frozen yogurt = regular yogurt???

Does anyone know if yogurt and frozen yogurt are interchangeable? I dislike the texture of yogurt but I do like the frozen stuff.

I am a frozen yogurt lover, and TCBY really gives a fat free option with their no fat no sugar added soft and hand scooped yogurts. You can find all the info at TCBY.com - Frozen Yogurt, Cakes & Deep Dish Pies, smoothies, and Tasty Treats, you are looking at 90-120 cals per half cup serving.

Have you tried the strained Greek yogurts that are popping up in grocery stores lately? The two brands I can find out here in WA are Fage and Oikos - they each have ~20g Protein per half cup, are pretty low in carbs, and their texture is quite different from typical yogurt. I like the 0% Fage, but their 2% variety isn't much higher in fat and I've heard it has a better texture.

There's another brand in our area - I think it's Greek Gods? - but it doesn't have the high Protein so I haven't tried it yet.

I like mine mixed half and half with Kashi GoLean and/or Fiber One Cereal and a little honey.

Frozen yogurt is to yogurt what ice cream is to milk. Which is to say a) it's not yogurt and :eek: it's not really that healthy.

For example:

Yogurt with fruit, no sugar added, 6 oz. has:

100 calories

Fat 0 gm

Cholesterol <5mg

Sodium 85 mg

Potassium 250 mg

Total carbs 19 g

Sugars 14 g

Protein 5g

Calcium 20% of daily value

Frozen yogurt will vary depending on the brand and flavor, but Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia (which I happen to have in my fridge) for a 1/2 cup serving has:

160 calories

Total fat 3g

Saturated 2g

Cholesterol 15mg

Sodium 60mg

Total carbs 31g

Dietary Fiber 1g

Sugars 20g
