Not realizing I was
looking for a small container (75 grams) that says "TO GO" on it,
which I did not find on the store shelf, I accidentally bought the regular size
container (140 grams). Seeing as the yogurt in both the full and mini size
containers is the same and it's new to me, I figured I may as well post my
review of this yogurt. Those of you, like me, who have yet to taste any of Beit
Yitzchak's sheep's milk products, might enjoy reading what I have to say. Those
of you who know and like this yogurt already will now know that it's also
available in a smaller container.
The new size is possibly a more appropriate kid's
size portion, or as Beit Yitzchak dairy intended, more covenant to take to work
or on a picnic outing, hence the name "TO GO".
At first I thought
it tasted somewhat like a goat's milk yogurt I often buy, but as I eat the
yogurt it seemed much heavier and more sour than the goat's milk yogurt I like.
I read on Wikipedia that sheep's milk is richer
in fat, milk solids, and minerals than
cow's milk. Therefore, as opposed to goat's milk, it's not an alternative for
people with (severe) lactose
intolerance,
because it contains even more lactose than cow's milk. I found that interesting
but it did clarify why this 5% fat sheep's milk yogurt seemed so thick and
heavy to me.
The one benefit I
found in this Beit Yitzchak Sheep's Milk Yogurt being so rich and creamy was
that even after a small amount I felt full. That could be why they decided to
add a smaller container option too. You don’t need as much to feel satisfied.
I didn’t really
like how "sour" this Beit Yitzchak sheep's milk yogurt was so, in the
spirit of Rosh Hashanah; I added a spoonful of St. Dalfour's Raspberry & Pomegranate Jam. The tartness and sweetness of the
fruit spread worked perfectly with the more sour yogurt and I really enjoyed
the rest of the container.
This Beit Yitzchak's
sheep's milk yogurt
has no added sugar, no preservatives and is gluten free.
Bottom Line: I don’t
think I will buy Beit
Yitzchak's sheep's milk yogurt again because I
found it a bit too rich and heavy for me, but if I do I would rather the new
smaller "TO GO" container and I will surly add either fresh fruit,
fruit spread or possibly honey to make it an enjoyable mid-day snack.
