Dannon Light n Fit Yogurt

By: Tanya Taylor, PhD | Jan 24, 2006

Dannon has reformulated their Light n Fit yogurt, to make it just 40 calories in the small 4oz containers (60 calories in the bigger 6 ounce size). Like the folks over at Cheap Eats, I also received yogurt samples from Dannon. There were three flavors: Raspberry, Strawberry Banana and Blueberry. My impression was similar to that of Cheap Eats. I loved the smooth, creamy, texture, but didn't particularly care for the raspberry flavor, due in part to the fact that I like fruit pieces in my yogurt, and this flavor was blended - but that's my personal preference. I also didn't too much care for a slight aftertaste left by the use of Splenda.

You will be able to detect a huge difference in the taste between regular yogurt and Dannon Light n Fit. it's not necessarily in the sweetness, but there is a loss in flavor and the *yum factor.*

Dannon Light n Fit Yogurt provides 40 calories in 4 ounces as mentioned, no fat, 5 grams of protein and 7 grams of sugar. There is also 4-10% of many vitamins and minerals including calcium and vitamin D.

While this definitely won't unseat my current favorite yogurt, Yoplait Light, it's worth trying if you're seriously trying to cut out calories every where you can - and don't mind some loss of flavor along with it.
