I love avocados. lol


But I can't 'do' Greek yogurt. It tastes like sour milk to me. And what some people refer to as "rich flavor" makes me want to gag.


I've tried 3 or 4 times to try and develop a taste for it, wanting to buy in to the health benefits...but I just can't.

Haha I like Greek Yogurt, and I think it IS sour milk!

I also like that you can get it plain. I don't like the yogurts that are watery and come with "fruit", which seems to actually be sweetened jam.

I've wondered what they were like. The descriptions I've read made them sound good. Thanks for being the guinea pig.

I prefer the Greek style yogurt to the thin, tart, regular yogurt, too. I don't like all of the sweetened fruit. I've started buying siggi's.

I LOVE rambutan, but you can't always get good ones and you can't always tell from outside, so another expensive gamble. You can get them, and lychees, in a can and they make fantastic sorbet.

I love Fage 5% because it tastes like yogurt: tangy. Siggi's cost the moon and stars near me and when I lived in NY, they were advertising for unpaid interns, which put me off them in a big way. Nothing to do with the taste, which is pretty good.

When you get to a Lidl, they carry the Icelandic yogurt for a very good price.

I bought spicy hummus at Trader Joes - and it is way too spicy. I meant to buy the hummus with red peppers in it which is very mild.

85 % dark chocolate was like eating sandpaper. Whoa. I'll never go above 72 % after that.
We got some store brand cookies few months back, no bad stuff in them, but the taste was awful.
A small yogurt, Siggi, but you can put the container upside down and it doesn't move. Way too thick for me.
