The Benefits:
- Titillated taste buds. Our picks are the cream of the crop.
- Fewer antibiotics in our rivers. About half of all antibiotics in the United States are used on livestock, and can get into groundwater and beyond.
- Healthier bodies. Yogurt contains calcium and immunity-boosting bacteria, plus the organic type has more antioxidants and vitamin E.
- Happy cows. Cows at organic farms eat better, are treated better, and often have more land for stretching their legs.
Personally Speaking:
Some of us just can't shut up about Wallaby's new Dulce de Leche flavor. Best. Yogurt. Ever.
Wanna Try:
- Wallaby - Australian-style, blended yogurt ($1).
- Straus Family Creamery - thick, cream-top yogurt ($4).
- Stonyfield Farm - fat-free in more than 10 classic flavors ($1).
- WholeSoy & Co. - organic, GMO-free option for non-dairy Biters ($1).
Cocktail Fact
Yoplait's strawberry yogurt gets its pink color from crushed female cochineal beetles and their eggs.
Bang For The Bite
Health- and eco-boosts aside, the stuff just tastes good, and organic options are pretty easy to find.
