There is a big difference in taste and texture between store bought and fresh made. I only make plain yogurt. If I need it to be flavored, I add what I want, after the yogurt is set.

It is good for you - but no one likes to eat something that tastes vile. Taste the fresh homemade yogurt and you will become addicted.


How does one make this perfected yogurt? Does it take long? Is there a recipe link you approve of? Do share..

Yogurt I don't mind. I like it with Indian food too.

I think this is my third post - evidently I have stronger feelings about yogurt than I thought. It used to taste better before it all became low fat.

Noosa is good. The one with the passionfruit curd is my favorite. La Petite Creme is technically just a really delicately flavored soft cheese; I like that one, too.

Me too. I despise yogurt, except the kind you get with Indian food. THAT is delicious!

Me three! Can't stand the yogurts found in the grocery store, but give me a papadum and a bowl of yogurt at an Indian restaurant and I'm happy!

I pretty much dislike all sweet yogurts -- whether they are the dannon/Yoplait with "fruit" types or the frozen yogurt type of things you get at pinkberry and stores like that; I hate the tangy/sour taste of pinkberry, no matter what flavor.

I also like the yogurt that you get with Middle Eastern or Indian food (raita for Indian; no idea what it's called for Middle Eastern); that leads me to believe I like the "salted" yogurts -- probably bc salty/garlicky/tangy is a better combination that sweet and tangy (at least to me).

Oh good, our China Study brainwashed poster is here!

I just cannot develop a taste for the tartness of unsweetened yogurt (even with honey or jam stirred in), and once you're eating the dessert yogurts, what's the point?

I'm with you. I don't like any kind of tangy sweet flavor like that. Yogurt, cheesecake, cream cheese frosting. All yuck to me. I can literally count on my fingers the number of foods that I don't like, but yogurt is probably the top. I can't even stand the smell.

I hope you just got some chocolate ice cream instead. There are no health benefits to dessert-flavored yogurts and I'm baffled by the amount of people who think eating Light n' Fit yogurt is somehow good for them.

I don't care for yogurt either, but have realized the probiotics help me a lot. The trick for me is to pretend it is sour cream - so use plain, and top soups or tacos with it in a savory way, not sweet.
