Plain Skyr yogurt is a traditional Icelandic dairy product known for its thick, creamy texture and mild tangy flavor. Made by straining skim milk to remove water and whey, Skyr is naturally high in protein and low in fat, making it a popular choice for health-conscious individuals. It contains live cultures, or probiotics, which can promote gut health and aid digestion. Frequently compared to Greek yogurt, Skyr is slightly thicker and has a higher protein-to-calorie ratio. It is free of added sugars, though its plain taste may not appeal to everyone without natural sweeteners or toppings. Originating from Icelandic cuisine, Skyr has been enjoyed for centuries as a staple food. Its simple ingredients—skim milk and active cultures—make it a wholesome option for snacks, meals, or smoothies. However, watch for variations that might include added sugars or high-fat versions, depending on the brand.
