Chobani is an American brand of strained yogurt produced by Chobani, LLC. The company was founded in 2005 when Hamdi Ulukaya, bought a plant in the town of New Berlin, New York, that was being closed by Kraft Foods. Ulukaya hired several of the former Kraft employees as well as a "yogurt master" and launched his brand in 2007. == History == The word ''chobani'' is derived from the Turkish ''çoban'' meaning "shepherd". The word çoban can be found in other languages such as Chopan/چوپان (Persian) çoban (Azerbaijani), çopan (Turkmen, Uyghur, Uzbek), şopan, (Kazak), çaban (Kyrgyz), çapan (Tatar),〔Prof. Dr. Tuncer Gülensoy, Dictionary of Etymology of Turkish Words in Turkish of Turkey〕 cioban (Romanian). Chobani has over 1,200 employees and is the top-selling brand of yogurt in the United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://articles.businessinsider.com/2011-10-08/markets/30257496_1_greek-yogurt-chobani-dannon )〕 In 2012, Chobani became an official sponsor of the US Olympic Team and premiered their first national commercial during the 2012 Summer Olympics opening ceremony. On December 17, 2012 Chobani opened one of the world’s largest yogurt-processing plants in Twin Falls, Idaho. The one million square-foot facility cost $450 million and employs 300 people. Mr. Ulukaya said “The state expects the total economic impact of our business there to be $1.3 billion.” The plant won the 2013 DBIA Design-Build Project of the Year award and the 2013 Food Plant of the Year award from ''Food Engineering'' magazine. On September 3, 2013, Chobani pulled some of its Greek-style yogurt from supermarket shelves after hearing of "swelling or bloating" in cups. The company said it has investigated and found a type of mold commonly found in dairy that may be to blame. Chobani announced a voluntary recall on September 5, in cooperation with the FDA. On September 9, 2013, the FDA reported at least 89 people have reported getting sick after eating the yogurt.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/fda-receives-89-reports-illness-yogurt-20210604 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chobani」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
