Facebook Response Leads to Athenos Greek Yogurt

[vivelhistoire]

I don't care if they add more products to their line (I eat Cabot Greek yogurt anyways), as long as they keep the Yiayia videos on Youtube coming... That's the best thing about Athenos!

[Phersephoie]

yeah...hummus is as foraign to us as it is to you..

[omegatron7532190]

Αthenos is not Greek at all.Original Greek products are with the label of Fage or Mevgal. Hummus from Athenos ha ha ha ha. Since when an arabian plate is Greek???Only in America you can see these things.

[aelialicinia]

@omegatron7532190 Actually hummus (an Arab word) chcik pea spread - was being prepared for thousands of years around the Mediterranean and probably by the Greeks first.

[ilovegreece]

[MrsSaltedSugar]

[phae7hon]

Wanna try real Greek yoghurt in the States? Try fageusa.com

[jackthayer]

i don't care what ppl say i actually like their products

[OdilleWanDerK]

the grandmothers,at least 2 in 3 (that i can recognize)are great Greek actresses

[eletse68]

@OdilleWanDerK yes they are Greek actresses and very good indeed! But the products are not Greek and they shouldn't be advertised as Greek.

ade gamisou malakes, mono fage theloume...

[cpkay33]

marshall hyzdu? that doesn't sound remotely greek at all. you'd think a greek brand would be run by greeks, no? ai gamisou.

[572470521D32]

FAGE. FAGE FOREVER.

[midniteKnite]

THIS IS NOT GREEK YOGURT.THIS IS A PRODUCT FOR IDIOTS ONLY....

[intactGB]

good thing Athenos came out

now we can delight in the hilarious Yiayia commercials

[andreasfmpro]

Athenos is nothing more than a cheat, as they lead people into believing it is a Greek product. They play into the supposedly Greek origin of the product with the ancient Greek font and the name 'Athenos', which sounds suspiciously like 'Athens', the Capital of Greece.

[idleprechaun]

@andreasfmpro WELL NO F***ING S**T SHERLOCK do you think it would sell if it was written in cyrillic? Athens is the capital of greece? Well arent you just a bag of answers?

[andreasfmpro]

@idleprechaun Aren't you just a miserable, angry douchebag?

[idleprechaun]

@andreasfmpro haha actually no im just not a fan of people that stand up on their soap box stating the obvious. Why do you think panda express in the states uses asian themes? Because it serves asian food. The food is by no means asian but they wouldnt get as much business without using asian themed food, lettering, and mascots...

[andreasfmpro]

@idleprechaun The point is not how the deceptive use of the name Athenos and the ancient Greek font suits KRAFT's marketing. The point is that they are deceiving unsuspecting consumers.

What I wrote may not be news to you, but it is to a lot of people--the very people who stand to be deceived by KRAFT and their KRAFTy techniques.

[autolycuswolf]

@idleprechaun Cyrillic? CYRILLIC? oh the irony, the ignorance... Greeks, use the GREEK alphabet just an FYI... try to get your facts straight before acting like an asshat.

BTW unless KRAFT has some production facility in Greece or imports the raw materials from Greece directly and I highly doubt that, ATHENOS products are as Greek as I'm an astronaut. You're better off with FAGE products which are indeed 100% Greek and are imported directly from Greece. True story

[idleprechaun]

@autolycuswolf you have got to be kidding me... the jokes on you buddy cuz that was part of the joke... i was stating the significance of the usage of the greek font by saying it wouldnt sell as many products if it was written in Cyrillic. It would come in handy if people had a higher IQ than 80 on here so that they could understand sarcasm.

[DemiAndElpida]

guess what people!!!! anthenos is int real AUTHENTIC Greek yogurt the only real thing is fage u people got some bad taste in yogurt im greek and proud !!!!!!!!!

[buffalolegend]

@DemiAndElpida Fage is the ONLY GREEK YOGURT ! Zito Hellas !

[gsdmama2]

Yogurt everyday for 48 years! Thanks to Yiayia's homemade Greek Yogurt. Fage comes close. Will have to try Athenos.

[unbiasedbystander]

FAGE (φαγε), a Greek brand, is now available and marketed in the US.

[darragh909]

yea, i really like when food you like get famous, especially when you see a celebrity eating your favourite food. its like, yea! tom cruise likes rusty ring donuts too!

[krispykreemess]

Wow, everybody's riding the yogurt bandwagon now. I wasn't into yogurt until recently when all these frozen yogurts became more famous.
