Review: Chobani Coffee Blended Greek Yogurt
I'll admit that I've been hesitant to add the subject of today's review to my Chobani review catalog because I'm just not a fan of the flavor in food products (big fan of the drink). There's been several instances on the blog where my prejudices against coffee have been proven wrong, but there's also been other occasions where I've been proven right. On a recent trip to Meijer, I finally decided to get over my fear of this cup of Chobani Coffee Blended Greek Yogurt and pick it up for $1.00 to review. The measurements of the cup itself include 5.3 ounces, 160 calories and twelve grams of protein. It's also all natural, Gluten Free, Kosher and Vegetarian as well, so it's got all of that going for it. Now, will it have the coffee going for it in a pleasing way? I guess that's what I'm here to find out!

Review: Chobani Cinnamon Pear Blended Greek Yogurt
I'll be the first to admit that I haven't had a lot of experience in my life eating pears. Not because I dislike them or anything, but because it's just one of those fruits that never has really been in my house as either a child or adult. So, when Chobani released a limited batch Greek Yogurt that included pears and cinnamon, which I have eaten a ton of, I was kinda curious to add another review to the Chobani collection. So, I picked up this single serving container of Chobani Cinnamon Pear Blended Greek Yogurt at Meijer for $1.09 and each 5.3 ounce cup is made up of 140 calories and twelve grams of protein. It's also got 2% milkfat and is all natural, gluten free, kosher and vegetarian, so there is all that as well.

Review: Chobani Plum Blended Greek Yogurt
Bizarrely, I've decided to crave yogurt, Greek or otherwise. Since I write this blog, I tend to not to like to eat the same flavor twice since it seems like such a "wasted opportunity" for me, meaning that I'm not going to eat a flavor of yogurt unless I can get a review out of it. I've only got so many calories I can consume! So, I love the fact that Chobani continually rolls out products for me to review and another one of those roll outs has led today's review of a limited batch product in this Chobani Plum Blended Greek Yogurt. Now, I don't eat a lot of plums and quite frankly, when I think of them, I think of old people. Not exactly a great start, but I'll try just about anything once. Anyway, this single cup of Greek yogurt was picked up at Marsh for $1.25 and clocked in at the usual 5.3 ounces and packed in 140 calories and twelve grams of protein. It's also 2% milkfat, so it's a bit fattier than the typical zero fat yogurt.

Review: Chobani Concord Grape Greek Yogurt
I've done a lot of Chobani reviews in the past and some of them have focused on limited batches. Most of those limited batches disappear fairly quickly because they truly are limited. The source of today's review must not have been too limited because I've seen it on the shelves of my local grocery stores for quite some time. Since it had been there for a while and I figured it could be at least somewhat still timely, I grabbed a container of this Chobani Concord Grape Greek Yogurt via a free coupon at my local Marsh. It would typically retail in the $1.25 range. This 5.3 ounce cup packs 140 calories and twelve grams of protein, so it's not a true belly buster, which is nice. I love snacking on grapes too, so I was quite curious about this one going into the review.

Review: Siggi's Skyr Coconut Icelandic-Style Yogurt
Today is not the first time that I've looked at a Siggi's yogurt products, so I'll spare the back story about why it's Icelandic, etc. It is fairly interesting to learn though if you want to learn about a different method of making yogurt. Anyway, I was wandering through my local Meijer recently and I noticed that they added a new Siggi's flavor to the dairy case at the store and that led me to pick up this single serving cup of Siggi's Skyr Coconut Icelandic-Style Yogurt for $1.50. Each cup is 5.3 ounces and has 170 calories and thirteen grams of protein. In my prior reviews, I've found Siggi's yogurt to be extremely creamy, but essentially flavorless. I'm hoping that's not the case again today.

Review: Chobani Pumpkin Spice 2% Blended Greek Yogurt
I had this conversation on Twitter several weeks back, but at what point do we say that the pumpkin spice flavor profile has jumped the shark and become overplayed? I like the pumpkin flavor profile as much as anyone have certainly eaten A LOT of pumpkin products (beer, smoothies, ice cream, etc.), but even as a lover of that flavor, I'm starting to get a little tired of seeing this stuff all over the place. One could almost argue that pumpkin is becoming the new vanilla because it's popping up everywhere. Anyway, Chobani is another one to fall victim to the craze as today's review adds to my review collection as I take a look at one of their limited batch offerings in this Chobani Pumpkin Spice 2% Blended Greek Yogurt that I picked up at Marsh for $1.09. Each 5.3 ounce single serving cup has 130 calories and twelve grams of protein.

Review: Chobani Apricot on the Bottom 2% Greek Yogurt
Perhaps I'm blind, but I've never noticed a Chobani product before that has the fruit on the bottom so blatantly advertised and heaven knows that I've reviewed a lot of them. So, having never noticed that before (or perhaps it's new?), I picked up my first look at one of these types of products at Kroger recently on sale for $1.00. This 5.3 ounce cup of Chobani Apricot on the Bottom 2% Greek Yogurt comes in at 140 calories and has a hearty eleven grams of protein. It's also all natural, gluten free and kosher, if those are things that you are looking for when shopping for food products.

Review: Yoplait Greek Caramel 2% Greek Yogurt
In general, I like the way yogurt tastes, so I'm more inclined to buy it. What I don't like about yogurt is that it has expiration dates. I mention that because I do most of my shopping in splurges and buy multiple items of the same product to review and with most products, the expiration dates are so far away that it really doesn't matter. With yogurt, that's not the case and it often bugs me because I end up eating a bunch of yogurt in a short period of time and I eventually get sick of it. That's what's starting to happen to me right now as a lot of sale prices and free giveaways have gotten me to start hammering the yogurt products, Yoplait included, that I joked a bit ago about re-naming this blog to Crazy Yogurt Dude. I'm not sure why I'm whining about this year, but I guess it's my prerogative since it's my blog. Alright, with that whining off my chest, it's now time to take a look at a new flavor of Yoplait Greek yogurt with this look at a single serving cup of Yoplait Greek Caramel 2% Greek Yogurt that I picked up for $1.00 at Kroger. The cup is the mostly typical 5.3 ounces and has 150 calories and eleven grams of protein.

Review: Yoplait Greek Peaches 'n Cream 2% Greek Yogurt
The mega manufacturers keep on chugging. That is one of the givens of life and today, another one of those mega manufacturers (Yoplait) will grace this blog with yet another review and if you've been reading recently, ANOTHER yogurt review. I'm not quite tired of yogurt yet, but I can see that on the horizon. Of course, I've been eating pudding just about every day for the last four or five years, so maybe I'll never get tired of yogurt. Anyway, I picked up this cup of Yoplait Greek Peaches 'n Cream 2% Greek Yogurt on sale for $1.00 at Kroger and it's the semi-customary 5.3 ounces and has 150 calories with eleven grams of protein.

Review: Yoplait Greek Cafe Mocha 2% Greek Yogurt
I've alluded previously to the fact that this blog is getting yogurt heavy and that assault on yogurt continues once again today. Today's review adds another Yoplait product to the review catalog as I take a rare look at a yogurt that still has some milk fat in it as I look at this single serving cup of Yoplait Greek Cafe Mocha 2% Greek Yogurt. I was able to pick this one up at Kroger for $1.00 and it comes in at 5.3 ounces and is packed with a respectable 150 calories and eleven grams of protein.

Review: Chobani Watermelon Blended 2% Greek Yogurt
I remember when I first started this blog nearly three years ago (three years at the end of this month!) that Chobani was kind of the little engine that could of the Greek yogurt world. They were getting write-ups in various business magazines like Bloomberg, Forbes, etc. about how they were this small company trying to take on the monsters of the world like Dannon. Just knowing that background made my reviews of them that much more interesting (to me). Now, nearly three years later, they are no longer the little engine that could and are one of the leaders of the Greek yogurt industry as the big guys have started lining up to compete with them and also some other little guys have joined the fray to become the next Chobani. Anyway, they've gotten so big now that they've introduced limited batches and today's review is another one of those summer-related limited batches (which means it'll be gone soon) in this Chobani Watermelon Blended 2% Greek Yogurt that I found at Target for $1.19. This 5.3 ounce cup is all natural, gluten free and has 140 calories with twelve grams of protein.

Review: Chobani Pink Grapefruit Blended 2% Greek Yogurt
I don't know that I've ever mentioned on this blog before that I do NOT like shopping at Target. Maybe seeing all the red in the store makes me angry like a bull or something, but I generally try to stay away. Okay, I'm just joking. I don't go to Target because it's sort of out of the way for me and more importantly, I don't like their prices. That said, I got a recent comment in a post about a couple of Target-exclusive products and in search of those (today's review wasn't one of them), I was able to stumble across another Chobani product to review when I picked up this single serving cup of Chobani Pink Grapefruit Blended Greek Yogurt for $1.19, which isn't that bad of a price. The cup of Greek yogurt itself is 5.3 ounces and has 150 calories and twelve grams of protein. I will say that the flavor that this decided to go after intrigued me because grapefruit was one of the things that my parents were addicted to as a breakfast food growing up and there was seemingly always one in the refrigerator. I never took a like to it, so today's review will be an interesting look at how much my tastes have or have not changed since my childhood.

Review: Private Selection Raspberry Cranberry Greek Yogurt
Today's review is a biggie for me. Not because this is a monumental product or anything like that but because it ends my list of Private Selection products that I made in my initial purchasing binge of eight products at once. Whew, what a relief. Anyway, I picked this Private Selection Raspberry Cranberry Greek Yogurt up in my binge at the same $0.99 price and each cup is 5.3 ounces with 170 calories and eleven grams of protein. It's also two percent milkfat, but I'm not really sure that means anything to anyone. I know it means nothing to me. Food is food.

Review: Private Selection Amber Honey Lowfat Greek Yogurt
After my Private Selection ice cream review binge, I figured it was time to try out some of their other products. It should come as no surprise that they (Kroger) has decided to join the rest of the world's ridiculous infatuation with Greek yogurt by introducing their own new product varieties and that leads me to this container of Private Selection Amber Honey Lowfat Greek Yogurt that I picked up on sale at the aforementioned Kroger for $1.00. The dual compartment container comes in at a total of 5.3 ounces and is 200 calories with eleven grams of protein. It is two percent milkfat as well, if that means anything to any of you readers out there.

Review: Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt with Peach
One of my favorite things about the summer is the plethora of peaches that make it into the grocery stores. What I like even more, since I'm a Grade A bargain shopper, is that the prices of those peaches go way down to the point that the stores are almost giving them away. That said, it seems pretty odd that I'd want to add to my Fage Greek yogurt review series with a review of a pre-packaged peach product with this Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt with Peach single serving cup as opposed to eating something fresh, eh? Oh well, I guess that's why this blog is named like it is. Anyway, this was picked up on sale at Kroger for $1.00 as usual and each cup is 5.3 ounces with 140 calories and twelve grams of protein.

Review: Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt with Strawberry
In my prior reviews of Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt products, I've got to say that I enjoyed them quite a bit, so I expect nothing less of this Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt with Strawberry that is the subject of this review. As with the others, I picked this one up on sale at Kroger for $1.00 and it is 5.3 ounces with 140 calories and twelve grams of protein. As with the others, this is Greek yogurt WITH strawberry as opposed to strawberry flavored yogurt. Notice the distinction? I'd like to say that I figured it out quickly, but it took me until this review to finally discover that. Yeah, I'm brilliant.

Review: Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt with Cherry
After constantly looking in the store for months and never seeing it on sale, I've run into what I guess I could call a lucky streak in that Fage Greek yogurt products have been on sale quite a bit recently. That has led to some of my prior reviews and also leads to another Fage review with this review of the Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt with Cherry single serving cup. Just like the others, I picked this one up on sale at Kroger for $1.00. It comes in at 5.3 ounces and is 140 calories and twelve grams of protein.

Review: Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt with Blueberry
In my first Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt review of their Honey flavor, I was taken aback by how strong the yogurt flavor was but also how strong the honey flavor was and when mixed together, they made an excellent treat. Because I had such a wonderful experience with my first ever try at a Fage product, I was anxious to dig into this review of the Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt with Blueberry cup. I picked this one up at the same time as the last at Kroger for $1.00 and it is 5.3 ounces with 140 calories and twelve grams of protein.

Review: Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt with Honey
I don't think it is any secret at this point that I mostly only buy things when they are on sale. I hate paying full price for items and the store and will only do so if I'm insanely curious about how it tastes or I just have to have a product. Because of this, I've been resistant to purchase Fage Greek yogurt products because I've been waiting for them to go on sale. Recently, that finally happened at Kroger and I picked up this Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt with Honey for $1.00. Each single serving container is 5.3 ounces and this particular one had 190 calories and twelve grams of protein.
