Yogurt

[cjsmith]

What's your favorite no-sugar-added active culture yogurt?

Dannon Light & Fit has a bitter taste to it, although that might be just the one flavor I've tried so far. (I also seem to taste bitterness unusually strongly. I can't put broccoli stems in my mouth, and there's no way I'll ever like coffee.) But just about everything else in my local supermarket has so much sugar in it that I might as well eat a candy bar.

Recommendations?

[edit: Wow, you guys are great! I've got a big pile of good ideas already!]

Frozen fruit works fine -- it's how I usually do it -- but you get a coating of frozen yogurt around the berries which then very slowly thaw. I find this perfectly okay, but YMMV.

Alternately, I suppose you could microwave-thaw the frozen fruit. And kent4str's suggestion of using an all-fruit spread sounds reasonable; I'm guessing that's essentially what a no-sugar-added yogurt cup would have.

I'm also fond of using orange marmalade in yogurt, which has the advantage that while it is added sugar, it doesn't take very much of it to add a nice strong flavor. (The "King Kelly" brand is good for not being bitter, incidentally; a lot of marmalades have a bit of a bitter taste to the bits of peel that shows up strongly when the sugar is diluted away like this.)

Hey, this would be a great way to get rid of jelly! I don't eat jelly, so if for any reason some of it shows up in the house, it stays until it grows a new civilization. A little bit at a time might be fine.
