Dannon Light & Fit Carb Control Yogurt

lowcarbredhead · 03-18-2004, 01:09 PM

I just tried these and they tast pretty darned good. 3 carbs. I tried the raspberries 'n cream and I also purchased peaches 'n cream. Small container - just the right amount for a snack. On sale at Publix for $1.59 for four small cartons.

I also like the Blue Bunny but can't always make it to Super Walmart.

I love these little guys, too..I especially love vanilla creme..put
some fresh strawberries in it..and it's wonderful.

I just tried the vanilla cream too. I added a heaping tablespoon of low carb granola and it was great. It is nice to have a quick, easy and different breakfast.

I love them too, (esp. the raspberry creme!) but they are a little sweet to me. So, I take regular plain yogurt or yocheese and mix it together with the Dannon...it adds that tartness I love in yogurt, and makes 2 servings out of one package!

If you call the company the tell them how much you love them, like I do, they will send you some coupons for 50 cent off and one for a FREE pack.

I LOVE EM!!! I almost cried when I tried that yogurt. I had been on atkins almost 2 months with nothing fruity and creamy. Let me just say.... pure heaven.

You also gotta try the CarbSmart Strawberry Ice Cream. Yummy!

I bought some this week on sale and had a coupon, so I decided to taste one this morning and see what everyone is raving about. I have the raspberries 'n cream. I thought it wasn't sweet enough and had very little flavor. Definitely a disappointment and I'd never pay full price for them. Even on sale and with a $1 off coupon, it only brought them down to the .39 each that I've been paying for Kroger's yogurt and the cups are 2 ounces smaller.

I haven't tried the fruit flavors, but I didn't think the vanilla cream was sweet enough and wouldn't have enjoyed it that way at all. I added a couple of drops of liquid Splenda along with the granola and it was really good then. I also wouldn't pay full price for them. Just not enough in those cups, but I would buy them again on sale.

I thought the raspberry wasn't sweet enough either but one packet of Splenda cured that!

My son and I fought over them! They are TOO small, though!

Have to add my two cents - the vanilla creme is excellent! They are mild, but oh so nice to have flavored yogurt as a quick-to-grab snack.

I think they're worth the money!

I was very disappointed in them especially the LC blue bunny. The SF is sooooooooo much better.

Personally I think they taste like chalk. I can't even get the grandchildren to eat them and they will usually eat ANYTHING.

GoneLoCarb · 03-21-2004, 03:43 PM

Wow, that is cheap!! They are $2.99 for a 4 pack here.... I like them but look for sales.

My favorite is the vanilla with homemade whipped cream on top!

jewel1 · 03-21-2004, 08:53 PM

wow...I had the oppostie reaction to the ones I've tried. I've tried the peach and raspberry and found them way too intensely sweet.

I thinned mine with the Total greek yogurt which is quite sour...then they were fine.

I like these as a breakfast chocie now and then, but for some reason i do get more cravings with them than if I eat a meaty or eggy breakfast.
