- I went to the yogurt aisle at the grocery store to tell you what types of yogurt to buy, and which ones to avoid. All of the info is down below. There are so many yogurt options at the grocery store, many of which are loaded with added sugar and have very little health benefits. I would highly recommend only buying organic, 100% grass-fed greek style yogurt. What aisle of the grocery store next??? Let us know! Mad Love..Bobby...Dessi...Art...and Baby Flav XOXO

Why I recommend buying Organic, 100% grass-fed greek yogurt:
Grass-fed means the cows never ate any grains, especially gmo corn and soy. This makes the nutrition way higher than convectional dairy. Organic yogurt has 62% more omega 3 fatty acids than traditional yogurt, bc corn and soy inhibit omega 3 productions. And promote omega 6..the bad one. This is even higher in 100% grass-fed yogurt. Grass fed yogurt is up to five times higher in conjugated linoleic acid than that from cows fed grains year-round.
Greek yogurt has twice the amount of protein from regular yogurt, bc it’s strained. It’s more expensive bc it takes 4 cups of milk to make 1 cup of Greek yogurt..as opposed to 1:1..Higher is protein and lower in sugar, bc the some of lactose is strained away. It makes you feel fuller for longer, bc of the combo of fat and protein..stay away from low/no fat yogurt
My fav brands of organic yogurt:
Stonyfeld organic 100% grass-fed Greek yogurt
Organic valley 100% grass-fed plain yogurt
Nancy’s probiotic 100% grassfed whole milk yogurt
My fav non-dairy yogurt:
Forager cashew yogurt
Kite hill almond milk yogurt
My fav organic kefir:
Maple hill organic whole milk kefir, 100% grass-fed
Red wood hill farm goat kefir, 100% grass-fed

Chobani is bad?
I have to try to find a good yogurt to eat. That is not hard on my GI..
FlavCity with Bobby Parrish Lol. It’s pronounced KEY-FUR
Will buy these while am in usa in September bcos dont have them in Singapore drooling over my samsung galaxy j4 love your dad and stories always brighten up my day love your videos making me hungry Thanks Ramya
Thoughts on the "two good Greek yogurt" by lightandfit. Only two grams of sugar? What's the catch??
After watching you for a couple weeks now i sense a pattern; 85% of grocery store shelf items are to be avoided!
Yes but the trouble is and always has been not everyone can afford to buy the healthiest foods! I wish these video's would tell prices more than they do. Yes everyone would love to always buy organic and natural but they usually cost twice what the unhealthy ones do. SAD
@@tuneaddicted at least buying products with clean ingredients, even inorganic is good enough for someone who can't afford the best. Organic dairy isn't too expensive either, grassfed is the best but organic is good enough for someone on a budget.
@@tuneaddicted true,but..we throw away so much and spend a lot on eating out. If we all cut that out we should be able to afford better food
@@tuneaddicted everyone can afford to be healthy. Buy organic beans and veg and eggs.. You don't need products like yogurt
Yep
I used to get sick when I ate traditional, non-organic yogurt. I thought I was allergic to dairy, but when I switched over to organic yogurt (using Aldi's non-sweetened brand) I noticed I didn't get sick to my stomach. I stopped using non-organic yogurt after that. I think the GMO corn/etc; does affect people in ways they don't even know yet.
I love it when people come from around the corners and ask you questions. The interaction is really fun to watch. It makes it seem even more spontaneous than it already is. Love the undercover explorations and discoveries.
Thank you Bobby and Art for putting these videos together! I always thought I was eating somewhat clean but you guys shed some light on do’s and don’ts of everyday items I eat. Thanks Jeb
Bobby, please go over cheeses.
I love your "what to buy what to avoid" video. They are very educational and helpful!!!
I agree
Yes we need that
Grass Fed Dairy. Get Kerrygold Cheese and Butter.
Any Dairy should be Grass Fed.
@@KevinValentin Kerrygold is very good.
Bobby, I want to thank u for opening my eyes on healthy food selections, organic and non organic, in my daily meal preparations for my family. I really enjoy your show!
I can’t thank you enough. I recently found out I have Graves’ disease and have had a very fast metabolism my entire life. Taking my medication has slowed down my metabolism and I’ve gained weight, which has really made me struggle with depression. I also didn’t know what to eat because I’ve been able to eat whatever I want for so long! These videos (where you walk us to the grocery store) are life-changing and so incredibly helpful for someone like me. Thank you!
I have learned so much. I'm ashamed to say I wasn't reading labels. I love these shopping hauls! Congratulations on your new book!!
I would swear that Lifeway (a Chicago company!) plain Kefir helped to save my husband's life. He had to be on a course of IV antibiotics following sepsis from a ruptured appendix. I had been reading about C-Diff infections in hospital patients and knew his gut bacteria would be decimated. The kefir worked beautifully- he recovered his health and still drinks it everyday!
So glad he's better!
Lifeway is a company that is either Coca-Cola or sponsoring Lifeway. You can organic kefir from Whole Foods,
i believe it, but you can get better quality kefir from 100% organic grassfed milk ;)
FlavCity with Bobby Parrish you can also buy kefir grains from Amazon and make your own kefir which I have been wanting to do.
nmoss m I love kefir and I make mine at home.That thing heals like magic!
Just went grocery shopping and I was so overwhelmed with the yogurt isle! This came out at the perfect time!
I love Chobani yogurt. But after watching this I'm switching to the 100% Grassfed. Thanks for all your videos.
Dairy is inflammatory for me. Before I had a problem with it though, I used to get the plain organic Greek yogurt and just add my own raw honey, fruit, whatever. Like what you were saying. Now I like getting coconut milk yogurts.😋 But you're right about those sugars.😫 Anyway I'm so glad I found your channel! I enjoy your videos very much.🙂
😱 I can’t believe how much I just learned. Thank you for helping me to open my eyes with yogurt! 👍👍👍
love to hear that!!!
@@BobbyParrish John
Thank you Bobby and Art. It's so nice to have someone help us find the foods we need to eat. Thank you for sharing.
our pleasure nancy!
Your analysis is the best! I often try to buy stuff only after I go through the ingredients but there are times where I do not understand what something means. You are educating me, thanks!
Just went to the market and felt less overwhelmed by the amount of yogurts in the aisles!! Knew what to avoid and buy thanks to your helpful info. Thank you!! :)
I eat the organic valley grassmilk yogurt 5 days a week for lunch. I use a serving size and put half a cup of frozen blueberries on it. I wait a few minutes for them to thaw a bit and stir it together and it turns the plain yogurt into a natural blueberry flavor. It’s low in sugar, filling and healthy❤️ glad to know I was buying the right yogurt. Great video!
Where do you buy the organic valley grass milk yogurt?
@@englerwhi I was buying it at Publix bec I lived in the south then but now I’m in Washington state and I buy it at Haggen
@@Vlogsoup thank you!!
YESSS this was SOOO helpful. I’m so sick of the store having 100 options and styles of yogurt. I just want the good stuff!
Please go over cheese & string cheeses next.
👍🏼
Try shopping north of the border in castro country. It’s all shit
You deserve every penny you earn from selling that book. You changed my life. Thank you so much.
Excellent. My eye balls start rolling in my head when I look in the yogurt aisle.
Just bought vanilla yogurt because I love it. I do avoid the fruit ones due to the sugar.
These videos are such a game changer! I just started doing research and trying to eat better so this is so so helpful! Keep it coming haha
I love Brown Cow yogurt. It was bought out many years ago so I'm going to reevaluate the ingredients after your informative video. Thank you!
Hi, I recently found you, and I can’t believe how informative you are. I have learned so much from you. Your never too old to learn new things. 58yrs young! 😊 just ordered your cook book, can’t wait to get it. I learned so much from this video. I definitely was buying the worst yogurts. 🤨 ahhhh! Thanks
Ever since watching your videos I have been learning a lot and now I read the ingredient labels, thank you for these informative videos!
Thank you so much for including non-dairy yogurt at the end! I watched the video to support you and gain that knowledge but I've been buying non dairy yogurt lately cuz the real stuff upsets my stomach. Thanks for all of this helpful info!
👍🏼
Love opening youtube to a video at the grocery store yay! Good morning everyone :)
Good morning!
woohoo!
Love these videos! Could you do one about protein shakes? I find them helpful for when I'm on the go but I want to find a "good" one. Thanks!
Is it normal to feel so awful and scared after watching these videos? You are extremely smart and helpful but I get so frustrated realizing almost everything I eat is the worst
Erika Barth I feel the same way!
If you feel good and you look good and you're doing good and your blood work looks good keep doing you! 👍 Don't stress because of some guy on the internet saying your yogurt is subpar. Orthorexia is more destructive than a little sugar in your yogurt.
Thank you so much for doing all the research that many of us don't have the time and energy to do. I was very pleased to find the Siggy brand got a thumbs up. I try to read labels but I'm not as knowledgeable as you and I did choose it. I especially love the tall bottle drink when it's on sale. Keep up the good work!
I was looking at yogurts in the grocery store today but left w/o buying anything because the organic ones had pectin and/or tapioca starch which seemed odd. Will stop at Whole Foods later. I like the organic grass fed maple hill yogurt. Thanks for all your videos! So helpful!
Thanks for the education my friend - just found you on youtube and subscribed after watching. I REEALLY like that you have a great attitude - I can tell you enjoy teaching and sharing knowledge for people's benefit / health instead of lecturing / talking down to them. I'm NOT over-sensitive , by the way , just an observation after many years on youtube that some people with nutritional channels have an "I'm smarter and healthier than you" attitude that is counter productive to effective learning and inspiration. Your approach and delivery speaks volumes of good about you and your work - thanks again !!
Just ordered your book on Amazon!! So excited!! Thanks for educating me about healthy food!!
I was buying Stonyfield. Then I switched to Siggi's. Both plain. I'm so happy these were on Bobby's list!! In another video, he had recommended Forager plain non-dairy yogurt. I snatched it up because it was on sale @ Whole Foods! Yay! :)
I ADORE the Icelandic Provisions yogurt, it's INCREDIBLE.
I can't digest the Fage for some reason. The last time I ate some, my stomach just straight up kept it sitting in my stomach and fermenting and about six hours later, I got dizzy and sick to my stomach and threw up like I was drunk.
Wow, and I love Fage. Their full fat plain Greek yogurt is the only kind I eat. It’s sooo good! It’s the only Greek yogurt company that is owned and run by a Greek family in Greece. They now have a plant in NY state, but for the rest of the world, all their yogurt is still manufactured in Greece...the real deal.
I agree, it's the best
I'm just starting to learn to cook, and I'm learning everything from u! Good job and thank u for sharing all the life hacks!
Bobby I love your content on UA-cam and Instagram. I can’t wait to cook from your cook book. Say hi to Dessy from another Bulgarian :). I'm sure she can tell you that in Bulgaria you can have the best yogurt in the world. Here is my suggestion: If you want quality yogurt full of probiotics and no sugar, then make it yourself. I stopped buying yogurt 7 years ago and that was my best decision ever. I use a $20 yogurt maker and I purchase yogurt cultures online. You have to be careful when you buy yogurt cultures because some brands contain sugar too. I buy only organic and grass-fed milk to make my yogurt. It is very easy and much cheeper to do it yourself. I grew up eating homemade yogurt and I can't find a store brand that can compare to that taste.
Congrats on your FIRST COOKBOOK being released on 5/15/19 as I’m confident that you’ll be creating and producing another. Finally May 15 has another reason to be a good date other than my Birthday, no joke. I recently started Keto and looking forward to the release of your cook book as I’m having a difficult time finding wonderfully great tasting recipes other than your and Demi’s cooking recipes. Again, congratulations and the bestest of wishes on your first cookbook!!!
wow..happy bday..that is amazing...and thanks for the kind words !!!
I have been seeing your videos before your girls were born. I would see them once in a while but you have grown in knowledge with respect to knowing what dose harm to our health. Thanks.
Thank you for all of your hard work educating us on the food industry and all of the things we should be eating or avoiding.
Bruh Bobbi is a lame.First if all Breyers is all natural I don’t know what this clown is talking about.Where did he get his degree from clown college lmfbao man please.
Oh how I miss growing up back in my country where my dad used to own a farm and my mom used to make homemade yogurt. We had sort of all fruit 🌳 you can think of. I was happy and didn’t know😩
Another great video! 😁👍🏻 Congratulations on the book! Yay! 💐💐💐
Binge watching your UA-cam channel. Loving it. Loving info. From an old school nutritionist\ hippie. Glad my life style ideas and practice is being channeled through you and on a worldwide platform!!! :)
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing! I didn’t know about kefir, but I’m gonna start buying it now for myself and children (because of the probiotics). The “everything you need to know” videos are so informative. Thanks for putting out such informative videos 😃
Bobby, I tried from Aldi the other day, a 'yoghurt' called Quark. I absolutely LOVED IT. For some reason I cannot have yogurt, but I tolerate whole milk? Anyway, this Quark thing Is DELICIOUS, and I tolerated it perfectly. Love the Cashew option as well! ❤️
Aldi carries Quark? I’m excited and need to go there tomorrow!
I don’t know if anyone will see this but just in case, I make my own sweet fruit blend to squeeze in to plain greek yogurts.
Put a bunch of strawberries and other sweet fruit into the blender. Add some vanilla, maple syrup/monk fruit sweetener/agave/allulose/stevia/nothing, blend it up and put in a squeeze bottle in the fridge. Then squeeze it in to sweeten your plain yogurt! It works really well!
@@SpeakTruthBeKind So, I add some citric acid to my mixture to make it last longer in the fridge, and to provide a more complex flavor. By adding citric acid or lemon juice it will last over a week in the fridge. Probably at least two. Honestly mine doesn’t last longer than a week because I eat it for dessert almost every day!
Love your videos. They’ve shown me that I have been eating wrong my whole life
A proud Greek here
That was excellent information. I really appreciate the work you guys put into these. Really is an eye opener.
I feel fortunate to live in an area where it is easy to get local yogurt products from cows that are pasture raised and full fat with cream on top. I have even met some of the cows!! Most of these are not greek yogurt though. But the kefir is awesome.
Wow, thanks for sharing, Bobby! It is mind-boggling the elevated sugar levels in some of these products. Makes sense: high-sugar content, simply negates the "beneficial fats and bacteria" of some yogurt brands that purport.
I love all your insight on what’s going on in our food in America , thank you 😊
Thank you for your help. I have always bought Nancy’s and always plain. Now I know why! Those others are scary!
That stonyfield plain yogurt is so good. I’ve been eating that 32oz one with local raw honey and berries (rasp and black) 🤤 I’m hooked 🥲
that sounds so tasty. i usually have greek yoghurt with agave syrup and strawberries and banana. also some organic pb.
Grass feed yogurt is the best!
I use it even in place of sour cream because it is so reach and creamy.
Only goodness with clean ingredients we should put into our bodies 😋
Good job Bobby on reviewing these yogurts and educating people 👍
This was a very helpful video for me. I didn't know about the sugar content in the yogurt. I've watched a bunch of FlavCity videos and they are all helpful.
Love these videos Bobby! Keep 'em coming!
Thanks for your videos- I was buying Chobani “plain” creamy oat milk- after watching your videos noticed all the added sugar! I’ll adopt your approach for my morning yogurt.
I love Foragers cashew yogurt. I Toupet with frozen wild berries nuts and flaxseed with a sprinkle of Stevia and it’s delicious. Thanks for sharing Bobby
Love ur videos. Thanks for always uploading. Could u do one for granola bars and fruit bars.
Dude. Love it. And all your shopping videos. It’s war out there trying avoid gnarly gmo Monsanto ingredients. They are hiding everywhere! Thanks for doing the leg work and sharing this great info. The more we buy, the cheaper it’ll get. Let’s put Monsanto etc out of business.
Thanks for this. I didn't know any of this. I'm pumping in yogurt all the time. Excellent!
thank you for navigating us through all this. You are needed.
This is why I make my own yogurt. I just keep some fruit puree in the refrigerator to add just before serving.
Amanda Lashley same
Thank you so much!! You have opened my eyes!!
Thank you for this very informative & healthful video clip, Bobby!
I’m obsessed with your tips & insights. Please keep posting. Can you go over seafood? And how to find good quality salmon in more detail than in the salmon cake videos? Please & THANK YOU
Great information. I suggest plain Organic Grass Fed Non-Homogenized yogurt as opposed to a Homogenized yogurt. The process crushes the fat molecules that avoids cream to rise. There is science that homogenization process is not healthy. Two great brands are Organic Valley and Maple Hill.
Healthy Reveals thank you
But is it still full fat when it's organic??
Good one Bobby!! A Flav City video and a cup of coffee. My Saturday morning routine.
💛 ☕ 💚 ☕💛 ☕ 💚
love that routine!!
@@BobbyParrish two weeks or so ago (not too long after your eggs video). I was in the Kroger grocery in the dairy section. There was a lady and her daughter looking obviously boggled over the tons of egg brands and types. So I asked them if they were trying to decide which eggs to buy? They laughed and said yes. I asked if they would like a suggestion. Guess what, Kroger had Vital Farms for $4.99. I pointed them out to her. She asked me why. I explained to her and told her that $4.99 was a great price too. Thank you Bobby for giving me the knowledgeable to help myself, and others be smarter consumers. You're making many parts of my shopping routine less stressful. AND I walk away from my shopping trip feeling so much more condident about the choices I'm making for my family. Muchas Gracias my Friend!
I make my own! It’s so easy in the Instant Pot. I use organic whole grass fed milk. I use a Greek yogurt strainer and it comes out beautifully thick and delicious every time! I pay 4.99 for a half gallon, so it’s cost effective.
Bobby, I am a new subscriber because of this first video I have watched on your channel! Very informative, nice presentation, easy to follow and comprehend! Thank you!
I sure needed this!!!! Thanks Sweet Bobby!
Also 90 percent of light yogurt has aspartame!!!
I just love these videos! I’ve learned so much, thank you! I currently buy Oikos plain Greek , now I need to check the label! I’m sure it’s not organic!
Carrie Palmiter yes I buy that one to the vanilla kind. I was hoping he would talk about it
Sally B I checked my plain and I didn’t see grease fed or organic ....I’ll be looking of or another he suggested next time to try out. I do like the texture of the Oikos though.
Ive learned so much with your channel. Thank you for all the free information and the education you shared to us. God bless you.
PERFECT Info! I needed this! Thank you!!👍👍👍
How about healthy equipment to use to cook with pans, pots, plates baking ware. What about that reusable silicone baking sheet. Aluminum. Microwave etc? Iron, non stick, ceramic etc equipment
Yes. I won a cast iron skillet in a contest, but after the first time I used it, it started turning brown with rust. I thought this must not be healthy, so I tossed it. Sad. Would love to know what to look for in cooking wear as well.
You’re very funny with this question, but it’s a good one! I need to know too
Taylor you tossed an iron skillet?? What the hell!!!
Great suggestions!
@@tayashley3539 You have to season cast iron before you use it for the first time. It should have come with directions. Rust comes right off with a Brillo pad! Cast iron pans are great!
Thanks for all the info. Amazing! Could you do a video in Baby Formula or “Toddler Formula” I know breast is best but the info would be amazing
Hi Bobby! Liking your video series about what needs to know about buying some specific item so far! I’m pregnant and wondering about a good healthy brand of sparkling water to consume. Could you also do a series on water? Hope this’s a worthy topic for other ppl who’re also pursuing health!
I honestly didn’t buy yogurt this week because of your video.. I have to go to Whole Foods lol. Your videos are so helpful!
Thanks. That was actually very helpful.
A good yogurt is Trimona. Bulgarian and 100 percent grass fed! Also, for kefir, I love wallababy whole milk kefir or redwood hill farm goat milk kefir!
Where do y buy them whole foods??
maria klaudia yes
@@elizabethflagler431 thanks
Bobby, kefir can be put through a cheesecloth then the whey will drain out. You can then use it as a cream cheese, which is really good.
Thanks, Bobby, you're not opening my eyes but you're certainly helping to keep them open...
Thank you for all the information, loooove all your videos, if you can please make video about kamboucha?
👍🏼
Well you just confirmed my suspicious about the amount of sugar is in yogurt🤭. Thanks for the video. I’ll definitely will be trying the organic, 100% grass feed cows. 👍
Thanks Bobby and family and Art; your show is both good information and wonderfully fun to listen and watch you, cutie pie Bobby's😊thanks again for the heads up on what's good for you in such a fun practical advice Way! Love you from Washington state
Love these videos! Thx for teaching us how to read labels
Great video Bobby! I always make my own yogurt. Can you please do a similar video on milk? So, I can buy right milk to make my yogurt. Thanks!
Bobby you crack me up with your French accent!
LOVE! your channel! Can you do one on baking essentials?!
Oh great! I’ve been buying Fage plain yogurt for several years, thinking it was healthful. I eat 14 ounces every day, which is 2 8 ounce containers. I also buy Siggi, vanilla and cinnamon vanilla. Even though, I buy a lot of organic food and pasture raised eggs and milk, I thought these were good choices for yogurt. Unfortunately, I just went grocery shopping and stocked up on both of those. No more, from now on I’ll buy organic. I used to buy organic yogurt too.
Please do a video on oat milk. What’s the skinny? Is it really beneficial(low sugar type) for stabilizing cholesterol levels and fiber? How does it compare with almond milk? How do you make it? Thanks!
Do some plain oatmeal add some almond milk to makes go down faster and some banana for flavor 😊 healthiest shit ever.
Fage makes awesome yoghurt and it has the right consistency. The Greek "style" yoghurts often they have nothing in common with original. And the best of the best of Greek yoghurts is the traditional one made of sheep milk and sold in clay pots. Absolutely amazing!!!
My favorite yogurt is the brand called liberte. Its a Mediterranean style yogurt its rich and creamy but im sure its unhealthy. I learned a lot in this video, thank you!
can you cover the non-dairy yogurts please?!
Jasmin Jackson I agree!
Yes!!!! I was hoping he would have mentioned a good coconut based one in the video at least. But I would love to know the ins and outs of what to look for in non dairy yogurts
Jasmin Jackson He did! 10:33 👍🏻
Janice thanks! not sure how i missed it lol
I’ve tried Kite Hill and my daughter and I did not like. It had weird taste.
There are coconut non dairy and they are good. Hard to find no sugar ones.
I pre order your book I can't wait to start putting some flavcity on our family table 😉👍👍👍👍
cant wait either, u r gonna love it! pls make sure to leave a review on amazon after you get it ;)
Thank you so much for the important information you provide to us 🙏
Please, could you make a video for people who are into gym and bodybuilding? About protein bars/shakes/snacks, pre-workout powders, etc?
Very informative! Would love to see you make a video on Protein Smoothies like Bolthouse Farms Vanilla Protein Plus and Odwalla! 🙂
I started getting sour cream instead of yogurt because I can’t find any brand with no added sugar!
Thank you for breaking that up and go down that isle!
Oikos triple zero has 0 added sugar
JENNIFER MARBELLA thank you! I just looked it up! That’s wonderful! I’ll go get some today!
Can you do a video on bread? Including gluten free bread, organic, sprouted, whole grain etc ?
dont eat the Gluten Free White Bread its gross
Base Culture Bread.
