I'm a grown-up, at last :)
P.S. Adding a teaspoon or so of plain yogurt to a bowl of my homemade butternut-squash-and-Granny-Smith-apple soup makes it nice and creamy, even though my chosen plain yogurt is fat-free.
A tallit-and-tefillin-wearing woman in a traditional Conservative synagogue?! An unorthodox—and non-orthodox—perspective on Jews and Judaism from a perpetual misfit. This blog, welcoming the entire Jewish community, is dedicated to those who take Judaism seriously, but not necessarily literally.

Once upon a time, I belonged to a left-wing egalitarian Conservative synagogue, where I was one of a number of women who wore a tallit—and one of the few members who used an Orthodox prayer book (adding the Mothers, of course). Having moved since then, I now belong to a right-wing traditional Conservative synagogue, where I’m almost always the only woman wearing a tallit—and one of the few members who adds the Mothers. I seem destined to be forever . . . on the fringe.

So you can eat plain yogurt. Here's the bigger question: why would you want to?
Yogurt is a great source of calcium, a serious consideration for Ms. Osteoporosis, here. As for eating it plain, Garnel, I think it's healthier to save the sugar for junk food, of which I eat more than enough. That's the same reason why I've been busting my chops making my own butternut squash soup--I don't think it's healthy to add sugar to *everything.* I've been mixing sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds into my plain yogurt, instead.
