Yes, I've tried it and like it. If you like plain, unflavored yogurt, then you will definitely like this. It's just thicker, but because of that, you can also use it almost like mayo. It tastes great mixed with berries, hot salsa, peanut butter and basically anything else that would taste good with cottage cheese.

I buy it at Trader Joe's - and I LOVE it!! It's awesome with some blueberries tossed in & some cereal (like Kashi or Grape Nuts) as a dessert - and it's much healthier.

Check out the Recipe Thread! sticky for some other alternatives for using this as a savory condiment........

I don't know what this particular brand is like as I don't think we have it in the UK, but another good one is Total 0% greek yoghurt. I saw someone mention it the other day on here so I think you get it in the US. This one has 52 cals, 0g fat, 0g sodium and 4g carbs per 100g. The good thing about this one is that it is sooooo thick!

I have it with chopped almonds in it and it's lovely!

I just began with the stuff, and its awesome! Only, I dont know how high the cholesterol content is (because its a dairy)? Also, from what I can read, it putrifies in the gut, YUK.

I am an expert greek food eater, haha!

Fage (which is pronounced fah-yeh), means eat in greek

It's great yogurt, and if your diet allows, or even as part of a cheat, try drizzling on some honey. Honey and greek yogurt is the shizzle.

Ummm, that's not necessarily a bad thing.......you have healthy bacteria that live in your body & help break that food down, ie putrification.....many yogurts actually help keep that friendly bacteria healthy.....
