Skyr? I first had that in Iceland several years ago, was genuinely ecstatic when I first heard there were plans to sell it in the UK.

Here is a helpful trick to remember yoghurt vs. yogurt in your writing.

Yoghurt is common in British English, but seldom used in America. On the other hand, yogurt is common both in American and British English.

This graph looks at the usage of yogurt and yoghurt in the corpus of British English books written since 1800. As you can see, yoghurt and yogurt were both used throughout the 20th century, with yogurt being more common before roughly 1982, when the words’ positions reverse.

Since this chart focuses on books to the exclusion of other print sources, it is hardly exhaustive, but it still shows us that both yogurt and yoghurt are in widespread use in British English today.

In other words, yogurt will never be incorrect—no matter where you are. Yoghurt, however, should be avoided in American English.

To remember that yoghurt is the primarily British spelling of this word, think about the H that it shares with the word British. There is no H in the word American, and yoghurt should not be used in American English.
