Hi all, yes I know it's not very peaty due to it's bacterial profile but I have a question about Greek Yoghurt...
I've always been told you're not eating real properly prepared Greek Yoghurt unless the protein content is pushing 9 - 10g per 100g of Yoghurt. Up until now I had never actually come across this however my local Tesco stocks this:
Tesco Finest 0% Fat Greek Yoghurt 500G - Groceries - Tesco Groceries
This is the only Yoghurt product I have ever found where the protein levels are within that range. I do however have a few questions...looking at the non-strained version here:

Protein comes in at about 6.5g? So working under the assumption that they have added protein into the skimmed version in order to bulk it up does anyone have any ideas what this protein might be?
Also I remember reading a post somewhere from Haidut explaining how the bacterial issue in proper Greek Yoghurt isn't so bad due to most of the lactobacillus being drained out, can anyone confirm this? If it is indeed the case this makes me a very happy man considering how favourable Yoghurt is food wise, an easy extra 300odd kcal for me if all is good!
Thanks!
