I'm not exactly sure why, but for pretty much ever, yogurt has been marketed as a sort of health food – mostly for women.

I can't wrap my head around the reason why yogurt would be viewed as something that 'manly men' doesn't consume, but that way of thinking is definitely changing as Oikos, the yogurt brand now owned by Dannon, is doing their best to convince men to go ahead and give it a try.

Oikos is the official yogurt of the NFL and if you hadn't noticed, they're peppering cable sports channels with ads, mostly featuring Cam Newton.

Yogurt is good for all people at all ages. As a matter of fact, it can help you get drop weight, it's got good for you bacteria that help you fight digestive issues and it's loaded with vitamins. And those are just a few of the benefits!

If the 6-foot-5, 245-pound superstar quarterback Cam Newton who plays for the Carolina Panthers eats yogurt, then all men should be able to, right?
