What You Should Know

Fage Total 2% Greek Lowfat Strained Yogurt with Cherry is a single-serve, 5.3 oz refrigerated cup you’d find in the dairy/produce chill case alongside other Greek yogurts, yogurt tubes, and fruit-on-the-bottom varieties — often shelved near granola, kefir, and cottage cheese. It reads like a premium, heritage brand offering: FAGE’s Greek roots and protein-forward positioning appeal to health-conscious adults and millennial shoppers who want something “real” but convenient. The label leans on a clean-food halo — “Total,” “Live Active Cultures,” and Grade A pasteurized milk — plus a lowfat 2% claim; there’s no kid-focused art or organic badge, and the cherry side-swipe hints at indulgence without calling itself dessert. In plain processing terms, this is a commercially made strained yogurt with a fruit preparation that includes added cane sugar and corn starch for texture and shelf stability. Sensory-wise the yogurt is thick and creamy from straining, with a dense spoonable body; the cherry fruit layer delivers sweet-tart bursts and occasional cherry pieces suspended in a glossy syrup. Packaging is a small plastic cup with a peel-back foil lid — designed for grab-and-go breakfasts, desk snacks, or portion-controlled desserts. Rituals include swirling the fruit into the yogurt, topping with granola or nuts, or eating straight from the cup after a workout. In American grocery culture it sits at the intersection of everyday wholesome breakfast habits and convenient, slightly indulgent snack choices: familiar, reliably branded, and marketed to shoppers who want cultured dairy with a flavored finish.

Common Questions about Fage Total 2% Yogurt Greek Lowfat Strained, Cherry

Well, 'healthy' can be a bit subjective! This yogurt is a great source of protein with 12 grams per serving, making it a solid choice for a snack or breakfast. It's got some added sugar from the cherry fruit preparation, so if you're looking to limit sugar, keep that in mind. But overall, it's a tasty, creamy option if you enjoy yogurt!
