Shortly after my first post about So Delicious Greek Yogurt, my friend told me they just came out with 2 unsweetened coconut yogurts! Plain and vanilla! How exciting! She had bought both & we sampled them and they tasted like pudding! The next day I went to buy one of each.
The Unsweetened Vanilla has 60 calories & the plain has 10 less. The plain has 4g of fat and vanilla 3.5(not sure how that's less?) and the plain has 6g carbs and the vanilla has 7. Other than that, they have the same nutrition. Same exact ingredients, except for the vanilla of course, having a vanilla flavor. Just like the greek yogurts, they both have Vitamin D2 and Vitamin B12.
I was getting both and switching between them, but I think I've decided I like the vanilla slightly more. I have eaten it plain and I like it a lot, but I started dipping strawberries in it recently and I can't believe how amazing it tastes! It's like dessert! I also don't feel the coconut flavor is too strong for those who are not into coconut. The texture is very creamy, I love it.
Recently I decided to make a yogurt bowl for breakfast:
strawberries, granola, flax seeds, mulberries, goji berries and hemp seeds. You can't see the yogurt, but it's under there! & everything tasted so delicious together.
I really love this product and eat it often. I highly recommend it and am so happy that they came out with a sugar free one! If you want to up your probiotics and/or have a yummy snack or a healthy dessert, or have it for breakfast, like I did, I really recommend trying this.

So delicious Plain Coconut Milk Greek Yogurt
The first product I want to review is So Delicious Greek Yogurt Cultured Coconut Milk. I never liked yogurt growing up, and I never even had greek yogurt in my life. I've been wanting to up my probiotics and thought it'd be easy to do that with yogurt. The various So Delicious yogurts comes in various flavors and with those flavors comes a lot of sugar, which I'm trying to avoid. The plain greek style almond milk and the the plain greek style coconut milk both have 7g of sugar which is less than the flavors (which have 10g and above, the raspberry has 20g! yikes). I tried the almond milk greek plain yogurt last week and thought it was disgusting. I decided to try the plain coconut one, and I actually liked it a lot! The texture reminded me of pudding. It's smooth, thick and creamy. I thought it was tasty, but I decided to add some blueberries which definitely made it even better.
Now, unfortunately whereas regular dairy greek yogurt has about 12g of protein (hence why all the fitness people recommend it), this unfortunately has a measly 2g of protein! so sad.
Good points other than this being a probiotic is that it also has B12 and Vitamin D2! Also has 9g of fiber. I'll definitely keep this in my rotation of healthy snacks to have.
Can someone out there make a vegan yogurt that's low in sugar and has lots of protein? It'd be such a perfect after workout snack!
