Yogurt fanatic? Me too! I`m always searching for different flavors, different types, and new brands. While strolling through Super Target today on my lunch break, I discovered Noosa. Produced in Colorado, this yogurt (or yoghurt) gets its name from Noosa, Australia...which is where the recipe hails from as well!
Sweetened with honey from a Colorado bee farm, it is very similar to Greek yogurt. Even the milk that is used to make Noosa comes from a Colorado-based dairy. Just a 4 oz serving size (not 6 oz...like Greek yogurt cups), provides 9 grams of protein and 15% of your daily calcium needs. The downside? This is not a fat-free product....yet. Maybe they`ll come out with that in the future! However, you don`t have to eat as much of it to get the same protein and calcium amounts as you do with fat-free Greek yogurt...so that`s a plus, right?
Flavors that are currently available: Honey, Blueberry, Peach, Mango, Raspberry, and Strawberry-Rhubarb.
Curiosity guided me to try the Strawberry-Rhubarb and it was pretty darn tasty. The consistency is a little thinner and less dense than that of Greek yogurt, yet not as runny as fat-free (non-Greek) yogurt.
