Green Yogurt

Just thought you might like to know what it's like to buy yogurt here... At the corner store where we do most of our staple food purchases, we kept seeing these shallow clay pots with white paper over the top of them. I wondered, "What are they growing in there?!" A few days later, I sent P.J. out for some yogurt to go with our dinner, and he returned with one of those small potted plants. Little did I know the plants were actually terra cotta pots filled with yogurt. Somehow the pot keeps the yogurt cool and also helps it not get too watery since it is somewhat porous. It tastes great and leaves us with perfect little planters for our personal use later. Their yogurt really is "green!"
