I never thought I would be enjoying, much less eating Greek yogurt, but I am. Years ago I would never even go near yogurt; just couldn't get past the texture and the fact that it's a live culture. Now, why would anyone want to put a live culture in their bodies? That was before I learned that yogurt is the 'friendly' culture and is very healthy for you. Plus, years ago when I joined WW, it made for a good breakfast. I have to admit; it took some getting used to but I forced myself to choke it down and eventually I grew to like it.
And now is the era of Greek yogurt. Everyone has it out there such as the name brands of Yoplait, Dannon and others. Daughter, Becky, introduced me to Greek yogurt when she joined WW and lost a ton of weight. Ok, so now we had to get used to another 'texture' which took a while again, but learned to like it. However, I really only enjoy the OIKOS. I've tried the other brands but can't get past their textures. OIKOS seems creamier plus the taste of their plain vanilla or honey is really good. I don't like my yogurt with fruit. If I'm going to eat fruit, I'll cut up an apple or peel an orange or banana. However, I DO like it with a little granola on the top. And take it from me.....don't spend the extra money on the yogurt cartons that come with a topping. Just go buy a box of granola or low fat crunchy cereals they have on the shelf. It's cheaper and one box lasts like forever.
If you haven't tried Greek yogurt yet, do so.....you may like it.
