The yogurt isn’t designated as low fat on the container, so I assumed that it was a full-fat variety like Fage Total. But a closer look at the packaging shows that the ingredient list names skim milk then cream, which is how other 2% yogurts are made. As a comparison, the calorie count for the Strawberry-Rhubarb Noosa is 120 calories for 4 ounces, while a Fage 2% with Cherries clocks in at 140 calories for 150 grams (5.29 ounces).
This yogurt taste full-fat, in the best way possible. Creamy and dairy rich, every bite tastes like really good, really fresh whole milk. In fact the flavor of the yogurt is so delicious that while I liked the strawberry-rhubarb layer, I almost preferred the yogurt on its own. The fruit was not too sweet and there was a definite tartness of rhubarb in some bites and mild strawberry in others. The texture of the yogurt is indeed “velvety.” It’s looser than Greek yogurt but not watery. It’s great hybrid for people who wish there was something between Greek yogurt and old school Dannon.
