Just had a job in Norwich scoping out flooding damage to the railroad that runs from Binghamton to Utica. The headquarters is in Norwich, but apparently the plant where they make the yogurt is the next valley over to the east. There is talk that once the RR is back in service Chobani may get railcar deliveries of plastic resin to make the plastic cups on-site at maybe Norwich.

Honestly, I can't believe people spend that much money on stupid yogurt, when it is like zero effort at all to make your own at home. I would innoculate whole milk with a tablespoon of the last batch, pour it in jelly jars, put it in the oven with the door cracked with a deck of playing cards, and the heat from just the oven lightbulb would maintain 112 degrees... 8 or so hours later it was yogurt... cap it up and toss it in the fridge. No effort at all once you figure out the width of the crack in the door it takes to maintain 112 degrees.
