Last night I tried So Delicious Dairy Free Yogurt:

It was CInnamon Bun flavor! I liked it a lot. The consistency was slightly different from normal yogurt – less creamy and more like custard. The flavor was very good, but a bit sweeter than I would have liked (isn’t everything though? I like being able to add my own sweeteners). Bobby had a bite and he liked it too. We both normally dislike soy yogurts, but this one is a keeper! I found them for $0.99/each at Whole Foods.

Nutritionals (per 6 ounce serving): 160 kCal, 2.5 grams fat, 29 grams carbs (3g fiber, 24g sugar), 6 grams protein, 30% Calcium, 4% Iron, 30% Vitamin B12, 30% Magnesium.

Today I tried another new kind of yogurt – Stonyfield’s YoBaby in Apple flavor:

There are a few reasons to like YoBaby. First, it’s whole milk yogurt, which I have been obsessed with recently. Second, it’s in perfectly portion-controlled containters! The only issue I have with whole milk yogurt is that it’s so addicting that I will accidentally eat too much of it right from the tub – which could lead to some too-tight clothing and a sore tummy.

Nutritionals for YoBaby Apple (per 4 ounce cup): 110 kCal, 4 grams fat, 14 grams carbs (0g fiber, 13g sugar), 4 grams protein, 6% Vitamin A, 20% Calcium.

Now that I read the nutritionals I kind of wish I had gotten YoBaby Plain, because that’s a lot of sugar (I’m not used to flavored yogurts)! But I really like this flavor. I got 2 mixed 6-packs (Apples & Blueberry, Vanilla & Banana) and they all have pretty much the same nutritionals. I hope Bobby will help me eat them, because he recently discovered the joy of yogurt with granola and other crunchy toppings.

I have an exciting announcement that I will post… later tonight? Tomorrow? It has to do with yoga
