Yoghurt Buying Tips and Guide

Whichever yoghurt brand or flavor you choose to buy, below are major factors to consider before buying yoghurt:

  • Where to Buy: Yoghurt is a fresh product with no preservatives. Always buy it from well-established supermarkets with reliable refrigeration and power backup. The manufacturer can only guarantee its quality up to dispatch. Therefore, avoid buying yoghurt from local shops that keep it on shelves without refrigeration.
  • Storage: The optimal temperature for storing most yoghurts is between 4 to 8 degrees Celsius.
  • Flavor: Different brands offer a variety of flavors. Choose based on personal taste preferences and dietary needs. If you are trying to avoid sugar or looking for an unsweetened option, plain yoghurt is the best choice.
  • For Kids: For young babies under 1-year-old, opt for plain/natural or vanilla yoghurt to avoid artificial coloring.
  • Health Considerations: Check the nutritional information listed on the back of the cup. If you have health issues or concerns, consider the nutrient content in the yoghut. For instance, if you are on a low-carb diet, look at the carbohydrate amount. If you are concerned about weight, check the fat content.
