I'm pretty sure I saw the Astro 'Balkan' plain yogurt at No Frills for $1.99, but I believe the size was 650g.

SAFE! You need to buy plain yogurt and the one with active bacterial cultures. There are instructions on the net, but basically you put a few spoons in the milk, let it sit somewhere where the temperature is constant (like oven) for a while and depending on how long it sits you will have stronger or lighter yogurt. Once you put it in the fridge the making of yogurt stops.

Costco sells 2pk 1kg Liberte plain yogourt for $5.69... works out to be $2.13/750g.

Not under $2, but it contains probiotic w/ active acidophilus, L.casei and bifidus cultures.

Not sure where you're located, but No Frills (at least in Mississauga) always sells the plain No-Name brand yogurt for $1.99 for the 750 g. It's the one I always buy.

Ya, that is how people got their yogurt before being able to pick it up at the corner store. You don't need one but it is handy to have an appliance especially designed for this purpose (otherwise known as a yogurt maker). It's a bit more of a chore without one but it can be done. You don't need a culture from one of the fancy new probiotic yogurts but they do provide some beneficial bacteria that say Astro Balkan doesn't. Always use as fresh a culture as possible when starting your yogurt. Then you just keep reserving some of the culture to make a continuous supply. Instructions are readily available by doing a google search.

I heard they are good for you, but again I am no expert. :cheesygri
