I have just discovered it! It is so creamy, it's almost like cream cheese! Love it!

Chobani is made just a few miles over the hill from me. They bought up the old Breyers factory and literally turned it into a city of sorts. You drive over some country roads, crest the top of the hill and think you're looking down on Emerald City! They thankfully are providing many jobs in our economically depressed county. They give back in many ways so it's all good.

I love Oikos Black Cherry best. But also like the Latte. I tried Chobani, but did not care for it.

My favourite yogurt is Liberte Mediterranee yogurt. It comes in peach passionfruit, orange mango, black cherry, strawberry, mocha, lemon, black raspberry, pineapple and coconut. Sometimes we mix the pineapple with the coconut which makes Pina Colada. It is so good...

I do that, too. I also find it works really well on baked potatoes. And my dog likes it so I usually give him a dollop on his kibble as a treat.

Count me in - love the Greek yogurt! I had seen a profile on Rock Center (on NBC) about the founder of Chobani - what an interesting story! It's here if you want to take a look:

Amazing that this guy convinced everyone to love Greek yogurt!

I tried the Okios Toasted Coconut last night, it was good but it has 4 grams of fat per serving. I end to eat a lot of yogurt since I don't drink milk. I need the calcium but not the added fat. So strike Toasted Coconut yogurt off my list...lol

Tomorrow when we do major grocery shopping. I will stock up on Yoplait Greek yogurt as well as the plain version.

I like the Whole Foods house brand, but it's true that the "fruit" does add calories, since it is more like a jelly or preserve than plain fruit.

Chasing Hawk, with that reaction to mangos, I bet you are also very allergic to poison ivy! They are plant cousins.

Yes I am! And I did not know that. Thanks for the info.
