    Not sure if you have one near you, but I like Trader Joe's greek yogurt. The honey and pomegranate are a bit tart, but I like them better then sweet.

    I agree! Trader Joe's brand is the first one I tried, and I love it. Blueberry's not too sweet, either. :)

    Before I was trying the whole vegan thing, I was OBSESSED with Fage yogurt! It's the absolute best. The one with honey was my absolute favorite treat ever.

    I like them all but if you arent a fan of greek yogurt then try chobani champions. They are made for kids and come in 4pks. I found them at a super target. The banana honey is awesome and tastes like regular yogurt! Hope this helps! :)

    CHOBANIIII all the way!

    I AGREE 100%!! I've tried every flavor I know of except for mango and plain. Pineapple is SO good as well as the raspberry. I'm not sure if I've just gotten used to the texture, but since I started eating it about a year ago I feel like the texture is a little smoother than before. Peach is good, black cherry, strawberry...and I love the honey when I just want something simple. But I always mix in a little granola with that flavor. YUMMY! The only thing is I wish they didn't have to have so much sugar you know?

    I like Fage 0% plain Greek Yogurt. I don't buy the flavored ones because they have an incredible amount of sugar in them. The way I sweeten it is with 1/2 cup of Kashi Go Lean Honey Almond Flax cereal (protein & crunch)l and 1/2 cup of strawberries. Super yummy, super healthy. I like Fage because it's one of the best tasting plain greek yogurts out there, very creamy and thick, (in my opinion) and it has probiotics built in for immunity and intestinal health.

    Hope this helps :~)

    I LOVE Oikos, my favorite of all and I don't buy the flavored ones for the same reason, only the NF plain. I add fresh fruit, 1 tsp vanilla flavoring, and either 1 tsp of honey, agave nectar, or Truvia. I'll have to try it with Kashi which I have on hand! I also use Greek yogurt in smoothies for protein!

    Chobani! Pineapple and mango are my favorite. I actually like them all, except for the pomegranate.

    If you don't like it, why eat it. I like Greek yogurt and prefer it to most regular yogurt but I rarely eat it because it just adds protein and calories I don't need (I'm almost always over on protein anyway).

    Liberte Greek non fat vanilla Organic yogourt.

    I will eat that stuff right out of the tub, until I get yelled at for hogging it all to myself.

    Chobani with fruit on the bottom :love:

    It's really yummy. I've tried a lot of other brands and never really liked them. My favorite is the one with blueberry.

    Because protein is good and the default amount MFP suggests is far too low.

    No, it's the USDA recommendation based on what you entered as your activity level. But they point was that there are plenty of other sources of protein than Greek yogurt, so I don't see why anyone would try to eat it if they don't like it. If you don't like yogurt, eat nuts, or meat, or fish, or cheese, or beans or some other protein source.

    I agree here, SO much sugar. I also add vanilla and fruit as suggested earlier, or sometimes just use it in smoothies. I'll have to try it with pudding mix, sounds like a great dessert idea.

    I eat Liberte' plain greek yogurt and add 1-2 packets of Sweet n Low to it, then some cinnamon. I don't like buying flavored ones, they taste too sweet for me. It's more fun trying to find ways to flavor it at home, anyways.
  • Chobani with fruit is my choice.

    Greek yogurt is wierd.

    Personally I like FAGE plain and then I stir in sugar free fat free pudding mix.


    But I hear honey mixed in it is good too..

    It is an aquired taste so it takes some getting used to.
    I agree. Of the plain Greek yogurts, I prefer Fage. Chobani left a funny aftertaste to me. I do Fage with a little bit of agave nectar mixed in. Yum!! Sometimes I'll add fresh blueberries, strawberries and/or banana. Love it! I've also used plain Greek yogurt in place of sour cream and mayo when mixing up my tuna.
