Greek Yogurt weird question



Recommended Posts

I have this weird texture issue thing where I can't even look at the Water that forms at the top of sour cream (gagging just thinking about it).

The Greek yogurts I have bought have all had this same water substance on top. Does anyone know of a brand that doesn't separate like this?

I have used multiple brands and they all separate. I'm with Chelenka, if you find a brand that doesn't separate I wouldn't want to eat it ;)

I agree with what everyone else has said - it's supposed to separate like that :)

I love my Dannon Greek Yogurt.....I live on the vanilla fat free with only 80 calories per container. I put a cup of fruit, usually blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries with a little granola (about a 1/4 cup) and it is a great Breakfast or snack for around 250 calories. It's awesome

I'm with you on the liquid being gross. I have started shaking my little yogurt cup before I open it, problem solved. :)

I tried this because of the lower calories and I think it is absolutely gross. I tried the strawberry cheesecake one and it had no flavor a tasted like artificial sweetener. My dog wouldn't even eat it lol. Zoi is my all time favorite but I do like chobani as well.

If the yogurt even starts to get warm it separates even more. I bring one to work in my lunch pak and this doesnt keep it cold enough and it separates like crazy. So now I put it in the fridge at work. Also 10-15 min in the freezer will tighten it all back up again so you dont see the separation and it's nice and chilled :)

I do like Fage a lot - it does separate but it has a texture and flavor similar to sour cream.

It doesn't bother me, I just stir it back in. But if it did, I'd have a hard time eating it.

I've started adding a couple teaspoons of Peanut Butter, equal, and a little sugar free Torani caramel Syrup to my Fage 0%, and I LOVE it!

I get grossed out by the liquid too. I eat it anyway.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
