Moving to new countries almost always involves a change in diet. Sometimes it’s deliberate, and sometimes it happens without you noticing. Recently, I have noticed that our yogurt consumption seems to have gone up by exponents. At present, we are eating about 2 kilos of yogurt every 4-5 days. Plenty of Lebanese dishes do involve a lot of yogurt, but still....
I have no idea of how this is happening. It’s not like we each chomp our way through a towering bowl of yogurt each morning, but nonetheless, it keeps getting eaten.

Maybe you're enjoying the taste of lebanese yoghurt...
But I think if you're comparing with your eating habits say in germany, your body needs way less calories/fat since you're not burning any to stay warm. This triggers a preference for low-fat food.
Your exercise may also affect the food habits.
There is also this thing about milk products in lebanon, they're fresh, cheap, taste good and are a convenient and healthy way to satisfy your hunger.
Can I get fried chicken in Beirut?
maybe there is some other non foodstuff based use of yoghurt that the rest of the family isn't telling you about !
