I was explaining this to my daughter in quite simplified terms the other day- we evolved to taste sugar and enjoy it because finding a sweet edible plant meant we had a source of energy to help us hunt that day. Pretty useful if you're a hunter-gatherer.

So we seek out sugar. Now we can get it whenever we want it, in much more massive quantities than we are supposed to be processing. Most of us are addicted. I'm not an exception.

Fage is definitely my favorite yogurt. I'm always like "how the fuck is this so God damn good? It has virtually no sugar or anything added"

Also in case you didnt know, for many reduced fat items they just end up adding more sugar.

Fage 2% with some low sodium mixed nuts and low sugar dried cranberries is one of my favorite breakfasts these days. No joke.

I love fage, mixed with some roughly chopped cherries is so good. I've switched to making my own yogurt recently but the original starter I used was fage and it hasn't let me down

It's good because fat tastes good too.
