Dannon denies bad side effects but a simple Google Search leads to myriad reports of serious gastric distress for some folks from Actvia. i.e. http://boards.self.com/message.jspa?messageID=302166 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.90.44.22 ( talk) 18:19, 18 March 2007
Judging from the content of the Activia commercials one would have to conclude that men should not eat Activia. Godofredo29 ( talk) 19:28, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Am I misreading the last section in that the dates don't seem to mesh (2008 vs. 2007)? Was curious if this was accurate or a typo (BTW, I don't think this product was around a in Jan 2007, but I could be wrong.) 65.33.4.83 ( talk) 00:54, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
I added the bit about Jamie Lee Curtis being a national spokesperson for Activia. Something told me it would be deleted, and sure enough it was. The reasoning behind the deletion was not acceptable. The fact that an award winning, internationally well known celebrity serves as the television spokesperson for this product is completely relevant and encyclopedic; and the fact that the advertising is limited to The United States does NOT turn the tone of the article U.S.-centric.

The article was a prime example of US-centric POV, as dealt with Activia like it was US-only proiduct. I tried to globalizing it, but it needs further improvement. Feel free to ask questions about my edits, I'm here to explain them. Netrat ( talk) 04:48, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
Why would ticks on a scale be 11 microns apart? Something odd going on there. 64.41.22.26 ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 12:52, 25 January 2011 (UTC).

I have tidyed up a lot of the grammar on this page, I may have missed something though! BananaNoodle ( talk) 11:29, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
So what if the commercials had some false advertising in it. Eating yogurt as part of a balanced diet is still good for you. And that good bacteria that is in the yogurt has been there since the creation of yogurt. The person suing was probably some fat idiot who ate like six serving of yogurt in one sitting everyday. Just wait until we get some serious tort reform in America. It will put an end to this nonsense!-- Bushido Hacks ( talk) 06:49, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

It should be noted that Activia contains both Agar and Carrageenan, which are well-established laxatives. I've not seen a single article about Activia that addresses this fact. Iridescentlavender ( talk) 23:02, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

I've just noticed that a couple of pictures that I submitted to this article many years ago are showing “[attribution needed]” tags. What, exactly, is needed here?
I took a sample of Activia brand yogurt, put it under my microscope, looked for examples that appeared to be the three different bacterial claimed to be in Activia photographed them, and contributed them to this article. What is needed to constitute an “attribution”? These images are my own work, created and submitted for this one purpose.
Though I created and submitted three such images to this article (since there were three different bacteria described herein), only two are still there, both with these “[attribution needed]” tags. I don't know why the third one was removed from this article, but it now appears in the Bifidobacterium animalis article; I don't know if I put it there, or someone else did.

Per gram? Per ounce? Per gallon? Two dollars higher in relation to what? Is it a few percentage points or 10x more expensive than "other yogurts"? -- 2A0A:A544:3:0:8097:8405:5D8F:37F4 ( talk) 15:09, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
