Learn to avoid these words, and you will be a master at choosing yogurt

The "yogurt" you often buy may be fake

Or it may be very high in sugar (although very sour)

Pay attention to these points and avoid pitfalls when buying yogurt

What are Greek yogurt and Icelandic yogurt?

Greek yogurt originated in Greece, and Icelandic yogurt originated in Iceland. Both are yogurts that have had their whey removed (Icelandic yogurt is removed more thoroughly) and have a thicker texture.

In the process of removing whey, some sugar and fat will also be filtered out, so these two types of yogurt usually have higher protein and lower lactose content, which are more suitable for people with lactose intolerance. However, due to the influence of process and raw materials, Greek yogurt and Icelandic yogurt are more expensive than traditional yogurt.

When purchasing, pay attention to the type of these two yogurts - fermented milk (yogurt) or flavored fermented milk (yogurt). Flavored fermented milk (yogurt) may contain sugar, jam and other substances (you can refer to the above article for review). Then pay attention to the ingredient list and nutritional composition table, and choose products with higher protein content and lower sugar content.
