It offers the benefits of acidophilus without the calories, cholesterol, sugars, or lactose found in yogurt.

Probiotics: Beneficial or a Waste of Money?
Probiotics certainly were a health buzzword of 2008. These healthy bacteria can now be found in all sorts of products from dairy products to energy bars, from cereals to dietary supplements.

What's the Deal With: Probiotic Hummus
Predicted to be a food trend of 2009, Probiotics, those beneficial bacteria, are being added to all sorts of foods, from dairy products to energy bars.

Yogurt is naturally chock full of the bacteria, but I just found a probiotic hummus made by Wildwood Organics.

Food Review: Chobani Greek Yogurt
I'm a big fan of yogurt for breakfast or for a pre-workout snack, but I'm an even bigger fan of Greek yogurt.
