Chobani is an American brand of Greek yogurt produced by Chobani Inc. Chobani yogurt is an Anglicized spelling of the Persian chob-ban, meaning "shepherd" (literally he who carries a stick –-- something that shepherds traditionally do). The Persian word was adopted by the Ottoman Turks who, in turn, carried it throughout the Middle East and into the Balkan peninsula. - Source: Wikipedia
