Bought one pack of that stuff on sale at Carrefour - only to find out that their blueberry Joghurt contains large chunks of coconut jelly to extend the quantity (probably 10-20% of the weight is just jelly…). So disgusting, I just had to share somewhere… :unamused: :face_vomiting:

[image] qwert_zuiop: to extend the quantity I think it’s supposed to be a feature not a bug, right? I assume some people like it. (Not including me, and I’ve done exactly the same thing before. But then I usually only use yogurt for making smoothies, so I definitely don’t want chunks of jell…

The Carrefour house brand (cost: NT$99) is a decent alternative if it’s in store (often, in my experience, it’s not). Guy

Be extra careful. One time I bought Carrefour yogurt that was labeled “plain” in English but was actually 香蕉, which was written in a fancy Chinese script along the side of the package, as opposed to just being in a basic Chinese font right above or below the English (which was wrong)

To be clear: it’s the plain one (no sugar or other additives) that I am recommending. Guy

Some yogurt brands are just nasty. You need to find the good ones and hope they keep selling them. Or try to find a ‘life’ culture yogurt and start your own.

Costco yogurt is great but you need to buy too much at a time.

The Greek yogurt? No you don’t need to buy a lot, and anyways, yogurt stays fine quite long.

Some of the smaller local brands are pretty good for live yoghurts. This is one example. It has the usual live bacteria, and no artificial flavours or other crap added . It tastes pretty good. [image] 原味優格分享號-以鮮乳與乳酸菌製成，為天然無糖優格。天然又健康的馬修嚴選原味無糖優格，無加糖、無添加物，每100公克有100億隻以上的活性乳酸菌，無糖優格熱量約63大…

Matthew’s was involved in some scandal a while back, removing or switching up expiring dates to move their product. This history is discussed here:

Since then: no thanks!
