Review: Yoplait Greek 100 Whips! Coconut Macaroon Greek Yogurt Mousse

I'm not going to lie, it's been almost two weeks since I've physically typed out a review and quite frankly, I haven't missed it much.  Not sure that bodes well for the future of the blog, but I will be popping in periodically to submit review of new products that I find in the store.  Today's review adds to the exponentially large Yoplait review catalog as I'll take a look at this Yoplait Greek 100 Whips! Coconut Macaroon Greek Yogurt Mousse that I was able to pick up at Kroger for $1.00.  Each container is a fluffy and light 4.0 ounces and is packed in with 100 calories and nine grams of protein.  It's also gluten free.

Review: LUNA Protein Berry Greek Yogurt Bar

LUNA was a big start of review in the early days of the blog and over time, I've cranked out seventeen past reviews (as of this writing).  Primarily designed for women, I've decreed that it's okay for men to eat them too, thus I happily eat them. A recent trip to Kroger allowed me to discover one of their new (to me) flavors and I snatched up this LUNA Protein Berry Greek Yogurt Bar for $1.25.  The bar itself clocks in at 1.59 ounces and 170 calories with twelve grams of protein. It's gluten free for those that are so inclined as well.

Review: Gatorade G Series Prime Honey Oat Fuel Bar

I frequently see Gatorade's foray into nutrition bars sitting on the shelves of my store.  I've had varying success with them in past reviews, but it seems like the flavors never change.  Upon a recent browsing of Kroger, I happened to notice a flavor of bar that I hadn't seen before, so that led me to snatch up this Gatorade G Series Prime Honey Oat Fuel Bar for today's review.  This bar clocks in at 2.1 ounces and packs in 220 calories and five grams of protein.  Unlike a lot of their previous products that I've reviewed, this bar is neither huge in size nor is it a huge calorie bomb.  Basically, this abandons everything I've come to expect from Gatorade bars as this one is certainly more modest.

Review: Chobani flip Coffee Break Bliss Greek Yogurt

Sometimes when you buy too much of a particular manufacturer's products, you end up with situations like the one I had today where I'm writing a review of a Chobani product on the day that a previous Chobani review gets posted to the blog.  That's happened countless times, but it never ceases to amuse me for some reason.  Digression aside, today's review allows me to hit up this 5.3 ounce cup of Chobani flip Coffee Break Bliss Greek Yogurt that I was able to pick up at Kroger for $1.29.  With in the split section cup are 190 calories and twelve grams of protein.  It's also kosher and vegetarian, if you are interested.

Review: Dannon Light & Fit Greek Crunch Caramel Fudge Pretzel Greek Yogurt

I've already opined on the seeming lack of creativity from major manufacturers before in rolling out new products, so I'll spare you (and myself) from regurgitating that take again.  Instead, I'll just dive into another Dannon review of one of their new products as I take a look at a spin on their normal Light & Fit line of Greek yogurts with this single serving cup of Dannon Light & Fit Greek Crunch Caramel Fudge Pretzel Greek Yogurt that I was able to pick up at Kroger for $1.29.  The cups, with mix-ins, packs in 5.0 ounces of yogurt/pretzel mix and that mix racks up 130 calories and eleven grams of protein.  The yogurt is fat free, but mixing in the fudge covered pretzels adds just a tiny bit of fat to the entire package.

Review: Blue Isle Mediterranean French Onion Yogurt Spread

So here we are.  The final Blue Isle review out of the batch of free products that Blue Isle so graciously sent me to try out.  There were a couple of flavors that I didn't review, but this 8.0 ounce container of Blue Isle Mediterranean French Onion Yogurt Spread will be the fourth and last that I take a look at (unless they send me more).  They've been successful so far, so I was very anxious to give this one a try.  Before I jump into the review, I'll get the nutritional stuff out of the way:  this one has eight servings that are each sized as two tablespoons.  Within each of those servings are 70 calories and one gram of protein.

Review: Dannon Light & Fit Greek Crunch Strawberry Cheesecake Greek Yogurt

I think it would be great to work at these major manufacturing companies.  I think their Research and Development departments mainly consist of sitting around and looking at their old products and then "developing" new and interesting ways to package them.  It's obvious Dannon is this way because today's review is of something I've reviewed before, albeit with a very slight twist.  With that, I snatched up this 5.0 ounce container of Dannon Light & Fit Greek Crunch Strawberry Cheesecake Greek Yogurt at Kroger for $1.29 and within it are 130 calories and eleven grams of protein.  So, it's definitely light and it's definitely fit.

Review: Blue Isle Mediterranean Strawberry Yogurt Spread

Today is once again me plowing through another Blue Isle review as I was given several samples to try out.  So far, I've been struck by the absolutely utility of these as they can be used as spreads, dips, etc.  Today's review is no different as this 8.0 ounce container of Blue Isle Mediterranean Strawberry Yogurt Spread can be used for many purposes as well.  Something I found interesting about this was that at the time of this review writing, the Blue Isle website lists this as its newest flavor.  Seems odd that a company would take so long to create a product based on one of the most common fruits.  Anyway, this container has eight two tablespoon-sized servings and each serving is 60 calories with one gram of protein each.  As with yogurt in general, this spread is also high in probiotics.

Review: Chobani flip Sriracha Mango Greek Yogurt

I mentioned in my most recent Chobani review that there were some peculiar flavors jumping off the shelves at me at the store.  Peculiar because they just seemed like odd combinations.  Well, today's container of this Chobani flip Sriracha Mango Greek Yogurt is another one of those seemingly peculiar flavor combinations.  Sweet and spicy or sweet and salty or all of the above...I'm not quite sure.  What I do know is Sriracha is spicy/hot and it seems odd to mix it with sweet mangoes.  What I also know is that this container is 5.3 ounces and has 190 calories and twelve grams of protein packed into it.  It's also all natural, kosher and vegetarian.  I think this one set me back about $1.25 at Kroger.

Review: Yoplait Greek 100 Whips! Salted Caramel Greek Yogurt Mousse

These Whips! products have been popping up in the dairy case at my local grocery stores with increasing frequency and I've been knocking the off with reviews as they've been popping up.  Today's review is of a new flavor that has popped into the case (and Yoplait's product line) in this single serving cup of Yoplait Greek 100 Whips! Salted Caramel Greek Yogurt Mousse.  I was able to get this one at Marsh as a freebie (lucky me!), but it would ordinarily be in the $1.00ish range.  The cup itself is a fluffy 4.0 ounces (same size cup as the other Greek yogurt products, but lighter contents) and contains 100 calories and nine grams of protein.

Review: Blue Isle Mediterranean Spicy Vegetable Yogurt Spread

I mentioned in a previous review that representatives of Blue Isle sent me some samples of their flavors to try out.  Today's review is another one of those samples.  Like all of their products, Blue Isle proclaims that these can be used in smoothies, dips, spreads, mayo replacements, etc., so that's how I'm going to think of this 8.0 ounce container of  Blue Isle Mediterranean Spicy Vegetable Yogurt Spread.  There's eight servings in each container and each serving is two tablespoons that will measure out to 70 calories per serving.  The advertise the probiotic qualities of this front and center on the lid, so I guess I should point that out too.  Hooray for probiotics!

Review: Blue Isle Mediterranean Blueberry Yogurt Spread

The free sample gravy train has been running pretty hard for me over the past couple of months and for me (and possibly the readers), that is a good thing.  It gives me a variety of different things to eat and also review.  Today's review is another product off of that free sample gravy train as I'm looking at this container of Blue Isle Mediterranean Blueberry Yogurt Spread.  Now, everyone is familiar with flavored cream cheese (well, almost everyone), so this is a spin on that with the spread being made from yogurt as opposed to cream cheese.  What's also unique about this is that Blue Isle advertises this as being able to be used in spreads, dips, smoothies (?!), replacements in recipes for mayo, etc.  It's a very versatile product.  A container of this is 8.0 ounces and within that container are eight servings, each measuring out to about two tablespoons.  Each serving packs in 60 calories and a gram of protein.

Review: Chobani flip Chipotle Pineapple Greek Yogurt

Every now and then, I encounter a product that just completely knocks me off guard.  Today's review is one of those products because I would have NEVER expected a Greek yogurt to have both chipotle and pineapple as the core flavors, especially a Chobani product since most of theirs that I've reviewed have been of the sweet variety.  And quite honestly, I was scared to grab this container of Chobani flip Chipotle Pineapple Greek Yogurt out of the dairy case (there's another one that is an even stranger combination that I'll review later).  I guess curiosity overpowered my fears though and that's why we are here today.  This container is packed with 5.3 ounces of Greek yogurt and mix-ins and has 190 calories and twelve grams of protein.

Review: Chobani Simply 100 Crunch Blueberry Cookie Crumble Greek Yogurt

Another day, another Chobani product.  Well, maybe it just feels that way since I bought several all in the same shopping trip.  Anyway, today's review is of a new product that I picked up for $1.25 at my local Kroger.  This Chobani Simply 100 Crunch Blueberry Cookie Crumble Greek Yogurt clocks in at a diminutive 4.2 ounces and packs in 100 calories with ten grams of protein.  It's also all natural, kosher and vegan.  Pretty brief intro today, but's all I've got to say for now since I can't come up with anything particularly creative.  Call it Chobani fatigue.

Review: Chobani Simply 100 Crunch Mango Cone Crisp Greek Yogurt

So here we go.  The empire of Chobani continues to expand.  I've mentioned it before, but it never ceases to amaze me...when I started this blog, Chobani was a cute little upstart.  In that 4+ years, they've become a powerhouse with multiple product lines spanning the yogurt section of the refrigerator at the grocery store.  It's also helped make Greek yogurt mainstream and there's so much Greek yogurt out there now compared to four years ago that it's insane when I really step back and think about it.  Today's Chobani Simply 100 Crunch Mango Cone Crisp Greek Yogurt is the product of one of those new product lines.  It's a smallish 4.2 ounces and has 100 calories and ten grams of protein.  As with all Chobani products, it's also all natural.

Review: Quaker Quinoa Yogurt, Fruit & Nut Granola Bars

I'll admit that I've been a little slow to get this new (it was at one time) Quaker product into my review catalog.  I've got a pretty good reason though...they've never been at what I feel is a fair price.  So, on a recent trip to Marsh, I found them at a very fair price (on clearance) and I know I had to snatch up a five of these Quaker Quinoa Yogurt, Fruit & Nut Granola Bars for a much delayed review.  Typically, these run in the $3.00-$4.00 range for a box (at Kroger), but let's just say that I got these at a price substantially lower than that, as the remnants of the clearance tag on the front of the box will infer.  Anyway, each bar in the box is 1.23 ounces and has 150 calories and two grams of protein.  These bars are designed to be snacks, so they aren't large from a calorie, weight or protein perspective.

Review: Yoplait Plenti Black Cherry Plentiful Greek Yogurt

I'm going to jump ahead a little bit as I tackle yet another Yoplait Plenti review with something that really focuses on what you'll see in the photo after the jump.  Apparently Yoplait (General Mills) has decided to join the "Keep Calm and ______" movement and add the tagline to the underside of top of their yogurt containers.  I can't tell you how insane that drive me.  The "Keep Calm and Carry On" slogan has an interesting history, but some marketer took it and used it for other purposes.  Then other marketers thought this was a good idea and here were are today with that slogan spread EVERYWHERE and way overused.  It drives me insane to the point where it actually makes me angry and I rant on a food blog about it where no one cares.  All over a goofy little slogan.  And...wait...I'm just going to stop here before I go off the deep end and get into the review.  Anyway, I picked up this single serving container of Yoplait Plenti Black Cherry Plentiful Greek Yogurt at Kroger for $1.00 and it comes in at 5.3 ounces packed in with 140 calories and twelve grams of protein.

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: Yoplait Plenti Blueberry Plentiful Greek Yogurt

I mentioned in my last Yoplait Plenti review that these cups of Greek yogurt seemed like they were something that had been out forever and that's why I had steered away from reviewing them, figuring that I already had.  As I mentioned, it turns out that they were new-ish and I was just dreaming that they had been reviewed before.  So, since I've neglected them in the past, I figured it was time to plow through with another review as I grabbed this Yoplait Plenti Blueberry Plentiful Greek Yogurt off the shelves of Kroger for $1.00.  It's 5.3 ounces and is packed with 140 calories and twelve grams of protein.

Review: Yoplait Plenti Strawberry Plentiful Greek Yogurt

So, mixing oats in your Greek yogurt is apparently the big new thing in the Greek yogurt war.  I've seen several different manufacturers doing it and while I've reviewed plenty of Yoplait products here before, I've never taken a look at their foray into this battle.  That leads me to today's review of this single serving cup of Yoplait Plenti Strawberry Plentiful Greek Yogurt that I was able to pick up for free via a digital coupon in the Kroger app.  This one ordinarily runs about a dollar-ish at it's regular price.  Anyway, this comes in at 5.3 ounces and is loaded up with 140 calories and twelve grams of protein.
