Plain yogurt and sour cream are made the exact same way... by adding live cultures to milk and leaving them at room temp for several days. The only difference is the fat content. Full fat cream is used in sour cream. Low fat or skim milk is used to make yogurt. I myself, only use plain yogurt, and I love it. It tastes wonderful on baked potatoes and its guilt free so I slather it on heavy.
