I have fallen in love with the smooth, dense, creamy Greek yogurt that is now readily available in the grocery stores. It can be used to make frozen yogurt, or topped with berries and granola as a healthy snack. And it's guilt-free - there are 0% fat versions available!
So when our local grocery store had Yoplait Greek yogurt on sale, I stocked up. 100 calories per container, you can't go wrong, right? But I had never tried Yoplait's version. I figured it was worth a try. I was SO wrong.
Normal greek yogurt is formed by straining normal yogurt to eliminate more of the water content. However, the cheapskates at Yoplait decided to add gelatin and other additives to try and simulate the authentic Greek yogurt. Instead of doing it right, they cheated and created a chemically, dry-tasting product that left a lot wanting. I guess they just lost a customer.
(As an aside: did you know that the second ingredient in Yoplait Light yogurts is corn syrup? Really? WTF)
