About it
Most flavored yogurt is fruit-on-the-bottom or blended; the blended style dominates single-serve cups. The fruit is usually a cooked, sweetened preparation folded in after culturing, which is why the yogurt underneath tastes the same across brands.
Storing it
Flavored yogurt freezes into acceptable frozen snacks for up to 2 months; eating quality after thawing is best in smoothies.
Using it
Eat fruit yogurt as a snack or breakfast, or fold it into smoothies. It also works in quick parfaits layered with granola and berries.
Swaps & pairings
Plain yogurt with a spoonful of jam is the same product assembled at the table, with the sweetness under your control.
