Yogurt Brands
|
In the small town that I live in there is only one suitable yogurt brand at our local grocer. They don't carry my favorite brand.
There are at least 50 different brands and the closest I can find to my ideal is an okay brand, but it's lowfat.
I am not a fan of lowfat, nonfat or anything added to the yogurt.
I think yogurt should only contain milk and cultures and be regular full fat. Most people that are not from the states will tell you that American yogurt is well....American. It's nothing like the cultured diary products around the world. It's sweet, it's chalky and it has a lot of "other things" in there.
Good yogurt brands (in my opinion) are:
- full of live and active cultures (it should have the LAC seal)
- made from whole organic milk
- not full of artificial colorings, preservatives, starch or sugars
- as close to homemade yogurt as possible
When I buy yogurt whether for a quick snack when I am out and about or because we polished off all of our homemade yogurt and I need some starter, I get Stoneyfield whole milk organic with the cream on top...oh my goodness it's so good! the their vanilla is execellet too.
There are some really good Greek yogurt brands out there too that I use to like to indulge in, but since I realized how easy it is to make my own it's kind of hard to pay that much for it.
Stoneyfield is also good for yogurt making because it has 5 strains of different bacteria which I think makes a nice homemade yogurt that cultures a bit faster.
Speaking, of types of yogurt that are good for yogurt making; using a Greek yogurt for starter works sometimes, but in general they only have one or two different strains so they can take a long time.
