I've posted before about how much we enjoy yogurt in our house, and though we have a couple of brands that we frequently buy, I was curious about Activia and its new Activia Selects, which I've never tried. When Mom Central Consulting was looking for bloggers to try it out, I wanted to check it out.
I bought one of the Activia Selects Greek Yogurt, an extremely popular type of yogurt at the moment. Though I'm not a huge "regular" yogurt fan, I do enjoy Greek yogurt and its creamier, thicker texture.
Our grocery store carried the strawberry flavor, which was tasty and creamy. It was a little light on actual fruit chunks, but still good.
Yogurt is one of our favorite go-to snacks in our house. It's nutritious, full of protein and calcium, and it keeps us from feeling hungry longer than foods like cereal and carbs. It's wonderful as a dessert too, with fresh fruit and granola, when you want something sweet after a meal but not too heavy.
Admittedly, it is high in sugar, but so is cake and that's missing a lot of the beneficial things that yogurt provides.
Activia Selects is also available in Parfait with granola and French Style, which is apparently silky and creamy. I would like to have tried that too, but our grocery didn't carry it (yet). You can sign up for a coupon for a free sample on the Activia Selects website.
Disclosure: I wrote this review while participating in a campaign by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of Activia and received a gift card to facilitate my review and a promotional item to thank me for taking the time to participate. However, my opinions are entirely my own and I have not been paid to publish positive comments.

I love this yogurt. I didn't think I would, since it has artificial-ish sugars. It is really sweet. Still, I love it and all the fun flavors it comes in.
ReplyDeleteMmmm. Parfait!
