From Chobani Instagram Chobani is my most favorite yogurt brand. The taste is unforgettable. Especially its Key Lime Flavor, I just can't stop falling love with it.  For a product like a yogurt, the switching cost is very cheap. In Stop & Shop, for 5.3 oz Greek yogurt with Strawberry, the price of Chobani is $1.39, and the price of Fage is $1.19. The switching cost is only 20 cents. If you have a membership card, the switching cost will be less than 20 cents.  Even though the yogurt prices are so close, people can still find their own favorite brands based on their preferences.
