Greek yogurt is often higher in protein than regular yogurt because it is strained, but the protein in frozen yogurt varies a lot from shop to shop, so always check the nutrition information.
Why Greek yogurt is often higher in protein
Straining Greek yogurt removes much of the whey, which leaves a thicker yogurt. This is why Greek yogurt is generally known for having more protein than regular yogurt. Once it is blended, sweetened and frozen, the final protein content depends on the recipe.
What to check before you order
- Ask for the nutrition information per serving, including protein.
- Check the serving size: a bigger cup means more of everything.
- Ask what the base is made from and how much sugar is added.
