[QUESTION] How do I adjust the texture of yogurt? - eviltoast

For dietary purposes, I’ve been told to start including probiotic rich food in my diet and I figure since people in my house already like yogurt that’s the best way to go. But I absolutely hate the texture of yogurt. How can I change it and still enjoy the health benefits? I don’t love smoothies, but I’ll make one occasionally with yogurt. But I’d prefer to have some variety with this. Adding granola is alright, and definitely helps but even still I find myself just grossed out after two spoonfuls. Is there anything I can do? Is freezing it and turning it into something like frozen yogurt going to kill the cultures? It’s sad, because this is the only food I absolutely cannot seem to find a way to enjoy!

    If you are just looking for probiotics, maybe try other fermented foods instead like kimchi

    You can also thin yogurt out with cool water until it’s the consistency of milk. You’ll dilute the flavor a lot but maybe the texture will be more palatable…

      I absolutely love kimchi, but the only brand in the stores near me always feels kind of mushy and wimpy. But I get a jar of the Seoul (I think?) brand whenever I go into the city and can stop by Asian grocery stores.
