Soy Yogurt - Nastier Than Poo

I got some to try

I don't know why

It tasted so bad

I've never felt so sad

Just wanted to warn you

It's nastier than poo

I threw the soy yogurt away

So I could live to rue the day

Awww... that makes me sad. I'm a vegetarian trying to gradually turn vegan. I love yogurt and eat it everyday, so I'm not sure what I'm going to replace it with, especially if soy yogurt tastes like poo :-)

Liked your poem anyway!

I loooove soy yogurt and eat it almost every day! What kind did you get and what flavor? I only use vanilla for baking, because otherwise I find it sort of gross, but most of the fruit flavors are great. I've only tried Silk Soy Yogurt, and I'd say my faves are key lime, raspberry, black cherry, and strawberry.

Nomoreexcuses that is a cute poem :) Seriously though I'm surprised you hated the soy yogurt. I was never a huge fan of yogurt but I have tried the soy yogurt and thought it was pretty good. I tried the soy&co raspberry flavor. I also put some of it in a smoothie not too long ago and it turned out excellent. You might have just got a bad brand or flavor. I'd give it another try.

I've never tried soy yogurt, but maybe if you eat it over fruit or with granola it may taste better.

Curious- Does it still have the same active bacteria as the real thing? That's mainly why I eat yogurt in the first place. I'd love to be able to cut out dairy since it is my weakness :-)

mere I've always wondered the same thing about the live cultures found in regular yogurt. I have just never been motivated enough to actually research it.

The Silk Soy Yogurt does have the probiotics/active live cultures that regular dairy yogurt does.

You can also get probiotics in juice form... not sure of the brand, but it is available.

Thanks for the tip, I'll look in to it ;-)

maybe I did just get a bad brand

I think it was call O Soy! by stonyfield farm - so I thought it would be alright

I got a six-pack of strawberry and peach and the one I tried was peach

Yep - it said on there that it had live yogurt cultures

And really it wasn't the taste as much as the texture.  It's true, the texture of yogurt is a little... :/  anyway, but this was far far worse.

I bet the silk soy yogurt is better - it couldn't possibly be worse.  :)

I threw the other 5 away. That's how bad it was....

lies! that's the brand i bought, and it was absolutely delicious!

i don't know, i think the thing to remember, is that it's not an exact replica of dairy yogurt, but rather an amazing thing that may or may not resemble dairy yogurt but regardless, is still delicious in it's own right. 

Gotta be the brand you bought!  My favourite health food store stocks 2 brands of soy yogurt and one of them is HORRIBLE blech ew gross awful.  But the other, So Nice (Vancouver, Canada co.) is SOOOOO good.  I couldn't live without it.  It's got real bacterial cultures like dairy yogurt and it's so good for soothing my nausea right now!  To be honest I haven't had dairy yogurt in like 6 years but I swear it tastes just like it. 

You've tried poo?

I've been trying out that brand of soy yogurt too since they've been on sale the last two weeks. I admit, it takes some getting used to, but the strawberry one was reaaally good! And I think they all taste better if you mix in some wheat germ as well - it kind of distracts you from the texture a bit. I really want to try out Silk's yogurt but my grocery store only has the smoothies.

Hrmm... I like the Stonyfield Farms soy-yogurt.  My daughter wasn't a huge fan though... guess that's all mine then!

Every time I see soy yoghurt in the supermarket I remember this topic. EVERY TIME. "No, don't buy, it's nastier than poo!"

The Stonyfeild O'Soy yogurt is really good. Only problem is.. they put that fruit on the bottom..

That little poem was great!- I know what you mean.. don't get me started on carob or soy icecream lol

I seriously doubt it is nastier than poo. Unless you know something I don't. O_O I sure hope not.

catsy - LOL, exactly what I was thinking, hahahahaha.

Aw man,  don't hate on the soy ice cream. At least Soy Delicious etc. is amazing, i'm not sure about some other brands.

Oh I love O Soy! It's so delicious, I eat one everyday, and they're really good for making low cal fruit parfaits. i can't believe you didn't like them! Mine sometimes seperates, so if you shake it before opening, it becomes more creamier
