Instructions: * The yogurt in Greece is much thicker than any yogurt available in the states, cause almost all the water has been drained out of it. You can achieve the same effect by taking plain yogurt and draining it through a sieve lined either with a couple of thicknesses of cheesecloth or a large coffee filter. Stir in a tablespoon of salt into the yogurt and keep it in the refrigerator or a cool place for 24 hours with a container placed underneath to catch the water. The salt will drain out along with the water. You will have however about half the amount of yogurt that you started with....

Yogurt and honey are the best things to eat when traveling. Theyre particularly good if you can eat the yogurt "of" the country and have it with a couple of spoonfuls of the local honey on top. That way you get the benefit of the local bacteria introduced benignly and gently in your intestines without the rude shock of "travelers tummy"!

Another way to eat yogurt (well, ok, a Greek way): try a few spoonfuls on your favorite non-sugared cereal instead of milk and add some honey on top. Its almost more like a crunchy dessert than breakfast!
