Damn it, I've yet to find Greek Yogurt around here, but have tried Kiefer (strawberry flavor) and it's really good...especially if you like yogurt.

:-\ hmmm... seems to be pretty easy to find - now.  Even Wal Mart carries some. Where you at? (you can PM if you want).

I'll have to go out and take a look again tomorrow.  I went back to look at this thread and saw some of the pics of the other brands of Greek Yogurt, I look for those...I'm right by Gurnee, IL (in between Milwaukee and Chicago) I'm sure there's some around here.

Ok, I found some at Walmart.  It's pretty good (with the fruit).  Someone at work saw me eating it and laughed and said that it was for baking only and asked who the hell told me I should eat it by itself...haha and I work at a fitness company.  Oh Lord.

That sounds good!

I made some Peanut Chicken Skewers With Chili Mayonnaise for a party the other day and totally spaced on using Greek yogurt instead of mayo  ::)

Just heard about this product and that it is very good.  Profile looks good. Seems to have limited distribution.  Whole Foods carries it.  Looking forward to trying it.

This thread has been absolutely great for me, Id never tried the stuff before. Since trying the flovored varieties and a few diff brands, I agree with princess, plain chobani and add fruit or stevia. Love it

I eat regular yogurt about every night, but this thread generated a lot of curiousity on my part about greek yogurt.. unfortunately, living in South Louisiana, I never thought I would see it outside of a few specialty food stores, which I rarely shop at. my local grocery recently began stocking some of the chobani and i picked one up as soon as i saw it.. grabbed the rasberry chobani and had it last night.. it was excellent! my only regret was that i didn't buy more!! Thank you Princess!! This will definitely be a mainstay in my diet

I thought this was going to be a thread about "back-door" action >:(

Oh well.  I like the Trader Joe's brand.  I mix it with granola & chia seeds...

I am glad that just about everyone I've told about Greek yogurt (here and IRL) LOVES it.  It's becoming quite popular as of late, so it's much easier to find.  Don't be fooled though.  Dannon and Yoplait are hopping on the bandwagon and in true form they use cheap, inferior ingredients and processes like gelatin and milk from hormone treated cows. The gelatin allows them to artificially inflate the protein content. I wonder why they need to ADD vitamin D  ::)  Stick with the real, original thing - Fage, Chobani, Oikos, Brown Cow, Siggi, Trader Joes...

Sounds like a lot of people like the flavored stuff  :-\  That's okay, but just give the 0% Plain (any brand) a try.  Add your own "stuff" - see what you think.  I used to hate "plain" yogurt until I tried this.  I add fresh or frozen blueberries, a little Splenda and a smidge of peanut butter (cuz it goes with everything  :P).  The perfect snack!
