Did You Know?

We picked up yogurt at the grocery store this afternoon. Colin is a yogurt-a-holic. He chose the yogurt with sprinkles, and I wondered how much extra sugar the sprinkles added. So, for your edification -- Dannon strawberry yogurt with sprinkles contains 19 grams of sugar per serving. Refrigerated Jello chocolate pudding also contains 19 grams of sugar per serving. So I made him get the Yo-Baby Organic yogurt (variety pack of vanilla and banana flavors). I got it home, and out of curiosity, looked at the sugar in this yogurt (which is marketed as a healthy babyfood). It has 16 grams of sugar per serving, the same as a serving of Jello brand vanilla cook-and-serve pudding.

No wonder Colin likes yogurt so much.
