    I was eating a lot of Greek yogurt recently and just got tired of it so switched to different kinds. I like them all.

    I just started eating greek yogurt along with regular yogurt. It was something different to try but it does take some getting used to.

    I prefer greek yogurt for a couple reasons. First, twice the protein as regular yogurt. Second, I prefer the texture of greek yogurt. I buy plain greek yogurt, then add my own fruit and honey to it, as I avoid any processed foods. I also like greek yogurt to make tzaziki sauce and dressings. Also like it for smoothies.

    Same. Smoothies, what a solid idea.

    Greek- its the best- Fage Total 0% with lemon curd and some strawberries...

    Or if youre from the UK because I dont think you have it in the US yet- Chocolate Philadeplhia in one of those 30g tubs, greek yogurt (Asda's own fat free greek style is good too) with strawberries or raspberries or some chopped up banana.....

    omg- way better than ice cream :0)

    I put it on salads too with a bit of lemon juice...... proper good !!!

    Greek yogurt is much better for curries and other recipes that call for yogurt as well. Makes them thicker and easier to work with.

    I try to buy greek whenever possible. However, my grocery store is always really busy, and usually sold out of greek. In this case I will buy natural yogurt. It's still better than the other regular types of yogurts even if its not as good as greek imo.

    I've wanted to try Greek yogurt, but the higher calorie content has dissuaded me from doing so. Are there any lower calorie Greek yogurts out there I should try?
