Taste-Off: Nonfat Greek yogurt ranked from velvety and tangy to runny and sour (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If creamy salads, rich soups and dollops of richness on top of everything from baked potatoes to tacos are your jam, but excess fat is an issue, no worries. Just pick up a carton of plain nonfat Greek yogurt. Unlike traditional yogurt, Greek yogurt is made by straining out much of the sour-tasting whey. The result is a protein-rich cream that’s so rich and thick that it makes a terrific swap for cream, mayonnaise or full-fat sour cream. While it’s possible to turn any vat of nonfat yogurt into G
Taste-Off: Which of 10 pickle-flavored chips you won’t sour on (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Pickle-flavored chips? As odd as they sound, the combination of potato chips and dill pickles isn’t so far-fetched. Chips are a natural side for a sandwich, and more than a few sandwiches include a slice of dill pickle. Not convinced? Then get brave and grab one of the many brands of dill pickle-flavored potato chips on store shelves. The flavor, introduced in Canada decades ago, combines vinegar, garlic, dill and toasty potato in a single salty, tangy bite. Admittedly, dill pickle-flavored pota

Read excerpt
When it comes to making lunches, the key is to opt for something fast, simple, familiar, nutritious and likely to please, aka sliced turkey. Whether it’s rolled up with cheese, layered between bread or scattered on top of a salad, sliced deli turkey is a win for the whole family. Sliced turkey comes in a handful of styles, including smoked, honey-roasted, pepper-crusted and herb-roasted, as well as low-sodium, organic and 95% fat-free. For this feature, we stuck with the most popular version, ov
Taste-Off: Ranking 12 pineapple juice brands from refreshing to overcooked (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Of all the tropical juices — mango, papaya, guava and passion fruit — the most versatile and widely available is pineapple. Sweet, tart, citrusy and golden yellow, pineapple juice is delicious straight up and is a go-to for cocktails and mocktails. With so many choices on store shelves — including some priced at more than $10 a quart — we decided to round up bottles, cans and jars for a taste test. We found a few options in the refrigerated section, but most were located on the shelf-stable juic
