The skyr.is website says it's available through Whole Foods. From what I've read, you need to add some pre-existing skyr as a starter, and also rennet. Let me know how it turns out!

I guess I always thought yogurt begat yogurt, at least it did when I made it, but don't know about the Icelandic type.

Jersey's give half and half with huge lovely cream globules. I loved making butter and cream cakes back in the "old days."
