Greek Yogurt
 

Hi All!
I've found a great new yogurt - Greek strained yogurt. It tastes really great! I'm not much of a yogurt eater - but I need to eat more due to the calcium (I always need extra calcium). It is hard for me to find this particular brand, so many of you may not be able to - but I've been seeing Greek yogurt in my local store for a while. I haven't tried any other brands, maybe some of you have, if so, are they good?

This brand is Fage, 2%. It has a little side container (not mixed with the plain yogurt) that is honey, peaches, or strawberries. The container says NOT to stir the yogurt, so you just spoon it on the top of the plain yogurt and eat. MMMMMM! The yogurt is thick - I don't much like runny yogrut, so this consistency is great!

It is 130 cals per container (2%) for strawberry and peach and 180 for honey. I don't care for the honey as I think it is too sweet, of course, I could just reduce the amount of honey I spoon on top! There is a whole milk yogurt also, but that has way too many calories for me!

Sounds good Gayle, but I will probably never find it here in Podunk, TX:rolleyes:

I just found the full fat yogurt in HEB - I asked them to get the 2%, but don't know if they will or not. Do you have HEB in Podunk, Tx? :D

ROFL :sidesplit:

(Still laughing!!!) I don't care for yogurt. I've tried it several times and I just don't care for it. We probably don't have it in Podunk, Kansas either!! :sidesplit:

Well, I KNOW you don't have an HEB in Podunk, Kansas. Diana! You are a scream!

As a matter of fact, Podunk, TX DOES have an HEB :p Small and old, but an HEB indeed;)

So, Betsi, you may be able to get your small old HEB to order in the 2% Greek Yogurt and transform your whole Podunk, TX town!!! :lol2:

It's possible Marilyn! I think I'll go for it... just think, I could be a local hero:bravo:

Do you really live in Podunk?

Podunk is what you call any small town that doesn't have much in the way of amenities.

That's why I was making fun.

No Diana. I really live in Carthage, TX. I was just making fun, too. DUHHHH:confuse2:

Besides that, I'm VERY hard to offend:rolleyes: Love ya girl:p

My hubby graduated from HS in Crockett. Is that near Carthage? Guess I could check Google Maps, duh!!

It's about 2 hours SW of Carthage. We are 45 miles west of Shreveport in the beautiful piney woods of east Texas :)

I'm eating my 2% Fage right now! Oddly enough, we do have it in Podunk, NY in Freshtown. Thank goodness for wealthy weekenders. We ave some fancy foods to keep them happy.

I get a big Fage, with no "dressings" on the side. I eat mine mixed with maple and brown sugar instant oatmeal, flax seed, wheat germ, and blueberries if I have them. Its a very filling breakfast/lunch.

I have been getting the most delicious fruits and veggies lately! The farm stands are stocked up with gorgeous tomatoes! I have been going to different strands that people recommend. It is a lot of fun. I'm going blueberry picking soon.

I love plain yogurt on granola cereal. I haven't tried Fage on it yet, but I think it would be GREAT!!! It's hard though, to find granola that isn't FULL of sugar and fat.

I'm going to try it though, cause I think it would be great!
