Today I'm eating Horizon Organic Fat-Free yogurt. Its a cherry, fruit-on-the-bottom style yogurt.
Calories - 130
Sugar - 25g
Starts with a nice tangy scent - but haven't stirred it yet so not much cherry scent.
After stirring - and there's some nice big bits of cherry in there - there is only a hit of cherry scent, did take quite a bit of stirring to get it there too - must of been quite a bit on the bottom.
First taste the sweet was stronger than the tang, but it kind of slid up after the first rush of sweet - not real strong on first taste.
The tang stays with you but the cherries are delightfully sweet - I do love fresh cherries!
Almost done and the sweet is still very strong while the tang has diminished.
Well, this was very sweet, probably more to the taste of children then the yogurt connoisseur, but if you only want to get one brand and know it will be both good for you, your kids and they will think its a big treat - this might be for you.
If I can't find any other cherry flavors, I might get it again. If they have the more pudding flavors that come out I might also get it - like key lime or chocolate (the 2 flavors of my next and last 2 reviews!!)

I do not like my yogurt that sweet so will not go for it. I get the Astro fat free yogurt that does not have any corn starch or gelatin in it, and then I add my own fruit and nuts. I ran out of blueberries, my blueberry bush only had about five this year, so I will have to get another. I have some frozen strawberries and raspberries, but not enough so I am using huckleberries. The organic kind here is way too expensive, but if it were cheap, I would buy it.

I think they are some berries that grow someplace in America, I have no idea where, but they have to be hand picked.

I haven't gotten any plain - tho I hear its good to use like sour cream - ohhh, sour cream and potato chips...

Finally, one we have here. I don't care for it all that much, but at least it is one we have. We have Stonybrooke organic. That is the one I tend to get. Unless I get a really good deal on Yoplait or Dannon, but I prefer or is it Stonyfield? At any rate, I haven't been able to afford yogurt much lately, so I don't have on hand. At any rate, it's a Vermont company. I love their berry flavors the best. For lemon and the other pie filling types, I like yoplait the best. It's really sweet and some of it you could actually put in a pie crust and no one would know the difference. But the low cal stuff you can really tell compared to the rest of it.

Well, as I said above, I've shyed away from strawberry ones because I don't care for cooked strawberries and they do have to be slightly cooked anyway to keep from going bad - I don't care for the frozen ones either.
And I don't like bananas, they adversely affect corn, make even the slightest reaction stronger. I can tell how my corn allergy is doing by the appeal that bananas have - most of the time total dislike.
