Sheila,

I haven't made yogurt out of the Carb Countdown, but unless the labels are
lying, it probably won't work.

The reason is that yogurt is the product of the fermentation by
lactobacillus of sugar. No sugar, no fermentation. They've taken most of the
sugar out of the Carb Countdown and replaced it with artificial sweetener.
The lactobacillus will find nothing to ferment.

But the good news is that when you buy plain full fat yogurt, it turns out
there are fewer actual grams of carbs in it than the label shows because the
label does not account for the fermented sugars which are now lactic acid
rather than milk sugar.

I have meter tested 8 ounces of full fat plain yogurt a couple times and it
does seem to only have far fewer grams of cars per cup than the stated label
amount. I can't remember what the actual amount is (I read it somewhere a
while back, but it was quite reasonable, something like 5 grams per 8
ounces.)  Throw in some DaVinci no sugar syrup, a couple almonds, some
coconut and you have a delightful low carb treat.
