Does anyone know of a make of non-dairy yoghurt that isn't soya but that is also fat-free (not low-fat)?

A quick google search hasn't thrown much up beyond what I already know.

Love your name Mel O'Dramatic

Not sure if this is any good for you - They did not comment on the fat content

Morrison's website shows that this 350g tub of a new'ish Product
A THICK YOGHURT
Called >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The COCONUT Collaborative - It is yummy !!!!
& is sold with a Cute Turquoise cardboard cover

It states that it is
Dairy free
Gluten free
no soya [
no added sugar


https://groceries.morrisons.com/webs...+col_SHELFVIEW

[ It Was £3-37 >>>>> I Paid JUST 9p & bought about 4 of them from Morrison's about 2 weeks ago ]

DRAT & PS just saw that per 100g it has
Fat 11.5g
- saturated 10.3g
- monounsaturated 1.1g

How about this article :-

Good luck finding a suitable yoghurt

Thanks CC. I'm guessing you like chocolate

I just googled them - they do look yummy but sadly are quite high in saturated fat (coconut tends to be) and I'm after fat free.

It seems there's no such thing as fat free plain yoghurt that's dairy free but not soya.

Possibly sheep or goat yoghurt but imho they taste vile

Hi again
yes I do like Choccy and I did over indulge a few days ago
because I had opened them
The Hershey's and My Supermarket Milk choccy block all got eaten in two sessions within 24hours

How about this article - that I have just found

https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rc...YCs-FcmVGYrpnQ

It seems you could make this yoghurt with these milks
=========== rice, almond, and hemp milk.
But - I don't know if these milks have fat

Nowt wrong with a chocolate binge every now and then. It's good for the soul if not the waistline.

That's an interesting article. If I wasn't so bone idle I would make my own. I just want to be able to walk into a supermarket (or healthfood shop - I'm not fussy) and buy it off the shelf.

Thank you! I shall continue the search too.

If you love your chocolate and find fighting the cravings is too much, have you tried Cadbury's Freddo bars? I have one of those per day. They're only 25g but I find they're just enough to satisfy me and better than reaching for the normal sized ones.

Thanks for the tip

On the 9th March had a good look around that night - and I asked 2 staff members

I saw the Fage Total 0% Fat Authentic Greek Yogurt -
I could not see Soy mentioned in the ingredients
but it did contain dairy

Just had an idea
Could your doctor or the dietitian possibly help you with your yoghurt choices / requirements ??

Ah thank you CC. Yes I have eaten that one before, and it's lovely but sadly it's dairy so I can't continue eating it.

I went to a health food shop today and was talked into buying a vegan one made with coconuts. Not really what I wanted, and it's definitely not dairy or soya, but I think it's got a fair amount of fat in it. I'm pretty sure what I want doesn't actually exist. The man in the health-food shop was doubtful.

Alpro almond milk yoghurt.

Not fat free but why do you need it to be? Yoghurt is fairly low in calories anyway. Just cut down on your chocolate consumption instead.

Yoghurt with dried blueberries and dried cherries is great if you need something sweet.

It doesn't have to be fat free, I'd just prefer it if it was.

The Alpro almond yoghurt contains soya, so that's no good either, but thanks anyway.

Or make them yourself with a yoghurt maker or a thermos in the airing cupbaord.

I get nervous about what goes into Alpro products. Some contain a cancer causing thickener.

I could do that stud, but it's not gonna happen, mainly cos I'm far too lazy.

I didn't know that about Alpro products. Does that include the milk as well as the yoghurts?

Cargeenan is what I look out for. That's the main offender

Never heard of it. I've done a quick check on the ingredients of some of the Alpro products and it's not on there, but I'll be sure to look out for it.

A couple of nights ago - I asked a M&S Manager about the yoghurt that you want to buy
after I had already had a good look at their yoghurt labels
She said Waitrose may have what you are wanting
as they have extended their ** Free From ** ranges

I am not near any Waitrose shops - I have never even seen one

good luck

Found another one just now - on Morrison's web site
>>>>>>>>>>>>>> but it does have Fat
The Brand name is = Koko Dairy Free
Free From / Milk Free / Dairy Free Alternatives / Yogurts & Desserts

Fresh / Yogurts / Goats Milk & Dairy Free / Dairy Free

@
Coconut House, 15 Aston Court,George Road,Bromsgrove,B60 3AL,

It seems hard to find a product that ticks off **** ALL three boxes [ Fat / Dairy & Soy ] ****
but you can find several - that will tick - 2 - of the boxes

Thanks for all your efforts CC, much appreciated. Sadly I can't bear anything with goat's milk or cheese, so that one's out.

However, my cousin says that the people who do Total yoghurt also do a sheep's yoghurt which is obviously dairy/soya free. She thinks Waitrose might do it. She's not sure about the fat free thing and I think you're right, it's probably going to be impossible to find all three.

Mel, sheep's milk is dairy - all milk that comes from mammals is dairy and contains lactose. Sheep and goat milk is not much lower in lactose than cow's milk in fact, so if you are lactose intolerant you need to steer clear of them.
