Greek Yogurt

There was a recording issues this week so we apologize for the static in Nick's mic.  The problem gets better after the first 5 minutes but is still sometimes noticeable.  The product we will be taste testing is (nonfat) Greek yogurt, with the contenders being Chobani, Fage, and Oikos.  After a while of eating it straight to get a baseline, we throw in a little honey for a more realistic eating experience.  Please like and subscribe, and if you have any suggestions tweet us at @tastetestdummies or email at nickandjohnpodcast@gmail.com.
