Yoplait Greek Yogurt review and 'Nourish Your Inner Goddess' Giveaway


Disclosure: Yoplait provided me with a free product (via coupons), information and a spa gift pack via MyBlogSpark. I have generously been provided an extra spa "Nourish Your Inner Goddess' gift pack to giveaway to one of my readers.

Yoplait Yogurt has a new product called Greek. Yoplait's Greek yogurt is thicker than other yogurts I buy and has zero fat. On top of that, if you are following a gluten free diet, it is gluten free and labeled as such right on the package.

I tried the strawberry, but there are three other Yoplait Greek flavors to try including vanilla, blueberry and honey vanilla. My local Food Lion stocked just two flavors, so if you don't see the flavor that you are looking for there, try another store. Taste? Confession time. It wasn't to my liking. I liked the thicker consistency, but I wasn't a fan of the taste. However, my son really liked it and I do plan to try other varieties.

Some nutritional info:

One container of Yoplait Greek's strawberry flavor has just 130 calories. It also is rich in protein at 23% of daily value. In addition, it has 15% of daily value of vitamin A and 30% of daily value of calcium. To read the nutritional labeling information online, please click here.

Want to give it a try? Here is a link provided to me to a Bricks printable coupon for Yoplait Greek that is .30/1.

************************ GIVEAWAY *****************************

As I mentioned, Yoplait and MyBlogSpark have generously extended me the opportunity to try out a "Nourish Your Inner Goddess" spa set, which included a terry cloth towel to wrap myself in as well as other spa accessories (see photo below). No, it isn't a photo of me in the towel (I'll spare you that view!) but it is a picture of what you can expect to receive if you are chosen the winner of the giveaway.



This spa package will include the items pictured above
(Yoplait Greek yogurt will be included as coupons.)


Doesn't that spa package look sweet? I know you want to win it, so here's how you can enter:

1. Leave me a comment below (mandatory) telling me which flavor of Yoplait Greek that you want to try (strawberry, vanilla, honey vanilla or blueberry).

2. Extra entry (must leave separate comment) telling me what flavor of Yoplait Greek yogurt you would like to see in the future.

3. Extra entry: become my Google Friend (must leave separate comment) because everyone can use more friends. Even me!

4. Extra entry: post a link to this blog post via Twitter or Facebook and leave me the url to the posting in a separate comment.

5. Extra entry: subscribe to my blog (must leave separate comment) here.

This giveaway contest will run through April 11 at 11:59 PM. I will choose a winner via Random.org on April 12. If you are chosen, I will email you to obtain your name and address info so that I can have the prize shipped to you. You must respond within 48 hours of my email or I will be forced to chose another winner.

One last thing... check out this cool movie trailer for Clash of the Titans. It looks like it is going to be an awesome movie and may be worth seeing at the movie theater for me, rather than renting it and watching it at home.



Thanks again to Yoplait and MyBlogSpark for the opportunity to try the new Greek yogurt and also for providing a spa package for me and one to giveaway.
