new yogurt love

I LOVE this product. It's a little pricey, but I usually take two sittings to eat one. (I like to eat half at breakfast with toast and/or an egg and fruit, and the rest with a snack later in the day.) Its FAGE, but pronounced Fa-ye. It's the Greek yogurt which means it has lots of protein which is important for long-lasting, even energy (10 grams per package.) Don't forget every meal and snack needs to offer fat, protein and carb. This would be great for a kid who might not be into eggs or peanut butter for breakfast.

I love the creamy texture and flavor. It feels very rich and it fills me up, unlike most yogurt. I can also add as much of the fruit flavor as I want, so I use a little less than the full amount so it's not too sweet.

It's a little gimmicky, but the fruit ones have a little cup of fruit that you mix in. My 4 year-old thought that was neat, and since she is choosing water over milk these days, this is a nice source of calcium too. I buy the 2% so that there is some fat in there as well.

You can get them at Target, Whole Foods, Lunds and more. They are pretty pricey, so I stock up when they go on sale.

Let me know what you think!
