Somebody please tell Jamie Lee Curtis!

it also has something like 23 grams of protein per serving, more than Trader Joe's protein shake mix.

It's not Bulgarian either. While the bacterial strain might be from around there, all of the yogurt you'll get in south-east Europe is essentially drinkable keifer and not super-thick.

Thank you. I have been vindicated.

So fucking what? It's tasty and delicious, even if mayo -> yogurt substituters are weird.

I KNEW IT! Read the amount of cholesterol on the label. It's insane, you might as well chug heavy cream.

Both the Oikos and Trader Joe's non-fat plain greek yogurt have only 80 calories, 0 grams of fat, only 6 grams of carbs, and no cholesterol. They do, however, have 230mg of potassium, 15 grams of protein, and 20% of the RDA for calcium. How is this worse than mayo? Maybe I should read the article. Sigh.

@6 - That sounds delicious.

@3,

Is there such a thing as non-drinkable kefir?

While in Turkey a few months ago I had Ayran (cold beverage of yogurt mixed with cold water and sometimes salt) for lunch almost everyday. It was pretty much all I needed though sometimes I had some fruit along with it.

Actually the non-fat yogurt contains no fat, and the regular stuff does not contain that much. I am the first to be skeptical of fads, but I'm all for "Greek" yogurt. Whether it's Greek or not, it tastes a million times better than syrupy spoogy yoplait.

the plain yogurt is also a good substitute for sour cream on pierogis or quesadillas

Please wait...
