You wan greek yogurt. So Good!
- strait 14y agoYes, Greek yogurt. Usually a lot less sugar and a lot more protein. It's can be more expensive, but the extra protein makes it more filling.
- droithomme 14y agoI agree it tastes good. But we should note that it tastes good because it has considerably more saturated fat than many other yogurts. Fage's Greek yogurt has 16 grams of saturated fat in a 7 oz package. Compare to Dannon yogurt which has 5 grams of saturated fat in an 8 ounce serving. Is Greek yogurt really better then?
- pdog 14y agoFat-free, plain Greek and regular yogurts are actually pretty good.

Disregarding your specific mention of saturated fat, grams of fat produce more calories than grams of sugar, so the Fage has 190 and the Dannon has 160. At that point (100+ yogurt cups to make a 1lb difference), it really comes down to the individual deciding/recognizing their body's own reaction to each macro-nutrients and fitting the right version in to their diet.
- JohnsonB 14y agoSaturated fat isn't bad for you.
- pebb 14y agoYes.
