Stoneyfield Yogurt Taste Test

20121115_133307Recently I received an invitation for a taste test at Stoneyfield Farms. We love Stoneyfield yogurt in our house. It’s the only yogurt my daughter will eat.

I didn’t realize Stoneyfield Farms had a Visitor’s Center about a half hour from my house where you can sample yummy yogurt and buy it at discount prices. On Tuesdays they have story time where you can hear about their early days on the farm and check out their kids stuff, eco-goodies and kitchen helpers.

I tested a few different vanilla flavors and you can certainly tell the difference. I’ve never been to a taste test before. I also tried the Strawberry Greek Yogurt. I really liked it. Greek yogurt is a bit heavier than the regular one. It has a lot of protein and it’s quite filling. The first few bites were a bit tarty but if you can get past that it’s really good. I was there for about a half hour and received a few free samples for my time and I also stocked up on some more yogurt for Buggy. My daughter eats 2-3 containers a day.

If you are a fan of Stoneyfield’s make sure you check out their website at stoneyfield.com for coupons and sign up for their rewards program. You can find the codes on one of the yogurt lids.

Are you a fan of Stoneyfield Organic Yogurt?

My Toddler Loves Her Yogurt!

IMG_8738Having a picky eater for a toddler is not easy to deal with. If you’re a mom with a picky toddler you can certainly understand. One of the things we have struggled with in our home is getting Buggy to drink milk. She absolutely refuses. Since she started preschool a few months ago she has asked for it because she sees the kids drinking it at school but she really doesn’t drink it at all.

We just stopped nursing last month so for me not drinking cow’s milk wasn’t an issue. We did try other types of milk but no dice- she didn’t like any of them but we needed to make sure she received enough calcium. She loves her cheese, although she tends to be picky about it lately and she loves her ice cream. She probably got an overdose of ice cream over the summer. Her other favorite dairy product is her yogurt. To say that she loves it is an understatement. Buggy will usually have one for breakfast every morning, I pack one in her lunch box when she goes to school twice a week (along with her snacks, that’s usually all she’ll eat) and will usually have one as a snack when she gets home from school.

On the days she doesn’t go to school her she will have two for breakfast or for lunch and maybe another one or two throughout the day. Her favorite brand is Stonyfield's Blueberry Organic Yogurt. I’ve tried giving her other brands when I’ve run out of hers (daddy eats blueberry as well and I like strawberry banana) but she will not eat it.  Of course she totally knows the difference. I buy two four packs for the week and that’s usually enough but lately I’ve been going to the store like every other day to get more. She’s totally on this massive yogurt kick so the other day while I was at the store yet again I totally stocked up.  I’m constantly looking for coupons and get really excited when they print at the register. See all that yogurt I got? I totally stocked up! That’s not including what I already had in the fridge. She loves her blueberry yogurt- loves it! 

IMG_8741Here is her new way of eating yogurt these days – instead of a spoon she uses her finger and trust me she can scoop it pretty good although I’m constantly telling her to use her spoon but what’s the fun in that-lol! Trying to get her to eat veggies is another challenge but for now as long as she continues to eat her fruit and yogurt, I’m happy. We’ll keep trying on the veggies.

Do your kids have a favorite snack they can’t get enough of? Do you limit how much of it they eat?
