I will be going to israel and will need yogurt for my baby.
Here in America I feed her YoBaby.
I know there are many types of yogurts in israel and I'm trying to just make the "search" easier for myself.
I am looking for a yogurt that is high in fat, low in sugar, and if possible organic.
which yogurt would I want to buy.

When you say "high in fat," what do you mean? Is 3% okay? Or do you want something more rich?
Strauss makes a 3% "bio" yogurt that has no sugar and is good (imo). It's from their "Danona" line, blue & white package, sold in 8-packs, but can also be purchased separately. They also have a 1.5% version of this product in similar packaging. Note that they also make a sweetened "yogurt ma'adan" in very similar packaging, so read the label carefully.
See the first group of photos on the left:

They also make a pricier Greek-style yogurt with a higher fat content, but it's not as obiquitous. It comes in individual round containers.

Also, you can find specialty organic yogurts, including goats' milk yogurt, in health food stores.

There are gemadim (definitely high fat), but they're definitely sweetened.

Im not sure gemadim are technically yogurts, I don't think they have any yogurt cultures in them. I think it's mostly gvina levana.

Strauss has 'Greek yogurt' which is 7% fat. It's plain, so you can add something to it if your baby doesn't eat plain yogurt. You get in it packs of 4. The packaging is blue and has a picture of a greek-looking woman on it.

There are so many yogurts on offer in the big supermarkets. I can get goat, buffalo, sheep, organic - you name it. OP you will have fun looking for things here. I don't know that YoBaby is anything special, except that they get mommies to shell out extra $$$ for it being whole milk and organic. It's still cow's milk yogurt and I highly doubt the cow was free-range and grass-fed. Just my instinct. Anything you buy here that's whole milk and organic should be comparable.
My #5 was brought up on plain Danoneh 3% plain yogurt sucked up with a straw and he lived to tell the tale. No added color or sweeteners.

thank you all.
I guess I'll have to wait and go to the market myself when I arrive.
I am not thrilled with the price of yobaby but I've been searching and there is nothing really comparable. Dannon in america that is not fat free/low fat has the same 4g per 4oz but a lot more sugar than yobaby, and any just basic organic yogurt (like what I buy for my older kids) is low fat, with only about 2g of fat in a serving of 7 oz.

This is OT, but why are you giving a sweetened product at all?
