Danio Super Tasty Yoghurts : Review

A while ago I was sent a supermarket gift card in order to try the new yoghurts from Danone, called Danio. 

I realised I actually didn't take any photos of the pots because they disappeared so quickly - that gives you a good idea of how tasty they are!

Here is a quick description of what is so special about Danio yoghurts:

They were a little tough to get hold of - so far I've only seen them in larger supermarkets, but hopefully as they become more popular Danio will be available in other stores. 

I managed to get all of the flavours to try which was great! They come in strawberry, passionfruit and cherry which are 0% Fat, and raspberry, blueberry, and peach which are Low Fat. The yoghurts are also described as "High Protein" with ~12g in each pot. 

My favourites were the berry flavours, especially blueberry and cherry. I mostly ate them for breakfast- I've been trying to wean myself off porridge, and yogurt with cereal and fresh fruit was a really tasty alternative!

The yoghurts really were very thick and creamy with a consistency not dissimilar to cheesecake! Dessert for breakfast anyone?! 

On another day I had the passionfruit one on it's own - a 160g pot is between 125-160kcal so they make a great snack. 

The pots currently retail for 85p but they're on offer at Tesco at 3 for £2.00 or Buy One Get One Free at Sainsburys, so definitely worth looking out for deals so you can try them too! 🙂

The only thing I would mention is that with 18g of sugar in some pots, they're perhaps not something I would eat every day. Some of that will be fruit sugar of course, but there is also some added sugar as listed in the ingredients.
