Get on the Road to Healthy Eating With Yoplait #LMDConnector #GMYoplait

Posted by Sheri Landry on October 4, 2012 ~

I just learned something new today. I had no idea that Yoplait was made in Canada and it has been since 1971. Yoplait is also a part of the General Mills family.

Yoplait is one of the yogurt options that I grab when I go grocery shopping because the kids yogurt options don’t contain any artificial flavours or sweeteners. As a family, we use Yoplait source as the base for our fruit smoothies because there is no sugar added and it contains 0% of fat while still packing a whole lot of taste.

The family of Yoplait products includes:

Yoplait kids with MiniGo, Yop & Tubes: Contains no gelatin, no artificial flavours (with the exception of YOP Vanilla Tropix) and no artificial sweeteners. They have a source of Calcium and Vitamin D. My daughters enjoy the MiniGo and Tubes the most.
Yoplait Source: Carry 30 different flavours and only 35 calories per serving. 0% fat and 0 sugar added.
Yoplait Yoptimal: Contains 40% more fruit than other brands and 2 probiotics (BB-12® Bifidobacterium lactis and LA-5®Lactobacillus acidophilusR)

I wrote a bit about Yogurt in my last post for Life Made Delicious, but I feel the need to repeat my tip because it really works in our house. If you find your kids have grown tired of yogurt, spread a sheet of wax paper out on a cookie sheet and put little drops of yogurt on the paper. Freeze and serve it to your kids as a ‘frozen drop’. They’ll love it.

I have a giveaway from Yoplait for you as well. The team over at General Mills is giving away a Yoplait prize pack to one lucky This Bird’s Day reader (includes 4 free Yoplait coupons, a lunch bag, a Post-it, a journal, and a pen).
