whole milk greek yogurt
Description
Whole-milk Greek yogurt is a thick, creamy cultured dairy food made from whole milk and concentrated to remove some of its liquid whey. It provides high-quality complete protein along with calcium, phosphorus, selenium, vitamin B12, riboflavin, and naturally occurring milk fat. Compared with nonfat Greek yogurt, whole-milk Greek yogurt is higher in calories and provides a richer texture and greater energy density while still delivering substantial protein. Traditionally cultured varieties containing live active cultures also provide beneficial bacteria, making plain whole-milk Greek yogurt a nutrient-dense choice for breakfasts, snacks, sauces, dips, and both sweet and savory meals.
