use it to make tsasiki that is the best stuff ever and dip some pita chips into it man now i am getting hungry

Yeah I definitely can only eat the "sweet stuff". I like the silloiette sp? dannon varieties.

I eat this for breakfast most mornings. If you mix in some fresh berries and sliced almonds you cut the bitterness but keep the rich, cream texture. Very filling and yummy!

I do all kinds of stuff with this: sour cream replacement, tsaziki, smoothies, etc. I also like to mix it with a little splenda and cinnamon and serve it with baked apples, or just with a bit of splenda and fresh berries. One of my favorite foods of all time!

Thank you so much guys (and gals) for the comments on how you use Fage. But Max and graceless where are the tsasiki (tzatziki - sp?) recipes??

Meh. I love this stuff. But I can't eat it by itself. I always add stuff (ie, honey, fruit, or mix it with flax seed meal and dip fresh fruit in that).

Tanya, Tzatziki is soooo delicious. Check out this tzatziki recipe from Epicurious: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/recipe_views/views/5403

I just put mix in peeled, chopped English/seedless cucumbers, garlic, and salt and pepper. There are others ways to make it, I'm sure. I saw someone making it with beets on the BBC the other night and it looked great. The plain Fage is also good if you put a dollop in tomato soup or any kind of spicy stew/soup. MMMM.

This yogurt definitely needs to have some splenda added to it to taste anywhere decent (I actually add 2 packets!)

No, no no! You never eat Fage plain! I eat it every day, but with 2 sachets of Splenda!

Other combos:
1 packet Splenda + Sugar Free jam or jelly

Splenda + a bit of decaf=coffee flavored yogurt.

I get the fat free, too, for 80 cals each.

I love this stuff. For breakfast I stir in a teaspoon of honey, the way I learned to eat yogurt in Spain. Some days I add a teaspoon of sugar and a handful of frozen berries. I also use it as a substitute for sour cream. And now I want to try tzaziki with it. Yum!

Thanks Abi and Max for the recipes! And I sure wish I had known about not eating it straight before I had it :0) I made a smoothie with it this morning though - and it was delicious!

I've been looking around for these... they are more expensive than I thought.

Trader Joe's: 1.69 for the 2% Fat Fage, which is preferable to the no-fat version by far. I eat mine with 0.25 cup of Grape Nuts for lunch. Fills me right up and tastes delicious. (Can't stand the taste of sweet yogurt anymore, gah.)

anyone know where I can get coupons? I eat 0% fage twice daily -- great for diabetics who trying to avoid high carbs. Fage has 6gto the others' 19g+

I work at a high end boutique hotel and have grown to love greek yogurt. If you drizzle a tiny bit of honey on top and a couple raspberries it's a fulfilling snack!

I eat at least 6 Fage 2% with honey a day.It is costing me a fortune though.But I love the creamy texture.And the 2% is not as sour.

You're supposed to flavor it of course! Add a tablespoon of jam or something next time.

I love Fage yogurt, and eat it daily. I add Splenda and blueberries to mine. Yes, you have to add flavor to it yourself. I find it delicious and chock full of protein. I don't think I could go back to other yogurts, as I would find them too artificially sweet.

I LOVE Fage yogurt! Super with honey and/or berries (cherry--yum!) -- almost cheesecake-ish in rich flavor. Just wish it were easier to obtain. Classic Greek desert is yogurt with honey & chopped walnuts...and of course, the wonderful cucumber dip (tzatziki)

I can't stand the typical domestic yogurts anymore. They are too sweet and... slimy. I hate the fact they use pectin or geletin to thicken and give the yogurt volume. If I wanted geletin, I'd buy jell-o.

For the commenter that said it's costing a fortune eating fage, try making your own yogurt. I've done it, and it's shockingly easy. You just need to have a good food thermometer to keep the temp at an optimal level. After the yogurt reaches your desired tartness, you can strain the yogurt to get that thick custerdy consistancy. It came pretty close the last time I did it

fage yogurt is excellent with fresh strawberries, sliced almonds and a generous squeeze of honey!

Who ever misled you to beleive that yogurt was meant to be sweet? It is only in this country that everything we put in our mouths has to be suggar ladden in order for it to be accpetable. Our taste buds have been over-exposed to sugar and are now incapable of experiencing the amazing nuances in the avrying levels of natural tastes in food as it is truly meant to be experienced.

I can't get enough of the stuff. I usually buy the 2%, but whatever I buy, I put it into a sieve on top of a bowl then in the refrigerator and just leave it there. It gets thicker and thicker, almost like mascarpone cheese. I love it plain, but for breakfast I cut up strawberries and mix them in. I wish it wasn't so expensive though!

Why didn't you add stuff to it like some sort of sweetener and some fruit? You don't just eat plain yogurt without putting something in it!

FAGE Yogurt is a wonderful product. I am lactose intolerant and I can't eat yogurt, that is until I found out about FAGE. I don't even have to use a Lactase Enzyme caplet with FAGE. I eat the 0% with Trader Joe's Apricot sauce. I wish FAGE had the 5.3oz with honey combo in the 0% instead of Total fat. It's worth the money. It's a meal in itself, especially for breakfast or lunch. I am a senior and this product helps me to stay "regular". . .if you know what I mean.

I bought this and tried it today as i heard it was the most delicious thing in the world. Oh dear, it was bland and it looked and tasted like cement paste!! (not that i had cement before)

I definintely wont be buying this again, i'd rather have alta dena's plain yogurt which is cheaper in price too

Love this stuff, Trader Joes also has a great greek style yogurt

Try it with fresh mango and Galaxy Granola (Not Sweet Vanilla flavor). Yum!

Hi,
I am not able to frind one. can anyone tell me which stores carry FAge yogurt.
Thanks!

i just don't get it...this stuff is so sour. i love the texture, buy why can't they add some flavor? i'll stick to dannon fruit on the bottom, skipping the fruit. fage...blech!

I use the plain for cooking, but they have 2% with cherries, strawberries and peaches that are absolutely the best. This stuff makes me love yogurt again, where other yogurts are just okay.

FAGE makes yoghurt with 0%, 2%, 5%, and 10% fat. Eating 0% yoghurt is like eating "healthy" whole-wheat bread (which tastes like white bread, with sawdust added). You want flavor, try the 10% yoghurt. Yum. Better than a candy bar....

I eat the Fage 2% almost every morning. With a little honey and some fruit (mango, berries... whatever!) mixed in, I feel like a queen. It's a luxurious treat and SO good for you!

I love Fage, but I can't eat it plain. If I can't find the ones that have the strawberry mix in's, then I buy the larger tub size, and mix in one regular Stoneyfield flavored yogurt to give it taste. I just love the consistency of the FAGE.

I get the full fat kind because it's so low in carbs and not too sweet for my tastebuds (2 weeks on Atkins induction will make you very sensitive to sugar!). So good with some DaVinci sf syrup or a little sf jam.

I can't eat Fage plain either...but with a bit of blueberry jam mixed in, it becomes a yummy dessert! Another great option is stirring in some sugar-free dry pudding mix; this thickens up the yogurt even more, making it almost like cheesecake. You're not going to find a high protein content like this with any other yogurt!

I am hooked on this yogurt.Looking to find deals on it though.
Ihave found that if you mix it with Stevia and unsweetended chocolate, it tastes like rich icecream..Yum..Love all the protein and no fat...
The 2% is even better..Creamer taste..

This stuff is fantastic and versatile. I like it as a breakfast or as a desert with honey or fruit or both. I don't understand how anyone could like the American varieties. I can't even call them yogurt. They are mostly corn syrup and gelatin. This is very healthy for your digestive system. I get it at a co-op and it has a better price than some larger stores. It be nice if it was cheaper, but it's not that well known. It should be!!!! Anyways, it has a fantastic texture and goes great with honey and fresh fruit. Whenever I buy it it's hard not to eat it all in a day.

I have to be honest... I have been eating the Fage for quite some time now however: There is a new Greek yogurt called Chobani. My friends told me about it, so I decided to try it. I think I have finaly found THE REAL GREEK YOGURT!!

Hey Iacovis, Where can I find that Chobani. I have heard a lot about it. They say it is so smooth and creamy, even the 0%. Which one do you recommend?

If you don't like sour cream, you would not like this. If you have a sweet tooth, cannot consider a meal complete without dessert, would rather snack on cookies than pretzels, cannot imagine drinking unsweetened ice tea, then add fruit or honey/sweeteners to fage, as has been described by many posters so far. I think of this is another dip for whole wheat pita, up there with hummus tahini baba ghanoush etc. I suggest adding salt, garlic, paprika, and most importantly crumble some fresh or dried rosemary in there, and let sit to absorb the flavor. Then serve with some sprinkled pine nuts and a dash of olive oil on top, alongside other mediterranean dips, olives, etc.

I love Fage! This daily fix can get real expensive but it's worth it. I eat the Total 0% with a little honey and walnuts or with splenda and berries mixed in. I can't eat Dannon's or any American made yogurt anymore.

I agree with Gina - I have no interest in American yogurt anymore. A little honey and some diced apples. I also sprinkle in some flax seeds to get some omega-3. I think the savory ideas - cucumbers, dill and salt/pepper sound great, too - like with cottage cheese.

I love this yogurt--it's pretty much a breakfast staple for me. As others have said, it does require a little 'getting used to,' but it's extremely versatile and nutritious. I think it tastes amazing when mixed with frozen fruit (thawed slightly), sliced nuts, cinnamon, sugar-free maple syrup, etc. The fact that it boasts so much protein is great, too--it definitely helps me stay full until lunch.

hey, did you guys know you can make your own "greeked" yogurt?
just buy (or make) some regular plain yogurt, and plop some (over a jar) in some cheesecloth, or (what I use, it's easier) a coffee filter in a funnel, and leave it a few hours or overnight in the fridge. Voila! Delicious greek yogurt!
I still buy Fage though, because it's fast and I love to sweeten it and dip strawberries in it. Yum!

Greek Fage yogurt is the best Since being in greece I can not eat american yogurt.Put lots of fruit on it drizzle with honey it is the best.sometimes I add bran flakes walnuts too!

I JUST FINISHED EATING A CONTAINER OF FAGE ALONG WITH SOME HONEY AND I HAVE TO SAY IT IS DELICIOUS, BUT DID ANY ONE READ THE NUTRITION FACTS THERE ARE 12G OF FAT AND 20 MG O CHOLESTEROL, I KNEIT WAS TOO GOOD TO BE HEALTHY

I love this stuff but have only tried it in a savory way. I mix it with Hidden Valley Ranch dry salad dressing mix and a little low fat milk for a wonderful extremely low fat salad dressing. I buy it in Connecticut at A&P and Stop & Shop.

I really like the 2% variety -- nice and creamy, but not as tangy as the 0%. I think it's yummy mixed with a bit of spicy Indian pickle, like Patak's variety. Good stuff!

The first time I tried Fage I got the Fage total with honey. It wasn't low calorie, and it had a pretty hefty amount of fat, but it was the best tasting stuff I've ever had. I was hooked. Fage isn't something you can just eat plain. I've started buying the 0% and just mixing in my own honey. I'm in love!!!!

Fage is good with honey, plus you can buy smaller sizes with strawberry. It is hard to take by itself unless you mix it with something.
I love it, particularly with honey.

Are you people NUTS!? FAGE (2%+) has to be the most amazing food I've ever eaten and YES sometimes I do dip into it PLAIN! It has such a rich, creamy, natural flavor, apparently it's only appreciated by very discriminating palates! I have no problem dropping near $30/week on Fage products. I buy the large 2% tubs and put honey on it and buy the individual strawberry packs. I will eat Fage sometimes more than twice a day. I love FAGE!

I really dislike sweet yogurts, so I never ate them. Now, I have this wonderful product with all its nutritional values every day. I think this is the best yogurt ever. Plus, I love that this is so creamy. Most of the yogurts on the shelf are more liquid. This is my breakfast for every day. I eat it with fresh blueberries or strawberries. I can add cinnamon, anything I like. I can even eat it plain, and I still like it. I looked on the internet, and they have this product with fruit: http://www.fage.gr/page/default.asp?id=428&la=2
I have not seen it on the shelves though. Anyway, thumbs up for this yogurt!

This kind of yogurt may be used as a spread. I like to cut up fruit with a little bit of soy milk and some cereal and you have a oerfect breakfast or snack. Great for mixing with buttermilk for a great tangy dip. Sugar Sweetened yogurt is not the best for you anyway.

After reading this and several comments I am wondering why everyone thinks there is only sweet yogurt in this country. Haven't any of you tried plain yogurt? You flavor it with fruit and sweetener or a tiny bit of fruit flavored drink powder. Nuts optional. Great tasting. The cucumbers etc sounds great too.

I am absolutely addicted to this yogurt!! I eat it every day with dried cranberries,chopped walnuts,and a good drizzle of honey. Heaven!!!!

"Why didn't you add stuff to it like some sort of sweetener and some fruit? You don't just eat plain yogurt without putting something in it!"

WHAT THE HECK? Don't people realize "plain" is the way yogurt has been eaten for millenia? Why is it that in non-yogurt-eating societies like this, we feel the need to sweeten everything up? (with Splenda, a Carcinogen, nonetheless).

Take it from me (and the rest of the world) Plain Yogurt is delicious and nutritious, if you add anything, add salt!

OH MY GOD!Never tasted yogurt this good, it was like whipped topping. I added 1 pkt splenda and a lil bit of vanilla and some papayas. I am not a fan of Dannon or yoplait etc. But this i will eat, also the protein in this is amazing.Super.

Fage is the "real" way yogurt is suppose to be. As a little girl my grandmother always made homemade yogurt..When I discovered Fage, it brought it back to me. Unfortunalty, sugar has been added to everything in our foods..Yogurt was not made to taste "sweet" It is yogurt, not ice cream..The true Mediterranean diet is the heathliest diet in the world..only when people "Americanize and supersize" with sugars and fats does it become what it was not meant to be...The sugar and fruit yogurts are not real yogurts.. When in Greece last summer we ate yogurt every day..We actually talked about how happy we were that we now had Fage to eat at home, because it is truly the best, just like in Greece.. We are having a Brunch for Mother's Day at our church and I know the Fage will be the hit of the foods. The people in my family and thousands of families who ate the healthy "unaltered" Mediterranean diet all those years died in their 90's from old age..enough said.....

I think Fage yogurt is the BEST... but I do prefer the 0% or 2% to teh "full fat" -- that's a bit too rich. Add some splenda & cinnamon and you got yourself a nice dessert.. or add some fresh fruit or honey... SO good!

Fage is my new favorite food. Although I do low-carb, I get the fat free version. I swear its like eating creme fraiche - w/o all the calories! I sprinkle a little splenda on the plain kind and eat it with toasted walnuts and strawberries. I also heard if you freeze it it makes excellent frozen yogurt!

mix it w/ honey or strawberry preserves (or any kind of jam you like) if you want sweet. so good! Throw in some fruit of fresh berries.

Please, can anyone tell me of the stores that carry fage 0%. I live in GA

Your best bet would be Whole Foods or Trader Joes,Kathy.

it sucked it made me gain 16 pounds

I work at Whole Foods and I must say this is yogurt is delicious. It's a lil more expensive than the American brands, but that's where my 20% discount comes in handy. I like to mix it with fresh blueberries, blackberies or chopped strawberries. YUM!
