Fage greek yogurt

[Susie]

We switched to eating Fage greek yogurt recently.  I am a big fan.  I mostly like the plain, and I put other stuff in it myself.  The plain is not as sour as Chobani plain, and it comes in 100 cal/6 oz. cups (ahem Chobani).  Win.  

But does it also come in bigger, multi-serving containers?  We buy big things of Chobani plain to use as a sour cream substitute, and it would be nice to only stock one kind of yogurt.  I don't want to be scooping out of a 6 oz cup to put on top of chili or a baked potato or whatever.

Also, there are awesome looking flavors on their website, but not in any store that I've found near me.  We have plain, honey, cherry, blueberry, the basics.  Um, some of the stuff on their website looks so good!  Are they?  Or should I feel happy that the unavailability of flavors keeps me from their sugary goodness?  Apple cinnamon raisin?  Orange cinnamon?  Mango guanabana?  These sound delightful.

Our grocery store has a few of the flavors but not a stellar selection. I also prefer Fage to Chobani although I've been eating Chobani more lately because that's what DH usually buys. To answer your question, yes it comes in bigger containers. I used to buy the 32 oz ones (I think?) when I was living by myself.

Yes it comes in bigger tubs! I actually prefer it because it actually has a lid and not just the paper and tinfoil.

We don't have the apple cinnamon but we have some of the combinations (cherry/pom, the mango one you mentioned, blueberry/acai, strawberry/goji)

I like it better than Chobani too as a sour cream sub!

Oh good. Calvin usually does the grocery shopping and he said he didn't see bigger containers. I am glad to hear they exist. We don't have Costco here, we'll have to see if they have Fage at BJ's.

Fage is my favorite! As others said, it does come in larger sizes. We can get the larger sizes at Whole Foods and Costco.

My local stores carry a few fun flavors - blueberry acai, cherry pomegranate, and the mango one. Those 3 are my favorite flavors, along with raspberry. I've never seen apple cinnamon, but it sounds good.

Yes. Our Costco carries plan 0% and the Fruyo vanilla flavor in 4 cup tubs.

Gah ya'll are killing me! We have neither Costco nor Whole Foods here. With how often Costco is suggested both here and on MM, sometimes I feel like I should put in my sig -- "please don't suggest I should buy it at Costco, we don't have one here."   It's like the answer to everything.

We have Shop Rite (new!), BJ's, Price Chopper, and Hannaford. Hopefully one of them has the bigger sizes. It was big news when we got a Trader Joe's a year or so ago, we're kinda behind the curve.

Yep, we buy the bigger tubs of Fage. I've always been able to find it at the regular grocery store.

Oh, I think Trader Joe's may sell the large containers of Fage, too. Fage yogurt is one of the few non-TJs-store-brand items that my local TJs sells. TJs also sells its own brand of plain greek yogurt, and I like it. You might want to try it if you haven't already.

I love Fage. Definitely my favorite greek yogurt.

The Trader Joe's by me carries the larger Fage sizes.  So does The Fresh Market if you have one of those in the area.

I've seen the big containers at Publix and Kroger.

Price Chopper has them!

Then Calvin lies!  (Or was being dumb and didn't look in the right place.)  I will have to investigate further.

Because of this thread, I bought a giant tub of Fage 2% plain. Yummmmmmmmm

2% is so much better than the 0%

[secretlyevil]

Plain fage 2% and granola is my fav. Sometimes I see it in a large container but mostly I see the 0%.
