Rachels Yoghurt De-listed

lib21by

Lactalis-owned UK dairy business Rachel's Organic has confirmed supermarket Tesco has delisted its yoghurt range. A spokesperson for Rachel's said the decision has led the company to start talks with staff over potential redundancies and reduced hours at its Aberystwyth site in Wales

I buy Rachel's Organic Greek Style Vanilla Yogurt 450G, but now "Sorry, this product has been removed from our range."
The reason that I buy it is because it is LOW PROTEIN @ 2.8g per 100g, as I am a kidney patient. Does anyone have any suggestions what or where to buy as an alternative, please

Mnoee

I had a quick flick through Tescos offerings online - their own brand Greek style coconut yogurt is only slightly higher at 3.2g per 100g, onken is 3.3, clandeboye vanilla Greek yogurt is 3.2g. Glenisk organic Greek style yogurt is the lowest I spotted at 2.8g, also the priciest!

Hopefully one or more is suitable to you and available in your area - I know looking online isn't a guarantee it'll be in stock for you. Not a yoghurt fan myself, just trying to be helpful!

Sainsbury's sells Rachel's Greek style yogurts - but not vanilla.  With the lowest protein content being 3%.
Waitrose also stock it - wider choice I think but still not vanilla.

Thanks - I'm not fussed about the flavour. Some people don't eat certain foods because
1. for medical reasons
or 2. for ethical reasons
or 3. " I don't like ...... "

Glenisk is sold in Ireland only
And re recommendation re coconut flavour- Coconut is high in potassium, and so is unsuitable for kidney patients.
If anyone out there is in the UK yoghurt industry, can they please publish lists showing in order content of protein, fat and potassium, and where to buy. I want high fat and low protein and low ( or nil ) potassium.
Or if they cannot get together, can each supermarket publish their own list separately.

@lib21by : Have you tried asking on Kidney Care UK Facebook page? Renal folk on there have a wealth of information and experience.

Have you thought about making your own?  You may have more control over the protein content
