Stonyfield goes Greek and low fat

I have always liked yogurt, even back in the day when if was a glumpy mess in a cup and you had to stir it up with the watery stuff on top.

Greek yogurt, a rich and creamy treat, is so far beyond those early products they are becoming a far-off memory, like the days before pantyhose. Greek yogurt now commands about one-third of the entire U.S. yogurt market.

Stonyfield, the leading producer of organic yogurt, has a new addition to its Greek yogurt line, 1.5% fat Stonyfield Organic Oikos. It’s made from 1.5% fat organic milk and is super yummy. It has a smooth, creamy texture and comes in Pineapple, Strawberry, Raspberry and traditional plain yogurt, which I think is a great substitute for sour cream.

If you are a label reader like me, you know Stonyfield is produced without any of the toxic persistent pesticides, antibiotics, artificial hormones and genetically engineered ingredients we don’t want in our tummies. But it does contain calcium, protein, Vitamin D and other goodies we do want. (Stonyfield also is committed to feeling family farms healthy and strong.)

Plus, the 1.5% fat organic Oikos is a great grab-and-go, a quick and nutritious breakfast, lunch or snack for those days when we are on the fly. And isn’t that just about every day?
