Much like the soy milk thread...just wondering if anyone has found any nice stuff around?
Most that I've tried has been pretty nasty, or really quite expensive, so given the Silk Soy yoghurt a go, which was really nice, and pretty cheap...but just wondering what else people have tried and liked?

I like Kroger's Lite one... banana mango YUM...

I know it's not yoghurt, but has anyone found anything similar to Angel Delight? I could eat gallons of that stuff

Bob

now there's a blast from school parties a past

LOL... I had a friend visit 2 weeks ago from home, and she brought me about 10 packs of it, all gone It was the low calorie one tho

Also, anyone know any Muller lite equivalent?
Ta!

Bob

yeah...that would be good...there must be some nice proper yoghurt that doesnt' leave a nasty fatty after taste out there, though that silk stuff was really nice, it's 89c for a tiny little tub....and the other stuff was $1.10, which is supposed to be better, haven't tried it yet but can hardly afford to many of those.

Without the gelatine!!!

Being the darlin lil housewife that I am, I make me own, and it's lush. Yoghurt over here is cack

Please elaborate on why US yoghurt is "cack".

Thanks.

it has a slimey fatty after taste and not a very nice consistency...well the one's I've tried over here, even the danone ones are pretty nasty....and the flavours are all either blueberry or rasphberry, there aren't any decent weird flavours.
Not to mention that there a bit expensive to be that nasty...

I like the yogurt w/ the crunchy bits on top. Some have a strawberry flavored yogurt w/ crunchy chocolate bits and I like the ones with granola on top the best. I can remember who makes these. Our local store doesn't sell them.
Also there is a new one that's supposed to be the creamiest (name escapes me again) and it's really good. Sells in 6 packs.

I would like to hear from Russ&Jayne because she makes her own at home so she can maybe better describe American yoghurt.

My main complaint about American yoghurts is that they're too sweet and have dubious colors.

So, in the end I buy plain yoghurt (organic cow, sheep or soy) and add my own flavorings like jam (made by my Mum), maple syrup, tinned fruit, etc.

Yep, I agree the majority of Amercian yoghurts are too sweet though I never buy the flavoured ones anyway as I don't like them. Generally, I don't like sweet additives in any form. I agree also with Bob that they're slimy and taste fake. I have bought organic plain yoghurt on numerous ocassions but to me it has no flavour. The consistency is also watery and a little slimy like the supermarket stuff. I think this has something to do with the pasturisation laws over here which prevent them from making thick cream etc.

I use local organic milk to make it at home. It comes out like greek yoghurt which I prefer. I don't even need to add anything sweet to it, but we do have it with fresh fruit sometimes...not the tinned stuff

Bob

well if you can find out, be nice

Bob

They do tend to be to sweet, so if I can't find anything I like, I'll get plain and mix it with honey, that's always nice...oh, and the soy silk raspberry is coloured wtih red cabbage....hmmm...
