I love imitation Greek yogurt. We have a grocery chain that sells food really cheap. While Safeway will charge a dollar or more per serving, I can get it for 50 cents. I always stock up when I go there. In fact, it's the main reason I go there. That's whey I feel horrible. To think that I am responsible for so much waste bothers me.
