I've never been much of a yogurt eater, however after becoming completely addicted to Oikos Greek Yogurt,
I have found myself buying Greek yogurt time and time again. The
texture, and the fact that the yogurt is not as sugary makes it such a
great treat. Most yogurts are just far too sugary tasting, and I never
liked sugary yogurts.
Oikos was the usual Greek yogurt brand I'd pick up, but recently I
came across another name brand of Greek Yogurt called Chobani Greek
Yogurt. Naturally I wanted to give this brand a try to see how it would
compare to Oikos.
I picked up blueberry flavor, because when eating yogurt blueberry tends to be the only flavor my tongue and my mind agree on.
Chobani Greek Yogurt comes in a very similar yogurt bowl like Oikos
Greek Yogurt. The colors are even very similar, so if you don't look
closely you could walk out with the wrong brand by accident, seeing that
they are placed next to one another on shelves at grocery stores.
Not that picking up the wrong brand would make a difference though,
because after actually taste testing the yogurt I came to the conclusion
that they are nearly 100% the exact same. In fact I'd swear the same
person made both brands.
Like Oikos, Chobani has that same creamy texture, with the blueberry
fruit on the bottom. The thicker texture is absolutely delicious, and
tastes much less sugary than a non Green yogurt. The blueberries at the
bottom are very fresh, and add just the right amount of blueberry
flavoring, without overwhelming the actual taste of the Greek yogurt,
which is delicious by itself.
The creamy texture is so good that it actually reminds me more of a
cream pie filling, than it does a healthy snack alternative.
Chobani has 0 fat, and 0 trans fat. It does contain 20g of sugar, 14g
of protein, 1g of fiber, and 20g carbohydrates. Basically it is much
healthier for you than your average runny textured sugar induced yogurt!
Overall:
Although I love, love, love Chobani Greek Yogurt, I find it to be a
near replica of Oikos, which is actually just a few cents cheaper. So
naturally I'd have to recommend you pick up Oikos, because you will save
yourself a few cents, and even a few dollars if you buy these
regularly.
Chobani Greek Yogurt came to around $2.49 per container, prices may
vary though depending on where you live. To me though, the price is
pretty high end for what I normally pay for regular yogurts, which is
around 79 cents. The price though is well worth it.
Recommended?
Definitely. Do make sure though you buy the cheaper one, because their
prices may vary, and both brands taste nearly the exact same, so really
if you can save yourself some money, go for it.
Those who usually don't eat yogurt, will even love Chobani Greek Yogurt.
