TILLAMOOK, Ore. — Tillamook’s popular line of 6-oz. yogurts is expanding with three new flavors, all made with no artificial flavors, no artificial colors, no artificial sweeteners and no high fructose corn syrup, and like all of its products, Tillamook Lowfat Yogurt is made with the highest quality milk from cows not treated with artificial growth hormones. Additionally, the company is launching Vanilla Bean and Naturally Plain yogurts in new 32-oz. cartons and expanding distribution of six of its popular 6-oz. flavors in the West.
The latest additions to the lowfat yogurt line include creamy Banana Vanilla, tart Pomegranate Blackberry and antioxidant-rich Blueberry Acai.

Tillamook, known for its award-winning cheddar cheese, is meeting increased consumer demand for lowfat yogurt with expanded distribution in California and the Southwest.
