Red fallon,

Try to find a brand other than Dannon if you can. Ideally, the label should list at least two active cultures. Acidolphus and Bifidus are the most common. It's better if you can find one with 4, and six is great.

Stonefield Farms from NJ has six cultures and should be readily available. I know some Americans have found it at Safeway, but certainly a whole foods market should have it.

I use a local product here, recommended by Karen. It's called Olera Farms and is made in Langley for all you Vancouver locals. It comes in a handy bucket-size for only $5.99. It has four active cultures. I get it because the Stonefielf Farms is the same price for a much smaller container.

Low fat or full fat doesn't really matter to us. But full-fat is creamier, thicker and richer.

You can also look for Balkan or Greek style yogurt which is VERY thick and delicious.
