"However, some yogurt is heat-treated to extend shelf life or reduce tartness, a process that kills the cultures (the Food and Drug Administration requires that makers indicate on the label if yogurt is heat-treated)."
I guess that they don't die quickly, they are killed. What brand do you buy?

Oh, and your line about getting energy from vitamin B reminded me of the quote from Blazing Saddles: "Well, it all depends on how much vitamin E I can get my hands on.." ha! - Joe— September 3, 2009 8:38 a.m.

Like you, I'm extremely skeptical of any companies description of the benefits derived from their product. The longer the list in ingredients, the less likely that it will end up in my mouth... Not that I won't eat horrible things - Kraft Macaroni and Cheese for example. Nothing edible is supposed to be that color - but I've loved it since I was a kid. A while back I read a story, I think it was on the NPR site, about the active cultures in yogurt that were supposed to help digestion. Turns out that most of the "Live Cultures" that they were adding to the ones that occur naturally in yogurt die quickly and have no health benefit. Nice. Plus Yoplat is packed with HFCS... "Eat right, exercise regularly, die anyway" - probably from cancer caused buy food additives! I wonder if there are any anti-oxidants in Jack Daniels. - Joe— September 3, 2009 8:34 a.m.

Yeah, but even if your s*** was good, I'd never read it. I know that I'm not the only one that thinks a thread hijack is in really poor taste. But whatever. - Joe— September 3, 2009 6:30 a.m.
