A recent study from The NPD Group[1] finds that more than half of Americans are snacking two or three times each day, and that one in every five eating occasions in the U.S. is a snack. Healthy Choice Greek Frozen Yogurt offers these consumers a great tasting and healthy option to fill one of those snacking occasions.

"We know consumers are looking for convenient snacking alternatives that don't make them choose between nutrition and taste," said Krista McDonald, Healthy Choice senior brand manager.  "Our new Greek Frozen Yogurt has the delicious, creamy taste they're seeking, and at just 100-calories in each individual cup, it's a treat that's easy to enjoy anytime."

New Healthy Choice Greek Frozen Yogurt helps consumers live healthy and feel their best without the need to diet.  Available nationwide in four delicious flavors—Strawberry, Vanilla Bean, Raspberry and Blueberry—Healthy Choice Greek Frozen Yogurt can be found in the freezer aisle, next to Healthy Choice meals.

Healthy Choice new Greek Frozen Yogurt is also filling the gap for the growing trend of Greek yogurt—which has seen one of the fastest growth spurts the food and beverage industry has seen in recent history—as it makes its move to the frozen aisle. At just 100 calories, new Healthy Choice Greek Frozen Yogurt is thick and creamy with the blend of sweet and tartness consumers expect.
