It's been all Yogurt Reviews this week (and last week), and I wonder if I saved the best for last. I got no strange looks at the grocery store when I bought 10 different brands and flavors of yogurt, and the last one left standing is Oikos Nonfat Greek Pomegranate Yogurt.

I received a few coupons for Oikos Organic Yogurt a few weeks ago, and I've had a heck of a time finding them in my local grocery stores! When I finally found them at a D'Agostino's near me, I checked out the Strawberry flavor.

Unlike the cloyingly sweet Oikos Honey yogurt, these were delicious. The strawberry preserve stuff mixed beautifully with the not-so-thick yogurt, making for a slightly more substantial fruit-on-the-bottom cup.The flavor was really spot on, making this one of my favorite Greek yogurt varieties.

Each 4-ounce Oikos Organic Strawberry Greek Yogurt provides 90 calories, no fat, 12 grams of sugars, no fiber, 10 grams of protein, and 10% of the daily value for calcium.

Oikos Organic Greek Yogurt (Honey) Review

I received a couple of coupons for free Oikos Nonfat Greek Yogurt 4-packs a while back, and I've had a heck of a time finding them! When I finally found them at a D'Agostino's near me, I opted to try the Honey flavor. This cost me $5.85, but I've seen it on sale for $3.99.

The yogurt had kind of a strange flavor - a little more tart and sour than even regular non-fat Greek yogurt, and the honey was quite sweet on it's own. In fact, a little too much so. When it was mixed with the yogurt, though, they did balance each other out fairly well. As with the other Oikos yogurts I've experienced, this isn't as thick as Fage, but in this fruit on the bottom format (or rather, honey on the bottom), that wasn't necessarily a bad thing as it made mixing it together a little easier.

Oikos Organic Greek Yogurt Review

In case you haven't been paying attention, people everywhere are going nuts over Fage Greek Yogurt. I find Fage's thick and creamy texture its best attribute, but its flavor is pretty bland (read our review - we are one of the few people not going nuts). So, I thought I would give this competing brand, Oikos Organic Greek Yogurt, a whirl. Oikos is made by Stonyfield Farms, a company whose products I normally like especially because they're organic.

The plain version of Oikos is quite similar to Fage. Same great thick texture, but it needs add-ons like honey or fruit to make it truly delectable. Oikos also makes a vanilla flavor, which has just 20 calories more than their plain variety (120 vs. 100 for a 6 ounce container). I had high hopes for this lightly sweetened version, but alas, I found myself adding a packet of Stevia to the container. Unfortunately for you 2% Fage fans, there is no 2% or full fat variety in Oikos line; all their products are 0% fat.
