Never said there was.  I've never tried that type but have hears from some others that it isn't all that great and they can't understand what all the hype and push for it is.

I find Greek Yogurt very appealing, when I replace it with ice cream, Hershey's choclate syrup, and Cool Whip!

Yuck - Yogurt reminds me of creamy baby food. I prefer puddy instead. LOL!

 

Although yogurt does have its benefits healthwise.

Don't take in any of the "Y" family, Greek or otherwise.  Raised on red meat, fish and 'taters, with some corn, peas and beans tossed in.  And I have the stents and blocked arteries to prove it.  At 63, way to late to change me now.

Greek Yogurt is great for your gut. After kidney cancer surgery, my doctor told me to eat one every day for a couple of weeks to restore the digestive enzymes. I am 69 yrs. old and can see 70 if I look sideways. I have a yogurt every other day. Another great benefit is the cleaned yogurt cups. Those things are great for holding small parts after cleaning, mixing paints in, etc. Love my Greek Yogurt.

Good greek yogurt can taste like a good sour cream, whole milk only.

Plain yogurt is nasty. The flavored ones I'll eat when there's nothing else in the fridge. But any kind of Greek yogurt that I've tried is too sour for me.

From what I read, when yogurt is reduced in fat content (under 0.5%), they tend to have other sugar forms or 'additives' added to make them more tasteful, which in turn makes them even less healthy.  So if you are looking to reduce fat in your diet, better off looking at another food group.

Not to mention it has more calories than regular yogurt.

I agree. My dad, following hip surgery which included a strong antibiotic regime, experienced debilitating diarrhea that left him exhausted with no relief in sight. However, after starting a yogurt intake, it was no longer than 24 hours before things were back to normal. Yogurt reestablished a gut environment that normalized the transit time of food. Now if only I can find a way to break down those pesky corn kernels before they hit the porcelain...
