Trader Joe's has been putting a lot of effort into its yogurt selection lately and its latest innovation is the new Strained Thick & Creamy Plain Greek Yogurt.
While the new product sounds like just another Greek yogurt, Trader Joe's new Strained Thick & Creamy Plain Greek Yogurt has a unique flavor and texture. First, the brand's supplier starts with a combination of whole milk and cream, which is strained using a special process that helps to remove excess whey from the finished product. In addition to its extra creamy and velvety texture, Trader Joe's new Strained Thick & Creamy Plain Greek Yogurt also has a less tangy flavor than other Greek yogurts. And with 15 grams of protein per serving, this product managed to tick all the boxes.
