I LOVE this stuff! I can find it in almost every supermarket, but I generally buy it at Trader Joe's where it's cheaper. I get the 0% fat and sweeten it with a teaspoon of preserves. That way I can have whatever flavor I want, and limit the sweetness to the point I like.
It's thick and dense, and really filling. I can't say enough good things about it!

City: Athens Greece (I'm English though) | I live in Athens Greece and so this yoghurt is everywhere...not much help I know! Only problem for me is that I can't stand the stuff :phanvan The Greeks eat it with honey drizzled in the middle - not good for us anyway- but I just don't like the texture of it. Total is one of the better brands, some of them here are even thicker than that!

I just wanted to say thanks for posting about this Greek yogurt! I found some at Trader Joe's and it is AWESOME! Not to mention it doesn't have a bunch of chemicals in it. I had Greek yogurt with strawberries, a little bit of granola, and some splenda. Honestly, it was SO GOOD!

I've seen it at A & P, Shop Rite, Pathmark, any of the big ones around here carry it.

You probably wont find it in your normal chain stores, but definately the health food stores. There's also an italian one that comes in glass jars that has that sour taste (but it might be whole fat). I like the total yogurt with the honey, but that naturally defeats the purpose, lol. It's too tart for me by itself, but maybe I'll try it with some splenda like someone suggested. :)
