Well, I was shopping last Friday and I thought I'd
pick up some yogurt to make lassi with some of the
strawberries I had just picked up on sale. On the
way to the regular yogurt section of the supermarket
I came upon a different section, nowhere near the
regular one, that had a number of things including
kefir and some Stonyfield yogurts. I stopped out
of curiosity and was intrigued by the Stonyfield
whole milk yogurt. There were 4 varieties of Stony-
field yogure, 3 of which were plain and low-fat
and one of which was the whole milk yogurt which
was French vanilla flavor. Although I would normally
buy plain, unflavored yogurt for lassi I had to have
the whole milk stuff and figured the flavoring would
not hurt, in fact would make more scrumptious, the
strawberry lassi since it's a sweet lassi anyway.
However, I was a little worried about buying this
brand as I had once bought a couple of pints of their
organic ice cream at Best Foods when it was on sale.
They were awful! But this sounded so good I couldn't
resist. So I took it home. They only had it in
quart containers, so I really hoped it was good.
I sliced up the berries and sugared them and left them
sit out overnight to make juice. Sat. I had a large
bowl of berries and I just spooned a large helping of
the yogurt over them. Boy was that luscious. The
texture is amazing, too! Thick and smooth. I usually
don't care for the texture of yogurt, which has always
heretofore been low-fat yogurt, since that's all you
can usually get. I would never have put the plain
low-fat yogurt on my berries like that. It's okay
used in cooking and blended with fruit and water to
make lassi but just plain out of the container I'd
rather not eat it.
Well, now I'm addicted to this yogurt. Can't wait
to get home and have some more berries and yogurt for
dessert tonight. I still haven't made the lassi since
it was so good the other way. Yum.
