This is my new favorite yogurt.
Hands down.

I love yogurt. I eat it more than once a day. I insist my family eat it once a day (Rick and my two older girls aren't huge fans - but my little guys love yogurt.)

I mostly eat Greek yogurt, because it's more like the Australian stuff I grew up on - thicker with much less sugar & a "kick" that gets you in the back of your tongue. I was shopping a while ago & saw this. Icelandic?

The verdict? It tastes FANTASTIC !! The texture is a lot like Greek yogurt and the flavor is kind of subtle, it takes a few bites to hit you.


Here's what else I love -

The milk is from grass fed cows.
No aspartame.
No sucralose.
No gelatin.
No artificial colorings.
No preservatives.
No high fructose corn syrup.
No rBGH


AND - it's made in upstate New York, so for me I don't feel badly about it being transported huge distances leaving a big carbon footprint. Try it if you find it in your store.

YUM.
