Yogurt

Yogurt is a popular dairy product made by fermenting milk with a yogurt culture. It typically has a creamy texture and a slightly sour taste due to the presence of lactic acid produced by the fermentation of lactose. Often consumed plain, yogurt can also be blended with fruit, sugar, honey, or other flavorings for added taste. It is highly nutritious, providing significant amounts of protein, calcium, and beneficial probiotics that can improve digestive health. It can be enjoyed at any time of day, either on its own or as an ingredient in recipes for smoothies, sauces, dressings, and desserts. Yogurt also comes in different types such as Greek yogurt, which is known for its thick and creamy consistency, and probiotic-rich variants like kefir. It is a versatile food staple that can cater to various dietary preferences since there are also dairy-free alternatives made from almond, coconut or soy milk.
