  It's definitely a market exploitation in the US (can't speak for the UK) that's getting out of control. The fact that you can't define what it is that makes it Greek means companies can use all kinds of artificial thickeners to achieve the desired viscosity. Most ignorant consumers will hop on the trend and buy it up thinking it's healthy or good for you.

  Call it labne in the US and see how much less is purchased/sold.
