Hi All,
Just wondering which type of commercial yogurt is the best. I won;t be able to make my own so am looking to purchase some from the supermarket.
I had a quick look at a few brands and found them to have ADDED SUGAR!, are there any that does not have added sugar or which is the best of them all?
Thanks!
DS has Jalna Biodynamic Full fat yoghurt. It's the one with the dark green lid. He loves it, and I figure it's healthier than most yoghurts out there (if you can call them yoghurt!).
Is it okay for an 8mth old to eat adult yogurt?
Yoghurts like Jalna are better for babies than most "children's" yoghurt.....most of the kids ones are full of sugar. So bizarre!
Ahhh the things I feed my children thinking that they're healthy...*adds Jalna to shopping list and plans to turn current yoghurt into icy poles*
:redface: sorry Nelle, I should think before typing at that time of night. The Jalna stuff is yummy though!
I concur - I can't go back to the Yoplait or Ski etc after I started buying Jalna (or Greek yoghurt when I'm feeling stingy) for DS - sooooo yum!
Yep Jalna here too! Its sooooo yummy! We buy a big tub and feed her out of that because shes the only one who has it! :rofl: Well I do too but that's ok! Great idea on the icy pole sticks! You can get them in little tubs too if you need to take them with you somewhere or we just transfer to a little container. It works out to be a similar price to the kids ones too.
:rofl: Don't apologise for telling the truth Janie! I just think it's funny that Nelle, who questions most things, didn't think to check the ingredients on her yoghurt! :D
Jalna all the way. Nothing artificial in it. A bit exxy but all the family can eat it.
Absolutely Jalna here too! It's quite disturbing to me the amount of sugar (that is refined cane sugar as opposed to fructose/fruit juice used to sweeten) in commercial yoghurts. Al of the advertising for Wiggles, Dora etc and it really is not health ful for little ones (or us biguns!). Shame on the Wiggles I reckon for endorsing sugar to be fed to our babies!
I use the easiyo sachets & make our own. It's REALLY easy - just mix the powder with cold water, put it in the canister & leave it for 8 hours. I buy the natural sachets - so there is no sugar at all. I started out by adding pureed fruit to it to make it sweeter, but now DS will eat it on its own.
