Greek Yogurt vs Greek Style Yogurt
I compared it to the Fage and the Fage is a bit better (less carbs, but about the same amount of protein). Today, I added a Tbsp of almond butter to half a container and it became a peanut butter coffee treat. Oh that was yummy. I'm going to try the Fage next week and see how it compares since I can always add flavors.

I have a bunch of the sugar free torani syrups, I added about a half tbl of salted caramel and a packet of splenda. It was delicious. The thickness is hard to get used to, was much different than my danon light and fit greek.
I love plain FAGE yogurt because of how much protein it contains (20 g) and that its only ingredients are milk and live active yogurt cultures. FAGE does NOT contain added sweeteners, artificial flavorings, modified corn starch, thickeners, preservatives, or powdered milk/cream/protein.
For a sweet taste, I add fresh fruit (e.g. blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, or bananas). I do not consume artificial sweeteners at all but if you do I think it would better for you to add it yourself, sparingly.
I have tried Dannon Oikos Triple Zero yogurt and did not like it at all. IMO, it is way way too sweet, tastes artificial and has a bad aftertaste.
