After having been eating yogurt that seemed overly sweetened and looks like goo, I wanted something heartier and less sweet yet satisfying so I trotted down to the local grocer to see if they had any good quality yogurt that I was looking for.
Eureka!
There it was – Zoi Greek Yogurt “Epic Taste – Fit for the Gods.” It was beckoning me to have a taste. (Cue heavenly melody.) Since I’ve never tried Greek yogurt before but have heard that it was supposed to be good for you, I picked up their honey flavored one just to check it out.
The texture was quite unique. It was thick, smooth and creamy with a slight tang to it. By straining the yogurt of its excess moisture creates this unique texture. It was as if cream cheese and sour cream met and the texture created would be of Greek yogurt. I like how it just sticks to your spoon and being able to savor its unique texture. The tanginess was a bit much for me so to sweeten it up a bit, I added some Smucker’s Raspberry Preserves and that just hit the spot. Quite delicious!
Zoi Yogurt is made by Auburn Dairy Products Inc, located in Auburn, WA. Since it’s a local brand, I’m all for supporting them. I love their packaging too, simple yet it’s attention grabbing. Zoi Greek Yogurt also comes in Plain, Blueberry Cream, Strawberry Cream, and Vanilla. The ones that are fruit flavored have “Fruit on the Bottom” rather than mixed in so you can tailor the flavoring to your liking.
What I love about Zoi Yogurt is that their ingredients are all – natural, contains Calcium, Vitamin A and Vitamin D3 and have 6 live cultures (S. thermalphilus, L. bulgaricus, L. acidphilus, Bfido. Lactis, L. rhamnosus, and L. casei) for a healthy GI tract. They’re also gluten free so if you’re allergic to wheat, then this tasty yogurt might be for you.
Although, it’s heavy on the caloric side (240 Cal/130 Cal from Fat (Honey, 6 oz)), it’s quite satisfying and keeps you full so no need to feel bad. It took me two sitting to finish off my container of yogurt. It also contains 7 grams of protein as well so it’s great for those who are vegetarians too.
I would highly recommend Zoi Yogurt to anyone who wants “Epic Taste – Fit for the Gods” and a healthy snack that will tide you over between meals or even have it for a meal like breakfast and maybe even lunch. Just writing about this makes me want one!
