The Take

Plain yogurt is healthy. Flavored versions are not. Slop Score: 16.

Buy the stuff with two ingredients and 15-20g protein per cup. Skip anything with a dessert label on the front.

The Verdict

Plain yogurt earns its keep. Everything else is marketing dressed as breakfast.

Pair it with Fage 5% or Siggi's plain — stack the protein, skip the sugar ambush. Slop Score: 16.
