2nd the icelandic sykr yogurt. most brands do a pretty good job keeping the sugar content down. don't buy fat free yogurt. greek yogurts are still good too for low sugar content. try to stick to plain, then add fruits and honey to control your sugar intake. greek and skyr are great...usually about 30% of your daily needs for protein in a single cup.

Have you tried mixing applesauce or sliced banana in your plain yogurt? I personally like plain greek yogurt with sliced honey roasted almonds (Trader Joe's).

Arab markets have tons of terrible processed yogurts, filled with sweeteners, corn starch and a bunch of other artificial garbage. Even the plain. Be careful what you pick

siggis! their triple cream vanilla is delicious...also have 'no sugar added' flavor options.

The sugar in Nancy's is also not artificial sugar - but organic cane sugar:
INGREDIENTS
Oatmilk (Water, Whole Oat Flour), Faba Bean Protein, Organic Cane Sugar, Tapioca Flour, Coconut Oil, Vanilla Natural Flavor, Vanilla Extract, Agar, Citric Acid, LIVE NON-DAIRY YOGURT CULTURES: S. thermophilus, L. bulgaricus.

Op here...it's more the vanilla flavor that I like, more than the sweetness. I guess I could carry around vanilla extract but I don't really have the time or space for that at work.

Fage makes a 0% milkfat vanilla. Its very hard to find. I get it at Harris Teeter. Small cup is 100 calories and has cane sugar instead of artificial sugar.

This is what I do. I drizzle honey (less than a teaspoon, maybe half), top with chia seeds, cinnamon, some pumpkin seeds

I think the low sugar Chobani is good. Sykr makes flavored yogurt too that have comparable amount of sugar (8-9 grams). I haven’t seen lower than that except in the kinds that have artificial sweetener or stevia, such as Dannon 2gm sugar ones- but the stevia taste is strong.

Or just sugar. That’s what I do. Brown, preferably.

The Icelandic Skyr plain yogurt has a really mild flavor - its not as sour as most and is super low in sugar. Their flavored yogurts are also reasonably low in sugar and so far I like them all.

I eat a lot of yogurt, but want to scale back on sugar. I don't mind plain (I add fruit) but I really prefer a mild flavor like vanilla. But they always contain a ton of sugar. I usually use the lower sugar chobani vanilla cinnamon.


Is there something else to try with even lower sugar and still good protein, but no fake sugar?
