It irritates me that it's so much harder to find single-serving packages of full-fat yogurt in American supermarkets than in many other countries.

the lack irritates me too

It seems to be regional and/or depend on the store. My handiest local supermarket just doesn't have them (only quarts, or single servings of low-fat). When I needed a bit more yogurt while visiting Adrian, there was a reasonable choice of single-serving full-fat yogurt at the Whole Foods on Mass Ave. in Somerville.

(I've not looked for the single servings in Montreal, because I'm in the habit of buying larger containers of plain full-fat yogurt, and adding jam or fruit at home.)

Yes, Buck-a-Grape seems to be a reliable option for overpriced specialty yogurt. I just find it annoying that in normal supermarkets with normal prices full-fat yogurt--which used to be the only kind, really--is now basically unfindable in single-serving packages.

I definitely agree it's both regional and dependent on store chain, but most chains in the States are pretty bad about this. In Quebec in general and Montreal in particular, I've found it pretty easily.

I should bear that in mind, thanks. I tend to ask rysmiel to just pick up a large container of plain full-fat yogurt when I'm going to be visiting them in Montreal, but if the individual servings are easily available maybe I'll ask them to keep an eye out for those instead.

Sure!

I'll check again next time I'm in Montreal, but that was what I remember from previous visits. I didn't buy any the last time I was in town but that's mostly because I was just transferring through.
