Yogurt and the Vegetarian Diet
Yogurt is a popular dairy product created through the fermentation of milk using specific bacterial cultures, primarily Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus. The fermentation process thickens the milk and imparts a tangy flavor. While traditional yogurt is made from cow's milk, non-dairy alternatives such as soy, almond, cashew, and coconut yogurts are available for those avoiding dairy.
