    I have mine with grapefuit segments and blueberries as my afternoon snack. I cut the fruit the night before so all the juice from the grapefuit (ruby are best but normal grapefruit is fine) are in the container with the blueberries and cold!
    Yummo

    You can use it in place of sour cream. Also you can use it in place of oil for brownie and cake mixes as well.

    Lol my grandmother accidentally bought plain instead of vanilla. I tried it and deffffffinitely not something I'd eat as is. Lol what can I use it for? Any ideas or recipes you can share would be great :)
    If you're not keen on the taste it can also be used to treat fungal infections.

    I just use it with my chocolate flavored protein powder. I had never tried it before and the taste was very weird lol. I've gotten used to it and I really do enjoy it with the protein powder. It's like double the protein and quite filling.

    I'm willing to try it with something else, might nick everyone's ideas lol.

    brown some chicken, then put the chicken in an oven dish,
    beat an egg yolk with some Dijon mustard plain Greek yogurt and pour it over the chicken
    top with a little grated cheese and bake

    Eat it with fruit or use it as a substitute for sour cream.

    i eat it every day with strawberries, blueberries and granola! so good!

    i also use it as a healthier replacement for sour cream! i bake a sweet potato (or put a sweet potato in the microwave for 10 mins), cut it open, then put some greek yogurt and a laughing cow cheese inside and mash it all up! a seriously delicious and seriously easy dinner! i can never even finish cause it's so filling!

    Use it in place of Sour Cream, much healthier as it's lower in sugar and sat fat.. :)

    Use it whenever a recipe calls for sour cream.

    In my protein shakes, makes it nice and creamy like a smoothie.
    Before bed with some berries and walnuts.

    Like some of the other suggestions, will try a few out, except for the sweeteners, Only sugar I eat is already in the food.

    I mix it with my instant oatmeal packets (my favorite is Active Lifestyle Apple Chai) and a bit of milk to thin it out, delicious!
