Astro's Balkan Style Natural Yogurt

[rybread]

Hey guys, I know yogurt is such an iffy thing - I don't have access to low carb yogurt, but I've heard you all say good things about 'Greek' yogurt. I went to the grocery store today, and found Astro's "Balkan Style Natural Yogurt" and was wondering how it sounded to you all, as it was the closest to 'Greek' yogurt I could find!

Ingredients: Milk ingredients, active bacterial cultures.

Re: Astro's Balkan Style Natural Yogurt

folk are talking about enjoying the taste of greek yogurt not the legality on Atkins of it. You can add yogurt on the OWL rung 2 fresh dairy rung but you are limitied to 5 net carbs no matter what kind you have. Some folk can handle it in their Atkins OWl and some folk can't and need to wait for premaintnenance. Be careful and watch for any cravings or changes in your weight as you test it out.

Thanks 2big. I'm going into my third week on the dairy rung, as we speak, so I guess now is the time to try it out. Thanks for the tip about cravings, etc - I'll be sure to keep an eye out and see how my body handles it!

Re: Astro's Balkan Style Natural Yogurt

remember this is a new to you on Atkins food so you need to not have it more then 3 times the first week you have it and to watch for any cravings and stuff. Once you are sure you can handle it you can have it daily if you want from then on.

I've used it in the past, but not recently. Not because I didn't like it or anything - just because I don't NEED it, and I'm not entirely certain most of the time lately what I want to eat for breakfast, so I've not purchased it.

I like Astro's Balkan Style. It's one of the lowest carb content ones I can get around here. I like the tangy taste - don't care for sweetness as it can trigger the consumption of more sweetness.
