I used to be a huge lover of Yoplait yogurt. Several months ago I started trying to eat cleaner and cut out processed stuff from my diet. This morning I went to grab groceries and Yoplait was on sale. I grabbed it, remembering how tasty it was, and had one with lunch.

It just plain tasted FAKE. No other way to describe it. It didn't taste like yogurt, or fruit, or anything recognizable. I couldn't even finish it...bleh.

    Agreed, most of those have artificial sweetners that take away from the great taste of yogurt. I love Brown Cow brand.....

    Have you tried any sort of Greek yogurt? I think you might like that better, especially fruit-at-the-bottom.

    I like Chobani Greek Yogurt. A lot of the cheaper yogurts are loaded with sugars, might as well eat full fat ice cream.

    What is even worse is when you start looking at the labels on stuff, speaking of fake. I started just looking at ingredients...I don't want to eat half of the stuff I have in my fridge!

    I used to love Yopliat...Expecially fruit on the bottom, but kinda blah anymore...... You should try Chobani. Has actual fruit and takes fabulous!! Especially the strawberry banana.

    Almost anything processed is like that to me now.

    I have no idea why I was so addicted to the stuff for so long....

    Love me some fat free Yoplait. :) I put it in the freezer so it's sorta like ice cream, which I can't eat without turning my tummy upside down. I've tried greek yogurt and...well, ick. More left for you guys who like it. :)

    I usually buy my kids the Stonyfield Yogurt tubes. They love them! But, they didn't have any the last time I went shopping so I bought them Simply Gogurt...gross! They don't even like them! Fage is the best yogurt, IMHO.

    I like Greek Gods..honey, cinnamon orange..something (it's a tan container). It's not low fat so they haven't processed it much. the ingredients are fairly basic.

    I used to eat yoplait daily and now after eating greek yogurt (fage, chobani, oikos, etc.) yoplait tastes like I'm eating pure sugar. Still tasty, but not something I want to consume daily anymore.

    Greek Gods or Fage full fat plain Greek Yogurt are about the only yogurts I can eat.

    I also like Mountain High, full fat cream lined plain yogurt, but I can't find it anymore since I moved away from our local Coop.

    Sure it wasn't just off? I've had that before.

    Although it is true things often aren't as good as we remember...with our rose-tinted..err...taste buds.

    Me, too. For me, it's like a wonder food. One cup can keep me satisfied for a long time.

    Yeah - that's actually my LEAST favorite yogurt out there. I don't mind Chobani's, or other greek yogurts, but I lean towards plain, vanilla, or honey sweetened ones. :)
