The new Vegan Delight line from Maison Riviera breaks a century-long tradition of purely dairy production by this French-Canadian company. And it is no small endeavor. They’ve launched several flavors and three package sizes of their coconut milk yogurt, and have quickly gained distribution in major U.S. and Canadian retailers like Costco.
Maison Riviera Coconut Milk Yogurt is Six Flavors of Vegan Delight
Each variety of coconut milk yogurt from Maison Riviera contains 1 billion probiotic bacteria per serving. They offer the plain and vanilla in economic 650-gram tubs, but the fruit varieties are sold in 500-gram tubs and single-serve packs. In the U.S., they have launched with just single-serves.

Disgusting
I have never written a review on food before, but the lemon flavour is probably one of the most disgusting things I have ever consumed. I can’t even describe the taste other than to say it should have a warning “not for human consumption”. I came here to warn anyone wanting to try this. I’ve given it 1 star because the best thing about this yogurt is the glass jar it came in.
Taste so bad
I can’t even describe the taste. I don’t understand how anyone can like it. I have been thinking maybe vegans like it because they don’t have any tasty alternatives. I have bought it couple times. Every time I bought it, I had a bit to think that I might get used to the taste. No, there is one I have right now, in my fridge, I am sad to throw it away but, the whole thing is going to garbage. No way I will buy one more time. How do you guys like that taste?
Great coconut flavour!
Thought I’d give the Coconut Mlik Vegan Delight a try. I love it it does taste like coconut!
For a evening snack, I add shredded coconut, walnuts and thawd frozen fruit. I was using regular greek yogurt but i don’t really like the sourness of that, so this is great no sour flavour. 0 sugar is a plus..I am not vegan but trying to cut back on sugar.
Confused
I had the plain oat one… not sure if it’s supposed to taste sour but it’s not past due date so I’m a little confused on that
Great new yogurt to try!
Loved the flavour and the texture and the health/environmental benefits. I bought the mango passion fruit flavour and will definitely be a regular customer!
By far the worst tasting yogurt!
I thought I’ll give this a try and bought the “Pineapple Coconut” yogurt. The only way I can describe the taste is that it tasted like a combination of toothpaste/buttermilk with some artificial sweetener sprinkled in. Awful.
Coconut Milk Vegan
This is a lovely texture and taste.
I stopped buying it because there is a natural flavour added. Not sure what this is. I have read that the vanilla one could be an extract from beavers and from a nasty part of their body. I am going to ask the company what their natural flavour is.
DISGUSTING FLAVOUR
I haven’t had dairy products in years, and I thought-what the heck-I’ll give it a try. Might be a nice change for breakfast instead of oatmeal and fruit every morning. I had plenty of fresh berries in it, and my first mouthful – I literally gagged. It tastes like CHEAP MARGARINE. And since I grew up on that stuff, I know what I’m talking about-it’s a taste you never forget. then I reminded myself that you don’t really need to eat fake substitutes if you’ve gone vegan. It’s just gross-and reasonably high in fat. I stopped buying pretend food years ago, and I will continue to do so. And anytime one sees a listing of ‘natural flavour’ it becomes suspect.
Yummy!!!
It’s a little pricey but I really like it.
Great
Love this product, it’s my go to treat, dairy free and still tastes great
