Chobani Greek Yogurt Review!

I love Chobani yogurt and am a huge fan. They keep introducing new products, and I am happy to share some of the new products I was sent to sample with you today. Chobani Greek yogurt is delicious, preservative-free, and healthy. It still boggles my mind when I introduce people to Greek yogurt who have never tried it before. If you're among that group of people, do give Chobani a try - you'll be pleasantly surprised!

Below are some of Chobani's new products and flavors that I reviewed:

Honey Ginger Bite: 9.5 of 10. This was so unique! I am a huge fan of ginger and loved this. I liked the pairing of honey and ginger. The flecks of ginger were a perfect addition.

Key Lime Blended: 10 of 10! I absolutely loved this flavor! I don't normally enjoy key lime, but this was a perfectly rich, thick, natural, and sweet flavor that tasted like a rich dessert - this is definitely a healthier option than key lime pie though.

Orange Vanilla Blended: 7.5 of 10. This flavor was okay, but the vanilla seemed to overpower the orange flavor and therefore I found it a little dull compared to their other options. To fully enjoy this flavor, I'd recommend some mix-ins or using this in a smoothie. Then you'll be golden.

Peachy Pistachio Flip: 9 of 10. I would have never come up with this flavor combo myself (peach, pistachio, and dark chocolate), but Chobani pulls it off. It's very flavorful, and all the flavors come through.

Blueberry Power Flip: 9.5 of 10. Blueberry is a standard flavor, but the addition of walnuts and hemp and chia seeds packs an extra punch... maybe that's why 'power' is in the name. (pictured below)


Almond Coco Loco Flip: 9.5 of 10. Almonds, coconut, and dark chocolate? This is dessert! What a lovely pairing of flavors. I'm a fan of these flips. (pictured below)


Tropical Escape Flip: 9 of 10. This treat is most definitely an escape. I could close my eyes and picture myself upon a sunny beach. While I enjoyed the yogurt more so than the toppings, I found the whole thing to be tasty, crunchy, and filling with a well-balanced pairing of pineapple and coconut.

So, what are you waiting for? Head to your local grocery store and try out some of Chobani's new products! I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Last of the Chobani

Homework or blog?  Tonight it is blog... and then homework.  Tonight I'm going to finish up my reviews of the Chobani yogurt I was sent... a hard job, but someone's got to do it ;-).  Here is my first review.


Strawberry: 10 of 10! Smooth, thick, and creamy.  A very strong and natural strawberry flavor.  It's also pretty sweet, but only 19g of sugar, which is pretty good as far as flavored yogurts go! 


Peach: 10 of 10. Just peachy ;-).  I loved the little peach chunks blended with the amazing greek yogurt base.  Raw sunflower seeds make a nice topper too.

Nothing beats good greek yogurt, and Chobani definitely delivers.

Vitalicious reviews will be coming up next! 

Enjoy the upcoming weekend everyone!  I'm hoping to be able to take some time to see Elephant, a free performance at the University of Illinois.  This performance is part of The Unreliable Bestiary, "an ark of stories about animals, our relationships with them, and the worlds they inhabit."  You can learn more here: http://unreliablebestiary.org/about.php.

CHOtastic Chobani review

I received an awesome complimentary assortment of Chobani Greek Yogurt to review awhile back :-).  Here are some of the flavors:

100_4432
100_4436

Raspberry: 10 of 10!  It was everything I hoped for!  I LOVE raspberries and the raspberry flavor of this yogurt was quite prominent.  It was great with walnuts mixed in too :-).


100_4440 100_4442

Pineapple: 9.5 of 10.  I enjoyed the pieces of pineapple.  They weren’t soft and mushy, but rather substantial.  I’ll admit I was hesitant though because I’ve been scarred by the canned pineapple served with my school lunches in grade school :-(.

100_4455

Pomegranate: 10 of 10.  The pomegranate seeds added a great crunch and burst of flavor.  Loved how thick an creamy the yogurt was – so delicious!

100_4458

Blueberry: 10 of 10.  A very strong and fresh flavor.  0% fat and oh, so good!

100_4468

Strawberry Banana: 10 of 10.  I’m not normally a fan of strawberry banana flavors, but somehow Chobani pulled it off for me.  Maybe the 2% yogurt base made it more rich?  The strawberry pieces were great too!

100_4474

Vanilla: 9 of 10.  A deep, hearty vanilla flavor, but it seemed kind of weird to me.  Maybe it was too tart.  It was still good, but not as amazing as the other flavors.

100_4478

0% plain: 9.5 of 10.  Tart, thick, and smooth.  Very substantial and a lot of protein for only 100 calories.  Nuts are a great topper too :-).

100_4485

2% plain: 10 of 10.  Less tart and richer than the 0%.  It was almost like sour cream in that is was sooo creamy.  Perfect in my cantaloupe bowl :-).

I’ve still got a few more to review, but so far my impression is very positive.  The high scores are my honest opinion.  I couldn’t find much to complain about.  Chobani makes quality Greek yogurt!  I guess my one suggestion would be for them to add more calcium and Vitamin D to their yogurt.
