Silk Live Key Lime Soy Yogurt
Hopefully you have already experienced the nirvana that is a well made Key Lime Pie, so you know what to expect. The green picture on the label, and my association of the color green with the word "lime" actually led me to believe that this yogurt would be ... green. But, it wasn't. The color was actually a light brown, "yogurt might have gone bad" kind of color. But I still went ahead and had a spoonful and I'm glad I did. There is a definite yummy key lime flavor - tart and sweet at the same time, although more on the tart side. One 6 ounce container of Silk Live Key Lime Soy Yogurt has 150 calories, 2 grams of fat (3% of the recommended daily amount), no saturated or trans fat, 4 grams of protein and 30 grams of total carbohydrates, which includes only 1 gram of fiber and 21 grams of sugars. Plus 50% citamin C and 30% of your daily calcium requirements. Sure the sugars may be a bit more than I would like, but the flavor is pretty good, and kudos to Silk for having no artificial flavors or preservatives, meaning no artificial sweeteners, and 6 live active yogurt cultures - which promotes the growth of the good gut bacteria which can fight the bad cancer causing ones. One container was 99 cents at Whole Foods. Hopefully they are a little cheaper elsewhere because Whole Foods is notoriously expensive. I would buy these again, because it made a delicious Key Lime protein shake - delish! Comments

My favorite soy yogurt is WholeSoy - they don't make a key lime flavor, but the flavors they DO make are sooo delicious.
