BOSTON – Dannon® and Ahold USA’s family of grocery stores are excited to announce that tiramisu is the winning flavor in the Dannon Light & Fit® Great Greek Flavor Search contest with the suggestion submitted by Boston-area preschool teacher Keri J.
It can often be difficult to choose healthy foods and stick to a weight management plan when one’s favorite tempting treats are accessible everywhere. So Ahold USA, the parent company of Stop & Shop, teamed up with Dannon to offer people the opportunity to submit their favorite flavors to become the next delicious product in Dannon’s Light & Fit Greek yogurt line.
Light & Fit Great Greek Flavor Search winner Keri J. submitted her favorite dessert to the contest, tiramisu. Keri’s winning suggestion led to today’s introduction of Dannon Light & Fit Tiramisu Flavored Greek Nonfat Yogurt, a new flavor with 12g of protein, 80 calories, 0 percent fat per 5.3 oz cup and a deliciously satisfying taste that helps shrink away those daily temptations.
“My inspiration for submitting this flavor combines my love of Greek yogurt and my favorite dessert,” said Keri J., who prefers to remain anonymous. “When I found out about Dannon’s Light & Fit Great Greek Flavor Search, I couldn’t pass on the opportunity to submit my suggestion for a tiramisu flavored Greek yogurt.”
On Monday, June 15, 2015, Dannon and Stop & Shop invite yogurt and tiramisu lovers in the Boston area to enjoy a free tasting while learning about the new flavor at the Stoneham, MA Stop & Shop.
“Dannon fans have the best taste buds and we aim to please them with healthy yogurts, like Light & Fit Greek. It’s our hope that more Americans will enjoy the many benefits of eating yogurt every day like those of us at Dannon do,” said Michael Neuwirth, Senior Director of Public Relations for The Dannon Company. “This contest discovered a flavor that we love a lot, too, so we’re really excited to be making it. It’s a delicious new flavor of Light & Fit Greek Yogurt, which is nutrient dense and can help people avoid less healthful cravings.”
The new Dannon Light & Fit Tiramisu Flavored Greek Nonfat Yogurt is available for a limited time at all Stop & Shop retailers. Additionally, the new flavor will be available for a promotional price this week.*
