FAGE Greek yogurt VS. YOPLAIT (FAKE!) Greek Yogurt

Also try Siggi's skyr Icelandic yogurt - also strained - and the flavored ones are VERY low sugar. Go to their website - it's very informative. If you like you yogurt not so sweet and hi pro - this is good. Love Fage too.

Hey, what store have you found that in?

They have it at Whole Foods. It is tarter than Chobani/similar.

Cool! I could damn near walk to my Whole Foods. That's great. :happy:

I only looked at the Strawberry/Banana nutrition and there is not any cornstarch. The ingredients look really good to me.

I recently switched to greek yogurt as well. I love the Chobani's. I haven't seen Fage, but I'm going to keep a lookout to try one.

I think Chobani does a better job with flavors than Fage. Or maybe it is more accurate to say Fage is overpriced for the flavored. IT keeps the preserves or honey in a side compartment. Chobani is fruit on the bottom or blended.

Nice catch, and thanks for posting.

PS - I make my own Greek yogurt - a little bit of effort,, but I get a QUART of all natural, yummy, creamy heaven for less than $4

i cant get greek yogurt where i live , but my cousin makes all natural homemade fruit yogurt for me. zero preservatives or anything. I heard you can make greek yogurt from regular and you seem to know how! mind telling me about it? i've been dying to know hahaha and tomorrow im going to my cousin's house so it would be the perfect time to experiment

you have to look carefully at the labels. fage is greek yogurt. at trader joes, they call their version "greek style" yogurt, which as was already discussed, is just regular yogurt with gelatin and corn starch to make it thicker. oikos, chobani, and yoplait are all greek STYLE yogurt fakes! blech!

IMO, fage is worth the extra $$.

I started making my own last November. It's added a whole new depth to my menu planning. I have a yogurt maker which really helps.

They're both equally disgusting, in my opinion.

I go with Stonyfield Oikos (NOT Dannon Oikos) because of the same reason. No weird ingredients.

On top of being organic, Stonyfield also donates 10% of their profits to helping the earth.

Once you start looking at the ingredients in your yogurt, the selection becomes VERY limited!

Organic! Wins every time. I like the fage but I have to chose organic over it.

I eat fage 0% and 2% with cherry, honey, peach, and blueberry. I buy ten a week and eat a 0% for breakfast and 2% for desert.

And at 140 calories it's more filling than skinny cow :P

Take a yogurt with minimal ingredients (i.e. milk and cultures). Line a strainer with a cheese cloth or coffee filters. PLace it over another bowl. Dump the yogurt in and place it in the fridge (I like to cover with plastic wrap). Wait about 3-4 hours and check the consistency. In your bowl there will be a lot of liquid. It may take 8 hours for it to get to your preferred consistency. That's it!
