Sadly, the entire original Chobani Non-Dairy line, made with coconut, has been discontinued. But, they’ve moved forward with their dairy-free oat-based line. You can still get Chobani Oat Yogurt Cups and Chobani Oat Yogurt Blends.
Despite releasing a new non-dairy line, Chobani is staunchly against using dairy terms like “milk” and “yogurt” on dairy-free products. This isn’t a debate that I would typically weigh in on, but Chobani has failed to address one major thing. If you don’t call it yogurt, what do you call it? They’ve simply slapped the name “Chobani Non-Dairy” on all of their dairy-free products, no matter what they are. I think we either need some new terms, or people will simply call Chobani Non-Dairy Cups, “yogurt,” whether they like it or not.
The Founder and CEO of Chobani, Hamdi Ulukaya, says the Non-Dairy Chobani “isn’t a replacement to dairy, but it’s a game-changer for plant-based products.” He then proceeds to call them “coconut purees.” Sorry Hamdi, but I don’t think “purees” is going to catch on. However, I do think many people will be very happy to purchase your non-dairy “not yogurt” in the yogurt aisle, and enjoy it just like they would yogurt (with granola for breakfast), for the same reason as yogurt (probiotics).

Chobani Non-Dairy Cups are Coconut-Based “Yogurt,” We Think
Like yogurt, Chobani Non-Dairy Cups are cultured, and they contain 6 types of live and active probiotics. They’re also creamy, spoonable, and perfect for enjoying with fresh fruit or other toppings. And they’re carrageenan-free, lower in sugars than most dairy versions, and sweetened solely with cane sugar. But they aren’t fortified, so they are lighter in protein and calcium than traditional dairy yogurt.
We’ve yet to sample each flavor, but leave your own rating and review to tell us what you think of them!

Nondairy yogurt without any sugar
I wish you’d have nondairy yogurt without any sugar. I like plain yogurt but can’t have dairy. Please make non-dairy for my allergy, but without any sugar added, just like regular yogurt. Thank you.
Add protein plz
Hi loved the flavor and the dairy free option but add some protein so important
You are truly appreciated for such a wonderful product.
I have multiple kinds of allergies, including food allergies; however I want to share with you that in all my years of searching for a snack and/or dessert or breakfast food similar to this aka yogurt, I am so happy and at peace to have finally found perfection and satisfaction in you product. You made these nondairy cups JUST FOR ME. I truly am ELATED. THANK YOU SO MUCH. They are not always easy to find.. so please include as many stores as possible and keep up the good work. You’re are appreciated.
Run Away
I have tried both the strawberry and peach flavors. Both times I received an upset stomach, light headed dizziness, and diarrhea. What an awful product!
Delicious
I love the peach one. It is amazing. It reminds me of an unfrozen gelato. So if you’re wanting a dessert type yogurt or cup, this is it.
Perfect
I absolutely love this line. I wish I can find it in stores close to me. I just moved and am having a hard time. It’s a great snack!
Wait, zero calcium in my "yogurt"?
I loved it! But I really thought I had purchased and was eating yogurt, with a coconut base flavor, and strawberry added. I liked it so much I decided to read the ingredients an nutritional value as I was considering making it a lunch staple! Then I saw no calcium…?? it was only then that I realized its NOT yogurt!! but i loved it, and would buy it again…though probably not at $1.99
Really glad I had a coupon for a free one...
..because the product was just slightly better than terrible. The consistancy was lumpy. The fruit, what there was of it, would not stir in smoothly no matter how much you stirred. And there was very little fruit, no nice, smooth peachy flavor. What fruit there was had a strange taste, sort of artificial. Not yummy enough to justify the high fat, sugar and empty calories Totally void of nutritional value.
no nutritional value
Why bother to have this … just eat fruit smoothie.. too many sugars with no nutritional value. If you are going to give me that much sugar and charge that amount per serving you need protein, fiber or something nutritional extra. The taste was good, not exceptional. I would rather have my calories that are that high, in something that will give me protein. It is carbs and sugar.
Excellent discovery
As a Vegan I am always on the looks out for new products to try. I found Chobani in my local Walmart and bought the Vanilla and Strawberry, as I like to combine two flavors together. Chobani did not disappoint. Both had a consistency that was not too watery or thick. The flavour was strong but not overpowering and no after taste. I am very happy with the product and will be purchasing again. 🙂
