What You Should Know

You’d find this 365 by Whole Foods plain kefir in the refrigerated dairy or cultured-foods section, often grabbed for morning smoothies, spooned over fruit, or used in baking. It gives a wholesome, tangy, probiotic-forward vibe — health-conscious and slightly comforting in a homemade-culture sort of way. The short ingredient list (pasteurized milks, lactase enzyme, and live cultures) and lack of additives point to a minimally processed fermented texture rather than an ultra-processed formulation.
