AgroFarma, a US dairy product manufacturer, has introduced Chobani Greek Yogurt, a Greek-style yogurt that contains more than twice the amount of protein in traditional American yogurts.
Chobani is also all-natural and made using traditional European straining methods.
“Many of the popular American yogurt brands add artificial ingredients and fillers such as high fructose corn syrup and corn starch to enhance taste, or have the equivalent of a candy bar in sugar content," said nutritionist Sophie Pachella, founder of US nutrition performance business EatStrong. "That is not healthy eating."
Chobani contains five live and active cultures, and is made with milk that contains no artificial hormones. Chobani is also high in calcium and contains active probiotics for healthy digestion.
There are six non-fat varieties available: strawberry, blueberry and peach, as well as honey, vanilla and plain (which is also available in 2% and 10% fat varieties).
Chobani’s cup-style packaging is available in three sizes: 6oz, 16oz and 32oz.
