Dannon Light & Fit Key Lime Yogurt
By: | May 1, 2009
If you haven't tried any of the new flavors of Dannon Light & Fit, you may be doing yourself a disservice. Dannon has come up with 5 new varieties of their 80 calorie Light 'n Fit yogurt including Mixed Berry, Cherry, Key Lime, and limited time only Pineapple Coconut and Pomegranate Berry - and let me tell you, after trying the Key Lime flavor, I can't wait to try them all.
I was in the grocery store picking up some fruit yesterday when I happened upon the new Light & Fit flavors. I must admit, I don't even like Key Lime pie that much, but I was intrigued enough to try Dannon's take on the dessert flavor. I opened the package and spooned up my first taste. It was a delicious mouthful and much creamier than what I would have expected from an 80 calorie yogurt 
. The key lime flavor was perfect - not too over the top but the essence was present. I love it when snacks are flavorful and this made me feel like I had a real dessert instead of a yogurt!
Like all Dannon Light & Fit Yogurts, each 6 ounce serving provides 80 calories, no fat, 95 mg of sodium (4% of the RDA), 240 mg of potassium (7% of the RDA), 5 grams of protein, and 11 grams of sugar, in addition to 8% of the RDA for vitamin A, 15% for calcium, 20% for vitamin D, 20% for riboflavin, and 15% for phosphorus.
I picked up one container for 80 cents, and you can be sure I'll be buying this one again! Way to go, Light & Fit!

Dannon has too many artificial ingredients to be considered ayogurt, much less healthy. I just call it another type of "pudding" and eat sparingly as a snack.
I have to say, the Light & Fit line has definitely improved from the watery, metallic sludge that was the 60 calorie cups. I still prefer Yoplait, but Dannon is decent.
@ Wolf I was just thinking the same thing yesterday. Dannon (Light & Fit) really upped their game.
Emily - I think most of the ingredients listed in these yogurts are either sweeteners (which I agree can be artificial) or vitamins. Nonfat yogurt is the fist ingredient overall. Their Fruit on the Bottom yogurt, for example, has many artifical ingredients and fructose as well.
I'm not a dannon fan, I only buy it when it's really the best choice, but the key lime was a flavor I liked... it wasn't too sweet.
