    I love chobani vanilla mixed with a pouch of emerald breakfast on the go... maple and brown sugar with oatmeal or chocolate cherry... YUMMY! It adds the perfect amount of crunch and sweetness, plus fruit! :)

    I am eating my Chobani Strawberry Greek Yogurt right now. It took me trying it a couple of times to actually like the tartness and flavor- but now its a great breakfast!

    It's all delicious, but this one in particular:

    Oh man, that's my favorite too!

    I have this one in my fridge! I have been a little afraid to try it- as in the past yogurt with apple type flavors tasted super artificial.

    I use Greek Gods plain full-fat yogurt and add my own fruit. I love the Greek style... it lacks the bitter tang that the "normal" yogurt has, so I don't feel like I need to add honey or agave to it at all.

    I love greek yogurt! I have been buying plain and adding french vanilla stevia drops. Delish.

    jreed1920, Where do you get the flavored stevia?

    New here and so glad to see so many people recommending Chobani- It's my favorite because it's not as sweet as other yogurts.

    At the suggestion of my friends, I have started eating greek yogurt, instead of the typical Yoplait. But I still dont understand the craze? Is there added health benefits eating greek vs standard? I eat fat free yogurt whether greek or not. and other than a boatload of protein (which I try not to go overboard with due to trying to have a balanced diet) I see no difference. It doesnt cut down in sugar... can someone help me out.

    I usually eat Yoplait fat free yogurts, but they have become too sweet for me, and I am trying to cut back on sugar. I have started eating Dannon Oikos fat free greek yogurts. Any suggestions on a great tasting, not too sweet, yogurt?

    Fage with a spoonful of honey stirred in, and if I can get them, fresh figs. Yum.

    I like honey, sugar is not the enemy.

    Greek Gods here too. I add honey and walnuts when eating it as a snack, but I use it as a sub for sour cream on tacos, mix it with vinegar for salad dressing and put it on anything else I can think of. I do the full fat version, but usually 1Tbsp. per serving (or 1/4 cup as a snack).

    I love Greek yoghurt. Don't have Chobani here but I have Total (the 0% one) every day. It's AWESOME.

    Where is here? If it's Canada, its here now! They were giving away free tubs at the Auto show in February.

    I hate the fact that GY is 4x the price of regular and if you buy non-plain the carbs far outweigh any protein benefit and if you buy plain, you'll need to add your own fruit otherwise it's like eating sour cream, eww!

    I buy the plain fat free Oikos in the big tub, and mix in fresh chopped up strawberries and honey to sweeten it. :) Now I can't go back to eating the pre-flavored ones! You guys should try it, I feel like it's much better/less processed that way.
