Yoplait Greek 100 Calories: An exercise in futility

The first time I tried Greek yogurt, I almost threw up. Nobody told me the plain tasted like sour cream. I stayed away for a long time until discovering the flavored varieties. Now, I prefer Greek yogurt to other styles. The thickness fills me up, and I'm usually good until lunch.

Yoplait Greek 100 is gluten-free. I assumed that all yogurts were, but turns out that's not the case. If you are gluten-sensitive, you should definitely stay away from yogurts that come with granola, but you probably knew that already.

Yoplait Greek 100 also prides itself that it is only 2 Weight Watchers points per cup! It's right there, on the label!

How useful! Is it though?

Everyone I know who either is or was on Weight Watchers has encyclopedic knowledge of how many points are in everything ever. I think they plant a chip in your brain at the first meeting. No one's confirmed or denied yet.

I love key lime anything, and Dannon Oikos' key lime is lick-the-cup-clean good. Not that I do that (yes I do). Yoplait's... not so much. It's definitely lime-ish, but not as decadent as Dannon. I know it's because of the reduced calories, but does it have to be so obvious? I couldn't finish it.

The black cherry was really good until I ate the awesomely
huge cherry pieces and was left with the yogurt. 

The peaches looked and tasted like those fruit cups you ate
as a kid.

Vanilla was sort of tasteless and white, not worth a photo (that's racist).

Lemon was my favorite, and the only one I finished because it froze in the back of my refrigerator. It was like a mediocre Italian ice, which is way better than a disappointing yogurt.

Mamma mia, I'm a horrible yogurt!

All flavors were runny (except the frozen lemon), and left a weird gritty feeling in my mouth.

ShopRite was out of strawberry, mixed berry and "tropical", which means people are buying and presumably enjoying this stuff. Maybe they ironically hate-eat it, who knows. I guess I'll try them some day, since that's the point of this blog, but I'm in no hurry.
