Sweet Jesus!

Look at what I found at Trader Joe's. Thanks for the tip, Anandi! 17.6 oz of pure, creamy, tangy yogurt love. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about - Fage. Sheer perfection.

A friend emailed with a delicious looking way to get more Fage into your diet. Turn it into frozen yogurt, of course. You can find the recipe here. Apparently it rivals the famous Pinkberry Frozen Yogurt.

Do you have a product you'd love to tell the world about? Is it food, garden, crafting or quilting related? Let me know - I'll help you spread the word.

Go Greek - Product Review

Lately I just can't get enough Greek yogurt. Have you tried this stuff? My God it's good. Every morning I've been eating granola, frozen blueberries and a large dollop of this creamy goodness. I've tried 3 brands now. Here is my opinion of each:

Oikos - Organic Greek Yogurt 0% fat: Very Creamy. A bit too reminiscent of sour cream both in appearance, texture and smell. Made by Stonyfield Farm

The Greek Gods Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt: Seemed like regular ol' plain yogurt to me. Pretty gelatinous, not dense and creamy. Opaque appearance. Skip it.

Fage Total 0%: Forget ambrosia, this stuff if truly the food of the Gods! It is unbelievably creamy for a nonfat yogurt. I can't imagine what the full fat version is like. The texture is unlike any 'regular' yogurt. It is almost like a whipped butter - only not. It stays in a scoop. It isn't viscous at all. Fage is the only one of the three yogurts that is labeled strained yogurt. This may explain the difference in texture. It has a distinct and strong yogurt taste. It is a bit pricer, but it is worth every penny! YOU MUST TRY IT!

If you're already a Greek yogurt lover, I'd be interested in how you like to eat it. Honestly, by the spoonful seems to work for me, but I don't want to miss anything.
