Simply Gogurt

I went to the grocery store and was pleasantly surprised to see a new kind of yogurt for kids - Simply Gogurt. Now, I've seen the regular Gogurt before, and wasn't impressed - full of artificial junk and HFCS. This variety is not like that! It is colored with veggie and fruit juice and has real sugar in it.

I tried to find a link to it, but I guess it is so new that they don't have it on there yet. So I took some pics myself. I found it in Food Lion, not sure who else carries it. Yogurt tubes are a great on-the-go option because no spoon is required! You can also freeze them for a nice summer treat.

Edited to add the link to Simply GoGurt...it is up now!

P.S. Stoneyfield also makes something similar that is organic. It is just nice to me to see "regular" brands change up their products in a positive way!

Let's talk about yogurt

Yogurt makes a great snack, breakfast, etc. It is an excellent source of calcium, and the probiotics are great for the digestive system. Most yogurt targeted to children is horrible - full of sugar, HFCS, artificial colors/flavorings, etc...not much better than giving them candy.

Instead of being lured by these colorful products, I buy plain Dannon yogurt and add goodies to it - a tiny swirl of chocolate syrup, vanilla, fruit, cereal, etc. It has half the sugar of Trix yogurt, and no funky additives.

I try to teach my kids that in most cases, the food that is marketed to them is usually not good for them. Commercials and cartoon characters are just a plot to get your money!
