Do they make an organic Greek yogurt that is not fat free?
The only organic greek yogurt I have seen is the Stonybrook Farms Oikos.
But it has 0% milk fat- and I'd prefer somethign with at least some fat for DD.
Any other brands?
I myself can't stand the taste of Greek yogurt- but DD doesn't seem to mind it and I NEED to get more protein in her since she is pretty much a vegan at this point! (olther than dairy products that is!)
I figured the Greek yogurt at least has tons of protein- but I'd like to get her some milk fat with it too- and I prefer organic when it comes to yogurt for her.
Are there any options?

I don't blame you for hating oikos. I'm greek so very used to greek yogurt....oikos tasted so bad that I looked into it and it is actually made in the US.
I would try Fage. They started selling them in the organic section of the supermarkets. It has full fat and 2% and 0%. I love them all...they taste rich and they taste healthy. Hope you have luck finding fage.
Yobaby actually tastes like greek yogurt too. Have you tried that?

We actually give DS #1 Chobani even though it's fat free...he gets fat in so many other wys and LOVES the way chobani tastes. If she's getting fat from other places I'd go with the chobani.

You can buy fat free or lowfat organic and add fat to it. This is what I do. Add 1 Tablespoon of organic heavy cream that is about 6 grams of fat. You can do more or less depending on her needs. It mixes in very well. I have yet to find full fat true organic. Fage & chobani I believe are hormone free but chobani 2% only has 3g fat per serving. Fage total has 20g. Chobani kids is about 1.5. Hth!

Yes she has had the Yobaby- and does like it- but I just wanted her to get a bit more protein- and I know the greek yogurt has a lot more protein.
I will check out the Fage. thanks!

Re: Do they make an organic Greek yogurt that is not fat free?
The fat content isn't the real issue; you need to look at the ingredients. Whole milk has DHA and other brain-building nutrients. I'm not sure what the full-fat Fage is made with - it might be lowfat milk and cream. Lowfat milk is lacking these nutrients, and is harder for baby to digest.
Trader Joes has a plain whole milk yogurt that has a good amount of protein. It needs to be doctored though. Add some pureed or diced fruit to sweeten it.

i get it from trader joes- but it's a pretty big tub so sometimes it will go bad before DS eats it all.

This! I think it's low fat not full fat though. I've seen it at BJ's and Waldbaums. I'm thinking of trying this brand as DS turned 2.
