The severity and symptoms of lactose intolerance may vary individually but many people with lactose intolerance may be able to consume some dairy products, such as hard cheese - which is naturally very low in lactose - and yoghurt - which contains live cultures which have already broken down some of the lactose. 

Lactose intolerance is different to cow’s milk allergy which is a severe and potentially life-threatening condition where all dairy products must be strictly avoided. Fresh’n Fruity Greek Yoghurt is NOT suitable for someone with a dairy or cow’s milk allergy.

Tubs

Our 1kg yoghurt tubs are made of polypropylene (#5) which is collected for recycling in New Zealand through kerbside and local council recycling centres. Check out your local council’s website to find out more about what packaging can be recycled in your area and whether they accept PP lids for recycling as some councils do and some don’t. Make sure you rinse the tub clean before you put it in the recycling bin as this helps reduce contamination and ensures tubs get recycled into new materials.

Cardboard sleeves

Our cardboard sleeves are recyclable through your household recycling and local council recycling centres.

Pottles

We are working hard to ensure the rest of our packaging is recycle-ready by mid 2026, including our pottles and seals. This transition takes time as we need to ensure that any new packaging material we use has been fully tested across the life cycle of the product. In the meantime, please dispose of these responsibly in your general waste bin.

Reusing your containers

There are loads of great ideas out there for reusing yoghurt pottles and tubs. One of our favourites is using tubs or pottles to grow seedlings. We also love decorating them and using them for kids arts and crafts – they are great at holding crayons and paint brushes.
