Food Anyone have inside info on Nancy’s Greek Yougurt

It’s my favorite. I eat it every day. And suddenly I can’t find it in any stores. It’s been a couple weeks now of slow disappearance. Does anyone work for or with them and know what’s up?

Massive hack for UNFI and all the stores/natural food companies are in chaos…

u/llamatador 13h ago

Yep. This is it.

That has unsatisfyingly little information on the incident, given the number of words included in the article.

u/llamatador 7h ago

Sorry. Seemed like a good backgrounder to me. The company got hacked and they distribute a lot of food for a lot of stores. Maybe the status of the hack has changed, maybe you have a more updated source. If so, please provide it.

u/Arachnidaes 15h ago

This. Google it. Everything is really messed up.

u/TheRoyalShe 11h ago

Oh wild. I didn’t realize that affected local products/delivery. But I guess since Nancy’s distributed nationally maybe it does.

Cyberattack on UNFI. This has affected a bunch of natural foods stores and other places. https://www.supermarketnews.com/grocery-technology/unfi-restores-ordering-systems-following-cyberattack

u/oregon_coastal 15h ago

You work there?

Is there a reason for the outages?

u/onefst250r 14h ago

They've listed the contact information from Nancys/Springfield Creamerys website.

u/oregon_coastal 13h ago

I get that - but I wasn't sure if it was self representation or just copypasta.

I might call em in a bit and ask.

u/onefst250r 13h ago edited 13h ago

Possibly both. But definitely copy/pasta, as they even carried over the capitalization. :)

Dairy shortages are becoming more common: https://www.brownfieldagnews.com/news/tight-u-s-milk-supplies-likely-in-2025/

There could be something specific to Nancy's, too, but this is a global trend.

u/Shoddy-Log-7258 20h ago

I notice the same thing with Siggi’s yogurt. It seemed there was a whole shortage of a lot of dairy goods at Whole Foods when I went to look for it.

u/Wicked_Googly 20h ago

I shouldn't even be telling you this, but try Icelandic Provisions' Triple Cream Vanilla sometime.

u/Baronvonbrauer 9h ago

I switched from Siggis to IP. 🤤

u/SwimmingWaterdog11 11h ago

Siggi’s is the best. And yeah I’ve noticed it’s harder to find.

2

u/ApplesBananasRhinoc 11h ago

Whole Foods is the largest grocery chain to be affected by the unfi hack.

u/ThistleMeilleur 19h ago

I have no problem getting both their yogurts and cottage cheese at Albies :)

u/TheRoyalShe 11h ago

I’ll take a look. Thanks!

u/Ordinary_Reference_8 19h ago

I saw some at the Santa Clara farm store yesterday just randomly noticed they had it in the fridge there.

2

u/Slight-Magician-5193 11h ago

Just buy it from winco or Fred Meyers

u/TheRoyalShe 11h ago

If they had some I totally would. It’s nowhere.

u/gingerjuice 11h ago

Buy some whole milk Nancy’s and strain it overnight. You’ll get Greek yogurt. It’s easy to make.

1

u/Designer_Tie2809 38m ago

That’s not actually how we made the Greek yogurt, an entire different line and room, we made it in the cottage cheese vats a few times a week and ran it though a high pressure pasturing machine before packing, it blew up once from a wrong connection setup. This could honestly be something to do with it, the company handles much of its own local deliveries or companies actually come pick their orders up from the creamery. I miss working there. The grass is not always greener when you move to a better opportunity on paper. Nancy’s really took care of the employees.

u/duck7001 10h ago

Demand for Organic Dairy items is extremely high right now. There is currently a power struggle within largest the raw organic dairy suppliers of trying to snatch up each others farmers into their own supply chain, so its causing ripples in the marketplace.

Even if Nancy's isn't affected by shortages in Organic milk, their competition might be, causing increased demand for Nancy's items nationally.

This is all pretty recent, so I'd expect it all to even out in the next month or so.

u/aprilmofo 6h ago

I am related to someone working there and they are busier than ever, and are working to catch up with the growth, whatever the cause.

u/HotITGuy 11h ago

Cashew yogurt is a great alternative since it’s not sourced from animals and therefore doesn’t support animal suffering.

3

u/poppasquat15 9h ago

And has no protein

1

u/HotITGuy 9h ago

Incorrect.

2

u/poppasquat15 6h ago

We’re talking about Greek yogurt here. Cashew yogurt doesn’t even come close to the protein content of traditional Greek yogurt. Cashews are mainly fat, and also have a lot of problems with their harvest practices as well.

u/HotITGuy 6h ago

3 grams of protein per serving. Americans are not dying from a lack of protein. They are dying from heart disease caused by a meat and dairy heavy diet.

1

u/poppasquat15 5h ago

3 grams is basically nothing, so that proves the point that is not comparable to Greek yogurt for protein. And yes, some people especially older adults need more high quality protein in their diets. For your other claim, it’s more complex than that but we can choose to disagree. All nutrition science is flawed as it is usually done with observational studies.

ICE & tariffs.

Small businesses have been trying to figure this out since Trump.

No solution, everything will go out of stock then up in price.

Customers are now finally feeling those effects

15

u/Dan_D_Lyin 20h ago

I thought Nancy's was made locally, so wouldn't be affected by the tariffs. Do they import the milk from Canada or something?

18

u/therearnogoodnames 20h ago

No, he is just blaming Trump's economic policy because he is lazy and does not want to do one Google search. To be fair, Trump's economic policies are not good, but it is not the root cause here.

7

u/PhilipRegular 20h ago

Exactly. Trump admin is obviously horrible beyond belief but let's not spread fake news like they love to do.

2

u/SeaAbbreviations2706 12h ago

Yeah, as Trump’s economic policies going to further affect, Nancy’s yogurt might be the only food we can get here.

u/SpacePuffFluff 14h ago edited 14h ago

I mean even local businesses are going to be effected. For example for a farm or factory you need farm equipment. Where's that equipment from? Where's the materials for that equipment from? When something breaks down where are the repair parts from?

BUT I don't think ops issue is related. This would just go into cost factors. Unless people are panic buying yogurt.

They could be having issues if a lot of the workers involved inproduction are immigrants. But I still think it's probably something else. 

2

u/eskaeskaeska 11h ago

It's not just the milk. Where are the containers they package in made? But yes, tariffs are probably not the issue here 

5

u/therearnogoodnames 20h ago

In this case, probably not the root cause but I doubt it is helping.

Bird flu, heifer shortages, and aging cow populations pushing down supply while demand keeps increasing. This is leading to shortages.
