P.s. if you are an aussie and wondering which one I am talking about - it is Dairy Farmers European Yogurt - it has been awarded the winner of the Grand Dairy Awards Grand Champion Dairy Product a few years in a row.

I like Chris' better.

Yeah Chris' is damn good but it has a fatty aftertaste/feeling on the palate which I don't appreciate.

10% fat content is just a touch too much for me for yogurt I think ! (not that I eat it by the tub at a time :raz: )

...

Has anyone else noticed the nutritional information? Why does this brand of yogurt have so much more protein than any other brand I've come across?

...

It's because the water of the whey has been strained from the yogurt, which concentrates yogurt and the proteins.

In regards to the feta, I personally like it because it's moist and not dry and crumbly like alot of feta in the US marketplace. But that's just me, I prefer that type of texture.

I hadn't noticed that, although my sister once exclaimed upon opening my fridge "You have full fat yoghurt and skinny milk.. what a contradiction!"

I eat it in fairly small amounts usually. A spoonful or two with some fruit and honey is my ideal. I do cook with it too occasionally.
