Voskos Greek Yogurt Goes Crunch

October 29, 2011 By 1 Comment

So My wordless Wednesday is so late this week, it’s on Sunday, and I’m suddenly making it not so wordless by adding a very quick review. So maybe we won’t call it a wordless Wednesday at all and just make it a review. So here is our Voskos Greek Yogurt Goes Crunch, YoGreek review.

Organically and naturally delicious. It’s nature’s perfect superfood that may help prevent diseases and boost your immune and digestive system while you savor every creamy spoonful. We each had one for breakfast. They have 140 calories and you mix in the granola yourself. I tried the strawberry crunch and liked it a lot. The kids both had the Honey Greek Yugurt crunch and ate it all. Miles said it was disgusting but I take that with a grain of salt because he ate it all. Zoe wanted more. YoGreek is the very first dual-cup Greek yogurt that offers Greek yogurt with crunchy granola for a complete meal-on-the-go. As one of the top superfoods, Greek Yogurt is a superhero and the granola its sidekick. YoGreek offers an all-inclusive tasty meal that’s convenient and fully portable with its one-of-a-kind packaging and delivery system. I think the calories are a bit on the high side, that’s my only complaint.

We received Samples.

Voskos Greek Yogurt Trip To Greece Giveaway

January 22, 2011 By 2 Comments

Voskos Greek Yogurt has been a pleasure to work with over the past year. They sent a generous donation to the tweetdrive, and they sent me quite a few Voskos Greek Yogurt products to review back in October. They care quite a bit about healthy eating providing tons of recipes and ways to use Greek Yogurt. Greek Yogurt has a different consistency than regular yogurt. It is thicker without being a custard. It also to me has a different flavor. The Voskos Greek Yogurt flavors are high in protein, contain live and active probiotic cultures and no rBST, rBGH, GMO, and are gluten Free. They can replace sour cream, mayonnaise and cream cheese in many recipes, thus lowering the amount of calories and upping the protein.

Voskos Greek Organic Yogurt Review & 30 Day Supply #Giveaway

October 9, 2010 By 311 Comments

imageEating healthy is always on my mind even when I’m failing at it. I’m always thinking of ways to prepare and give healthy options to my kids. Voskos Greek yogurts are flavorful, rich and creamy. Greek Yogurt has a different consistency than regular yogurt. It is thicker without being a custard. It also to me has a different flavor. The Voskos Greek Yogurt flavors are high in protein, contain live and active probiotic cultures and no rBST, rBGH, GMO, and are gluten Free. They can replace sour cream, mayonnaise and cream cheese in many recipes, thus lowering the amount of calories and upping the protein.

Voskos Greek Yogurt recently sent me some samples to try. They sent me a few of the certified organic yogurts and some of their non organic yogurt flavors. I’ve been quite happy with both sets. I don’t have the strongest of taste buds around and I can’t tell a difference. I usually can tell a difference between organic and non-organic, but I think that since they use natural ingredients in both they are very similar.  One thing that I do really like is that they have a lot of interesting and natural flavors. Take these three flavors for instance Honey Vanilla Bean, Organic Vanilla Bean, and Exotic Fig.

Each flavor has around 130 calories and no fat. Yogurt is so good for you in so many ways.

New Yoplait Greek Yogurt Spa #giveaway

March 8, 2010 By 324 Comments

New Yoplait Greek yogurt invites women to nourish their inner goddess with the delicious goodness found in every cup of the brand’s newest offering. Packed with 12 grams of protein – twice that found in leading yogurts – new Yoplait Greek nourishes from the inside out. Available in four delicious flavors, Strawberry, Blueberry, Honey Vanilla and Plain, Yoplait Greek has a unique thick and creamy texture with the unmatched taste expected of Yoplait.

Yoplait Greek Blueberry

I was sent the gift basket from My Blog Spark on behalf of General Mills/Yoplait that I am going to be giving away in this post. Along with the bath robe, bath shoes, and bath washing tools, I received four samples of Greek Yogurt made by Yoplait. My grandmother was telling me all about how wonderful the Greek Yogurt was when I was visiting with her last month. So when I had the opportunity to try it I was quite excited to say yes.

Greek Yogurt is thicker than regular yogurt and it tastes less sour to me. I’m not a big fan of yogurt because most flavors taste sour to me. My grandmother on the other hand would describe it as more flavorful. She says it’s more Robust and loves it. She doesn’t usually care for yogurt. My kids would describe it as yummy and have been constantly asking for more yogurt at snack time.

You can enter to win a Yoplait Greek yogurt “Nourish Your Inner Goddess” gift pack, which includes great spa items to help you relax and get in touch with your own inner goddess and four VIP* coupons.
