The Australian Product Review/Discussion Thread

Chobani Yogurt Update:

Following an e-mail I sent in, I had a reply from the Australian National Account manager that the following will be happening:

"Good afternoon Dan,

Thank you for your email, please see below response to your queries;

· Outside of Cole and WW’s Chobani is available nationally through the independent channel – Ritchies, IGA, Supa IGA and many other independent groups.

· With regard to purchasing in bulk we are currently in on-going discussion with Costco in relation to ranging the product.

· We are currently looking at larger tub sizes for release later this year.


We will also be releasing seven new Chobani 170gm flavours next month "



For your pleasure, brahs and brahettes

If they start selling at Costco, that'd be amazing. Buying chobani by the Bucket load cheaply is what one would call awesome.
Other foods you can buy cheaply there include vacuum sealed frozen salmon fillets, canned foods, peanut butter, vegemite and condiments.
Costcos usually better for overall living products like shampoo, multivitamins, washing powder, toilet paper. If you've got the storage space you can save a heap of money.

A lot of products are more expensive too

IMO as an individual (not buying for a family) the membership fee and prices + travel to go there aren't worth it

Yeah, I can understand where you're coming from, it's not for everyone. It works well while I'm still a full-time student at home, parents tend to just stock up on the essentials.

Does anyone like the "Chang's Egg Noodles made from egg whites (protein added)"?

[AusTrancer]

Does anyone like the "Chang's Egg Noodles made from egg whites (protein added)"?

These were a staple of mine for ages until I started getting sick of them. Decent macros but I mainly liked them for the convenience of the 3 individual servings, don't have to weigh/guess anything.

On a side note, if you ever want something with heaps of volume, cook these noodles and then just leave them in the water for like half an hour (after turning off stove), they just suck it up and turn twice the size.

Dairy farmers low fat. Best consistency and macros for me!

^^ Great for people like me on lower fat macros but still enjoy oats.

[Jemima92]

What brand of Cottage Cheese do you guys use?

Weight watchers has a bit more protein/100g than bulla (2.5g I think). And I think ww's cc tastes a lot better. Bulla is cheaper though

[jzpowahz]

Also best legit non-homemade base, IMO is this.

Macros per base (300g)

Legit macros too.
