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.
