For some time now, I've been worried about yogurt. I love the health benefits of yogurt and what it does for a body in terms of digestion. However, I have texture issues with some brands... If it's too grainy, I simply can't eat it. Yoplait Original has a wonderful texture and a wide variety of flavors, which I love. But the amount of sugar.... {sigh} I am trying to avoid high fructose corn syrup wherever possible, and trying to cut back on my sugar intake in general. And I can't stand artificial sweeteners, so going Light was just not an option (besides, they contain HFCS as well). So I stopped eating yogurt altogether for awhile, because I just wasn't sure the calcium and digestive benefits outweighed the heavy sugar content.
But I missed it... a lot. So I started looking again, and I discovered that Yoplait Original no longer has HFCS in it!! This makes me so happy! It still contains 33g of total carbohydrates, 26 of which are from sugars... but it's just sugar, and not HFCS. So maybe I can live with that...
Welcome back to my diet, Yoplait Original yogurt... You, a cup of coffee and a piece of toast with peanut butter are a good way to start my day. :)
I am so hooked on blueberry right now. It just hits the spot every time. I am with you, Jen !
