The starter cultures help convert the milk into yogurt during fermentation, creating the unique taste and creamy texture Greek yogurt is known for.

Due to the pause on soft plastic collection through the REDcycle program, Chobani® and Chobani FiT® pouches (pouch and lid) must be disposed of in your general waste kerbside bin. For more information on the status of the REDcycle program visit www.redcycle.net.au.
You may notice our packaging still advises you to return our Chobani® and Chobani FiT® pouches to store for recycling. We are now updating this advice on our pouches to advise Australian consumers to place empty packaging in your general waste kerbside bin. This change should be seen on all pouches by the end of 2023, once we have used all our existing packaging up.
