Skyr is a food product from Iceland. It's a dairy based yogurt-like substance (though thicker) and is very high in protein while being low fat. Regular, unflavored skyr has about 13g of protein per 100 while the flavored usually has slightly above 11g of protein per 100. It's most common to buy it flavored or mix flavors after buying the unflavored version due to the bitter taste of the unflavored version. It's very healthy and completely natural.
