So so good.

I probably get 1/3 of my calories in any given week from yogurt.
Liberte is delicious, but it's dessert. Check out the sugar content, esp on the coconut. Ditto for Noosa.

For bulk plain, it's hard to beat Fage total. Consistently creamy, doesn't separate, lasts (aka stays alive) much longer than the dates indicated on package. It has no added pectin or other thickeners.

For individual servings, I like the Siggi's stuff. More protein than sugar, decent flavors that don't taste too synthetic. But it does have added pectin, so it can be a little gritty/granular at times.

Best ever: St Benoit, sold in pottery jars in the SF Bay area. But at some point, SB switched to glass jars and started national distribution via Whole Foods and others. This glass-jar SB is nothing like the incredible original pottery jar version. It often is sitting on the WF shelves, all separated and curdled. Blech.

I find Dannon Light and Fit Greek to be the best combo of taste, calories, and protein content for me personally. Some of the other Greeks are too tart for my liking.

I eat one every day as my side with lunch. Greek yogurt is pretty much the only way to reach my daily protein goal.

I like artificial sweeteners and don't get migraines I drink Diet Coke every day, so..

I go for lowest calorie with most foods these days. Protein content being a nice perk.

Any Icelandic skyr. The best I’ve found in the US is Siggi’s.

I'm always surprised at just how difficult it is to find whole fat yogurt. You'd think society would be past the fat phobia by now.

Greek God's traditional plain is my favorite whole milk variety. Gets the fats I need in my diet and has a rich, buttery flavor. The taste is savory rather than sweet

True. My local Kroger usually has plenty of 2% Fage and fat free, but it is a rare treat to find the real deal in stock.

I've made yogurt at home by heating the milk on the stovetop/in the oven with the light on. I've also used the Instant Pot a couple times.

Instant Pot method is fairly simple, but it is just too easy to pick up the Fage for no more than I eat.
