Savory yogurt is a type of yogurt that is usually flavored with ingredients such as herbs, spices, vegetables, or others. It is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes such as dips, sauces, and spreads and also as a snack. The innovations in the savory taste of yogurt gained traction across the globe owing to the rising demand for sugar-free products and the surging number of health-conscious consumers. Savory yogurt typically contains less or no sugar and is high in protein than traditional yogurt, making it a healthier snack or meal option.


Savory yogurt manufacturers are constantly experimenting with new flavors and ingredients, as well as serving consumers with dietary needs. For instance, in June 2023, Litehouse Inc., a manufacturer of salad dressings, vegetable relishes, sauces, and others, launched a new line of yoghurt-based lower-calorie creamy dressings. The new range includes creamy ranch, tzatziki ranch, classic Caesar, and avocado cilantro flavors, which offer consumers a way to indulge in their favorite flavors at 40 calories per serving.
