How it differs from similar foods
Compared to full-fat yogurt, this lowfat version contains less fat, which can result in a slightly less rich mouthfeel. It is also distinct from Greek yogurt, which is strained to remove more whey, resulting in a thicker consistency and a more concentrated flavor profile. This original style offers a balanced texture and taste.
