Do you Easiyo?

It didn't seem to work out cheaper for us. It usually went off before we used it all so the packs work out better for us. Plus I just don't like the taste lol

I had one and used it regularly until I got pregnant.
I would only ever make the greek style one, and I used it in so many different things.
I used it in curries, and in place of sour cream in mexican.
I would have it on my breakfast, and if I wanted it as a sweet yoghurt I'd stir a spoonful of jam thru it.

I was told I couldn't have it during pregnancy cause it sits around in the fridge and there is a risk of listeria from that. I'll go back to making it after the baby is born.

We use one & mostly do the Greek one & it does not last long. Also have done the drinks & they are yum. I usually buy them when on specially so it may work out a bit cheaper sometimes.

i use it every week.

This week it cost me $3 for a sachet. I dont buy the fruit stuff to put in. Its normally just for DD.

I prefer it because DD wont always eat a tub, so with easiyo i can just give her the right amount without wastage. We will use one in about 5-7 days but DP will also have some.

I guess for us its cheaper because there is no, or not much wastage, unlike the 6 packs.

I don't think it works out much cheaper at all.

But apparently you can use the culture from one mix, and use that to keep making more. That way it is alot cheaper, but I wouldn't have a clue how to do it.

I like that I can have in the cupboard and make up when we are about to run out...mainly coz we live in hicksville and the yoghurt here is expensive so usually only buy when we go to town...and then run out.

I do that Kellie. IMO if all you want is plain yogurt, buying the mix isn't necessary, its a bit of a money spinner really. Yogurt is simply cultured milk so all you need is milk + culture. For the culture part just buy a container of natural yogurt. Add about 1/2 cup to the easiyo container, fill the rest with milk, mix and incubate in boiling water just like you would with an easiyo mix. Should thicken overnight. If you want a thicker yogurt, start with more yogurt and less milk.
After a few cycles I find is loses its 'potency' and have to start again from supermarket yogurt but still works out LOTS cheaper

It doesn't work our cheaper when the yogurt doesn't work! I dunno how I'm getting it so wrong. We just buy the 1 litre tubs now, easy for me to pour over cereal or add a bit to the morning milkshake, and easy to pop into tupperware for DD @ kindy.

I don't think it works out cheaper, but it tastes great and is much better for you.

I've heard you can use a small amount of the sachet and add milk powder + water. Sit it in boiling water for the usual time. Haven't tried it that way yet.

I like it with frozen berries.

That is interesting NutsNat, I might have to try that with the next batch of yoghurt.
