Fage Yogurt
Hey all. I heard about a yogurt called Fage Yogurt, pronounced Fah-Yeh. Anyway, it's got no fat, 9 grams total carbs, 120 calories, and 20 grams of protein per serving. It's unflavored, and I read that people mix it with a little splenda and fruit, or sugar free preserves. That's a lot more protein than the average yogurt, even the carb master at Kroger. Just thought I'd pass the info along. I found it at Harris Teeter, but I hear it's a Trader Joes too. They have a website where they post recipes to add to it. It's www.fageusa.com.
Take care.

It is WONDERFUL! I usually add a little Splenda to it and some frozen fruit, like strawberries. It makes it very good that way. The only place I can find it around here is one of the Harris Teeters carries it ... not all of them. Unfortunately, I don't have a Trader Joe's around here that I know of.

Trader JOes is an excellent store for protein. I found on the bottom shelf a single can serviing off liquid protein drinks that were actually in ALL honesty pretty good and not gritty. They were low carb and high in protein. I forget the exact amount and my hubby threw out the empty can I saved from my last batch. I got them at the store in Northern VA. I also got some Lavash Flat Bread, low fat, 4 grams of protein that my size 2 daughter loves and I can stomach. I also found multiseed with soy sauce flavored rice crackers that contain Omega 3's, They also have a higher protein Trader Joe cranberry oatmeal with higher protein, Buffalow burgers much higher protein than beef and also the greek yogart that is 20grams of protein. I am sure I could find more but coming back on the train didn't leave much room. THe new store is in Cary. You can find there web site but you can't order from it unfortunately. Here at the beach are grocery stores ....well they just suck! ANd they are expensive do to the tourist trap issue. Seafood is great if you can stomach it. I could at one time but now it is mostly only crab that I can do with out getting the nasea effect.. Bad karma for a wife of an x fisherman who grew up on stews, seafood, collards, dumplings, light rolls, fried fat back and everything seasoned with fat back. I know he must love me cause I don't cook like "Ma" no more!
