Chobani Review and Giveaway

I love yogurt and I try to eat it at least twice a week. The taste of it is great and I love the health benefits it provides.

About Chobani:
Mustafa Dogan is Chobani’s master yogurt maker. He’s an artisan armed with years of yogurt-making experience and is responsible for crafting the rich, deliciousness that is Chobani.

Mustafa custom blends special yogurt cultures just for Chobani. We add these to the milk that we receive daily from local farms to make yogurt. We then strain this yogurt to make it outrageously creamy and ridiculously high in protein.

This unique straining process is what makes Chobani Greek yogurt “Greek” and full of flavor and health benefits:
· All natural. No preservatives. No artificial flavors.
· Free of synthetic growth hormones: No rBST-treated milk.
· Includes 5 live & active cultures, including 3 probiotics.
· Made with real fruit.
· Twice the protein of regular yogurts.
· A good source of bone-building calcium.
· Gluten-Free and Kosher-Certified.
· Safe for people with corn, nut and soy allergies.

Chobani comes in a range of different flavors: black cherry, lemon, plain, blueberry, honey, raspberry, peach, pomegrante, strawberry, and vanilla.

I was sent a variety of 6 oz yogurt cups to review.


The cups are a generous size and hold a lot of yogurt. I never had Greek yogurt before, but have heard good things about it. I was interested to try it. I tried the blueberry first and the yogurt was much denser, thicker, and creamier than normal yogurt. It also had bits of blueberry pieces on the bottom of the cup. Upon first bite, it was very creamy and had a milkshake consistency to it. The blueberry flavor was prevalent and I did like that. It took a while to get used to the extra creaminess of it. I did not love it, but I am willing to give it a second chance. I think it's the type of food that takes getting used to it and you probably have to have it more than once to fully enjoy it. Greek yogurt is extremely healthy for you and has fantastic health benefits. I do like that the yogurts come in so many different flavors for everyone's taste preference.
