We tried 4 common Greek yogurt brands and figured out which one you should buy
For consistency purposes, we bought the same flavor across all four brands: blueberry.
Dannon, Chobani, and Stonyfield all have their blueberry flavoring at the bottom.
Fage is the only brand that comes with a separate compartment.
Upon mixing, the yogurts all turned a similar shade of pink / light purple.
Stonyfield tasted the least like Greek yogurt.
It had a much thinner, more watery consistency, and the fruit chunks in the yogurt had a leathery texture.
The Chobani yogurt had a similar — thin — consistency.
Its blueberry flavoring was very sweet.
The Fage yogurt had the most fat out of all four that we sampled (2%), so it was also the thickest and creamiest.
Fage's blueberry chunks seemed the most authentic, and the flavor was sweet without being overwhelmingly sweet.
The Dannon Greek yogurt tasted, not surprisingly, artificial — the company's Greek yogurt is part of their Light & Fit brand.
At first bite it's tasty, but that bite quickly dissolves into a chemical-like aftertaste characteristic of light foods. It lingered in my mouth unpleasantly for way too long.
In our opinion, Fage wins. Its overall creaminess and authentic flavoring make it the tastiest of the four.
Chobani tastes sweeter and you can tell by the consistency that it's nonfat. If you're looking for a yogurt with less fat and a sweeter flavor, this your best bet.
Stonyfield's Greek yogurt didn't taste bad, but it didn't taste like Greek yogurt either. Had we not seen the packaging, we would have thought we were eating regular blueberry yogurt.
Our least favorite was Dannon's Greek yogurt. The artificial taste of this yogurt makes it obvious it's a light product.
