[...] The subject of many emails from health and calorie-counting guru Hungry Girl, Greek yogurt, along with almonds, avocado and hummus, seems to be joining the ranks of those wow-I-can-look-cosmopolitan-and-stay-healthy foods so popular with mid-to-upper class women suburbanites these days. While demographically these women may seem classy, you have to wonder how many of them still lick their yogurt lids. [...]

Just a little information for all those who like to lick the lid. (I used to be one of them)
By law the manufacturers cannot put any preservatives in the yogurt, however the law does not restrict them from applying a layer preservative on to the inside of the lid which in turn helps keep the yogurt longer on the shelves.
When you lick that yummy part of the yogurt, you also lick quite a bit of harmful preservatives.
Simply peel off the lid and toss it!

I personally think licking the lid is disgusting, there is just something really unappealing about it, to me the ‘skin’ of yoghurt that forms is horrible and just looks like the yoghurt has gone off.
I also cannot stand when people eat the yoghurt bits that have stuck to the rim of the yoghurt, you know what I mean, its the same stuff that’s on the lid.

Anyway my point shared I HATE with a passion that part of the yoghurt and anyone that chooses to partake in eating it!

The real question is:

Do you lick your lid in public?

This whole thing is gross.

How much does a freaking yogurt cost that you need to “get your moneys” worth by licking the lid? Consider it a sunk cost and buy a new one.

please, the “I paid for it” rationale is a joke, considering how much perfectly usable waste most people produce.

and please don’t tell me how good you are at using every part of the buffalo — so to speak.
