[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, the number of PPs who think Go-Gurt is standard yogurt is pretty depressing. I've made both brownies and *plain whole* yogurt from scratch and there really is no contest in terms of sugar, but don't take my word for it:

Here are the stats on a serving of whole plain yogurt: http://caloriecount.about.com/calories-yogurt-plain-whole-milk-8-i1116?size_grams=113.0

Here are the stats on a standard brownie: http://caloriecount.about.com/calories-brownie-i21027

No one is arguing this.  However this may be what you, the parent, are serving your child, this is not what most daycares will serve the children unless the parent brings it in.  If you are going to rely on the daycare to provide the food, they are likely to use processed yogurt which includes fruit.  Even the low-fat, fat-free, or "light" yogurts have a lot of added sugars.  Very few daycares will serve plain whole yogurt made from scratch.  You can't compare what a parent makes for a child to eat with what a daycare is likely to buy to serve unless you provide the snack yourself, in which case, it defeats the purpose of complaining about what the daycare is serving, since they aren't serving it to your child.[/quote]

Other than dcum, I have never heard of anyone making yogurt from scratch.[/quote]

My mom did, all the time.  She also baked bread from scratch (no bread machine either), and I'm 32 so not that old.[/quote]
