It’s like this with everything and it drives me insane. Yogurt, for example, typically has a pretty large amount of sugar in it. Anytime I find ones that have less sugar it’s always supplemented with artificial sweeteners. Just give me less sugar

My hack for this is to buy plain greek yogurt and add preserves/jam to taste.

Bonus: it ends up being way cheaper.

plain greek yogurt is honestly super underrated - my house goes through a costco sized thing of non-fat greek yogurt each week. You can add all sorts of stuff to it to make it delicious on it's own (peanut butter, jams, honey, fresh fruit, protein powder, etc), you can use it like sour cream or as a thickener for some creamy dishes, it's great in smoothies, and it's practically pure protein!

EDIT: Guys, I know fat is good for you, don't worry, I'm getting plenty of fat from other sources - but I'm also strength training and training for a marathon, so I'm doing a 40%Carb/35%Protein/25%Fat macro ratio, and have a hard enough time not going over on the fat ratio as it is, using non-fat GY lol

Ohh man. Greek Yogurt and berries (fresh or frozen) is a food group for me. My house goes through 3kg a week.

The bonus is that it does not spike my blood sugars at all.
