brands, and I've noticed a distinct difference between some of them. I cannot stand the Yoplait variety; I stick with either the generic brand at Trader Joes or Fresh and Easy, or one of the actual Greek yogurt manufacturers, like Voskos. So you might try it a few different ways. If you really just can't stand it, perhaps just using it as a base for a fruit smoothie is a good way to get the benefits whilst masking the taste/texture.

    I love Greek yogurt. You might try different varieties to see which one is less yucky to you. Yoplait is very thick much like their thick n creamy yogurt. Personally, I prefer Chobani because I like the taste, texture, and the 16gm of protein
