CleanPlate reviewPlain Greek yogurt with 8 g protein per cup
Milky Mist Plain Greek Yogurt is a 100 g cup made from double toned milk and milk solids, with lactic cultures and the probiotic Bifidobacterium lactis (BB-12). The panel is printed per 100 g.
CleanPlate scores it BA1. The B for nutrition reflects 8 g protein and natural calcium per 100 g. The A for ingredients reflects whole or lightly processed ingredients (led by pasteurized double toned milk and milk solids), and almost no additives. The 1 for risk is low: sodium, free sugar and saturated fat are all modest (sodium 67 mg, free sugar 0 g, saturated fat 0 g per 100 g).
