Vanilla light nonfat yogurt

Breakdown

4 ingredients to avoid

Yoplait Vanilla light nonfat yogurt scores 37/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Yoplait Vanilla light nonfat yogurt lists 12 ingredients, starting with Cultured Pasteurized Part-skim Milk, Water, Modified Corn Starch, Fructose and Natural Flavor. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 37/100 Yoplait Vanilla light nonfat yogurt scores worse than most yogurt we have scored. A higher-scoring option in yogurt is Stonyfield Organic Organic Kids Lowfat Yogurt Strawberry at 100/100.
