Please check out my disclosure policy for more details!I’m really not sure why all the products I’ve felt like reviewing have been yogurts lately, but my boyfriend bought me this one, so I suppose we can blame him for this review. Here’s why I think the dairy-free Oui by Yoplait vanilla yogurt is very worth a try.
Dairy-Free Oui by Yoplait has a great texture
A big thing to consider with all dairy-free yogurts is how the texture comes out. I have bought far too many dairy-free yogurts that come out runny, and while they taste pretty good outside of that, when you’re expecting something thicker, it can be disappointing.
I think it was a good call by Yoplait to use coconut, which tends to result in thicker textures, in their yogurt. Plus, I try not to overdo it on soy products anyway. The result is a yogurt that isn’t quite as thick as I thought it would be, but a lot thicker than most dairy-free yogurts. It’s also really smooth, no grit to it at all.
It is sweeter than other vanilla dairy-free yogurts I’ve tried
If you like a yogurt more on the unsweetened side, this product may not be for you. I’ll be posting a review later on a yogurt from Coconut Collective, which was the opposite end of the spectrum – completely unsweetened and hard to get used to. However, Yoplait’s version is sweeter than some other brands I’ve tried, including Daiya and So Delicious (from what I remember). However, it makes for a great dessert substitution or something to eat when you’re craving something sweet. At least you get some probiotics in with your indulgence instead of no benefit at all.
Added bonus: You get a cool glass jar at the end
Because Oui by Yoplait comes in actual glass jars, you’re left with a product that’s easier to reuse or recycle. My boyfriend likes using the glass jars to burn tealight candles, so I gave the leftover jar to him to do just that.
Going into a new, low-FODMAP diet, I am not able to eat yogurts for a period of time. However, you will continue to see some reviews pop up for products I’ve used in the past, since I have a healthy backlog of those. I’ll be adding in reviews for other products that are low-FODMAP friendly and label them as such in the months to come.
For those of you who can eat yogurts, I want to hear from you: What would you like to see me review in the future, once I introduce them back into my diet? What other, non-yogurt products would you like to see me try? Tell me in the comments or email dairyfreestate@gmail.com
