Review: Dannon Light n Fit with Fiber

I'm not a huge yogurt person...every once in a while, I'll get a hankerin', pick up a six-pack, eat two, and let the other 4 expire. But since I was starting my modified Core plan this week, I decided that non-fat yogurts would make a good quick breakfast in the morning. However, I've found that yogurt breakfasts find me famished by 10:30, so I usually add a spoonful of grape nuts for crunchiness and a little fiber for staying power.

So, I was all extra happy to see yogurt with fiber already in it--this seemed like a great idea. And they're sweetened with Splenda?! It's nature's perfect food. ;) My store only had peach, so I grabbed a six-pack of those and an 8-pack of Y0plait Lights.

I tried one of the Dannons on Tuesday, and I was a little afraid that they would have an artificial sweetness to them like the Dannon C@rb Control. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the taste and texture. It tasted like ordinary non-fat yogurt, and I think I actually felt/spotted some peach chunks in there. With its 3g of fiber per 4 oz cup, it kept me satisfied longer than most yogurts do. Because of the splenda, it's also about 2/3 the calories of your typical light yogurt.

My only complaint is that I've only been able to find peach and apple in my local stores so far, neither of which are bad, but they're not my flavors of choice. Judging from the picture above (which I ripped off from some online grocery--Dannon didn't have anything about this product on its site), they do also offer it in strawberry. When it arrives at my HEB, I'll definitely give that flavor a shot also.

Recently I've become so conditioned to thing fiber=roughage ie: brocolli, fiber one, grains...so when I see something liquid-ish w/fiber my brain waves gets warped. :p

This week I'll have to scour my dairy aisle to see if we've been blessed w/the fiberliscious yogurt.
