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!]

You can find it at whole foods in little ceramic returnable containers. This yogurt is so totally awesome. My favorite is the honey flavor. Of course if you're trying to avoid ALL sweeteners (not just sugar) that doesn't help you.

One note of caution: I have had some of the fruit flavored ones go bad on me before the expiration date. I've never had this problem with the honey or plain ones though (I've had them still be fine even after the expiration date), so I think it has something to do with how they cook their jams - I even wrote to them to tell them about the problem and they confirmed that they make the jam at low temperature to preserve the fresh fruity flavor. They told me they would look into it. I think they've gotten somewhat better since then but I still never buy a fruit one unless the expiration is at least a week and a half away and I plan to eat it immediately.
