Ok, so far I have tried Silk yogurt and Whole Soy, both of which are very good. I decided to try O'Soy from my local grocery store for a change. It is disgusting!!! It has a horrible taste and texture and you have to mix the fruit with the yogurt in the cup. The aftertaste is nasty too. I am very tolerant of many different tastes, but I could not eat more than two bites of this yogurt.

That's funny, I actually prefer O'Soy over the other brands you've mentioned. I think it has a much better texture than Whole Soy and isn't as sickly sweet as Silk.
You should try Nancy's. As much as I hated it, you might like it. :D

I don't understand why everyone seems to think that Silk yogurt tastes SO incredibly sweet!! Yogurt IS sweet!! If you compare the grams of sugar in Silk to that of a dairy yogurt such as Yoplait original(not the light kind of course), it actually has less!!
Silk Rasberry Yogurt has 30g total carbohydrates per 6 oz container and 22g sugar, whereas Yoplait Original Fruit yogurts have 33g carbohydrates and 27g sugar per 6 oz container!
Therefore I don't understand how anyone who was looking for a replacement for dairy yogurt could complain about the sweetness!! Hmmm...I'm confused!

Wow, all those exclimation points. This must be a very emotional issue for you. ;)
When I ate dairy yogurt, I favored nautural fruit-sweetened, and homemade yogurts that tend to be more acidic than the Yoplait or Dannon stuff. Silk may have less sugar, but it lacks that acidic tartness so, to me at least, it tastes sweeter.

I really like O'Soy, but I try to avoid that much sugar.

I agree, it has just as much, perhaps less, as regular yogurt. And I would rather eat yogurt than something that's baked/chocolate/ all refined sugar.
Even my aunt tried it and she really likes a lot of natural foods with no sugar/salt, etc. and she thought it was icky too.

I love Whole Soy~even better at room temp, I take it out of the fridge for a couple of hours. I'm not risking trying Silk's "Soygurt."

I used to eat WholeSoy, but never really was a big fan of it...it seemed to be too grainy/powdery for me! I like my yogurt smoother like Silk is!
