When the label on yogurt reads cultured or it reads live/active culture, do both of these mean the same thing?
Yes!
No these are not the same thing. Cultures are used to make all yogurts. However, in those that do not say active or live on them the culture is no longer active or a live. If you are taking yogurt for the culture (such as to restore the culture in you intestinal tract after using antibiotics) you should only use those yogurts that say active or live culture.
