Overall ImpressionSilk Almond Yogurt Alternative is a non-dairy yogurt product that appears to be the perfect alternative to dairy yogurt.  It has a very creamy finish and a very delicious flavor.  Unfortunately, it is not what it appears to be.  Silk Almond Yogurt Alternative is the kind of product that I would consider deceptive and misleading.  As a consumer of yogurt for many years, I have somehow developed a somewhat unfortunate dislike for yogurt of all kinds.  I now regard yogurt to be an unnecessary food product.   Silk Almond Yogurt Alternative easily fits into this category.  This product is unnecessary to the highest degree!  This product is not a yogurt alternative at all.  In spite of its somehow glorious creaminess and great flavor, it doesn't compare to other vegan yogurt products in terms of nutrition.  Loaded with 14g of sugar, Silk Almond Yogurt Alternative is definitely more of a sweet dessert than a healthy snack.  It should not be labeled as a yogurt alternative --- it should be marketed as a fruit pudding or sweet treat.  I have tried this product many years ago and it more or less remains unchanged in terms of sugar content.  I was dissatisfied before and I'm still dissatisfied today.  There's nothing healthy about Silk Almond Yogurt Alternative!  It is not a yogurt alternative!  Silk Almond Yogurt Alternative is an intolerable disaster of significant proportion!  And for that reason, Silk Almond Yogurt Alternative deserves a rating of ZERO.  0

Overall ImpressionLavva Pili Nut Yogurt is a non-dairy yogurt alternative that I regard as a weak interpretation of dairy yogurt.  The texture is very runny and the taste is very acidic.  This product is also very expensive.  Through the many years of yogurt consumption, I have concluded that all dairy and non-dairy yogurt products are nonessential food products!  They're small products that are not economically sustainable and above all, wasteful. This is the situation with Lavva Pili Nut Yogurt.  This product has no redeeming qualities about it that would have reversed my opinion about yogurt.  I was disappointed because of the hyped up publicity with the use of pili nuts and of having no added sugar.  All aspects of this product from texture, taste and price need improvement.  The only good word I can think of to write about Lavva Pili Nut Yogurt is GOODBYE!  0

PriceSiggi's Plant-Based Coconut Blend Yogurt costs less than RM22.00.  0
 
Overall ImpressionSiggi's Plant-Based Coconut Blend Yogurt is the kind of non-dairy yogurt alternative that I consider as a very poor version.  The yogurt is very runny in texture and very acidic in taste.  Furthermore, this product is way too expensive.  Through the many years of yogurt consumption, I find all yogurt products, dairy and non-dairy, to be unappealing, unnecessary food!  They're small products that are wasteful and not economically sustainable. This is the case with Siggi's Plant-Based Coconut Blend Yogurt.  It is not appealing to me in taste and price.  If I want a healthy snack, I can make a more nutritious, wholesome and creamy snack myself like a rich smoothie without the runniness and less of the acidity.  This product is a waste of everything!  I have absolutely nothing complimentary to write about Siggi's Plant-Based Coconut Blend Yogurt.  0
