Cold foods/yoghurt ?

I offer Spunky several foods , some veggies and some meat and a few dusted crickets at feeding time eveyday.
I have him for 5 days now and he only ate some crickets and wax moths so far, he didn't touched the liver, beef and chicked I tried to feed him.... today I was eating some yoghurt infront of his case and I got currious if he might liked to try some.He loved it! :p
He ate it when it was still pretty cold ( I just got it out of the fridge) and tried to stick his whole mouth in it several times, then shiverd and took a few sips. I didn't gave him to much because I didn't know if it might be bad for tegu's to eat ( doesn't stand on the food list).
It was plain bio yoghurt, no sugar added.

Can it hurt if I give him sometimes yoghurt as a treat ?
And is it ok to feed it cold the way I eat it, or should i warm it up a little ?

I have given my tegus yogurt before also. either plain or with alittle fruit.. just not all the time and very little at a time. i believe it helps with there digestive tract! make sure it is organic thou.. most yogurts have too much sugar in it and that is bad for them
