I live in a country where yoghurt is as common a staple as sugar, salt or flour--it is 'the' standard dessert here. From the time my kids were babies, I was told by the pediatrican that yougurt was important in helping them ward off all kinds of infections. A typical 'go�ter' (snack) for a toddler consists of yoghurt first, then maybe a cookie to give him something to chomp on.

Not surprised here at all, but it's true that the types of culture vary widely. I try to alternate from week to week.
