Who are these formats for?

You want 0% Greek yoghurt in a ready-portioned pot

A pot that’s ready to eat means you don’t have to measure out a serving. Auchan France lists DELTA 0% in two 150 g pots and states that each pot contains 14.4 g of protein.

You’re making several portions from a large tub

You’re happy to serve each portion yourself and store what’s left. Auchan France lists FAGE Total 0% natural Greek yoghurt in a 950 g tub, with 0 g of fat and 10.3 g of protein per 100 g.

You like Greek-style yoghurt but keep an eye on fat

The name alone isn’t enough to identify a 0% product. Carrefour France lists 7 g of fat per 100 g for Danone, while E.Leclerc lists 7.9 g per 100 g for DELISSE.

How do the options compare?

For Greek yoghurt as a single meal, check the fat content first, then choose between a ready-to-eat pot and a large tub that you’ll portion yourself. If you’re considering Danone HiPRO Vanilla, compare it as a high-protein dairy product rather than as Greek yoghurt.

Criterion What to check Who it matters to
Fat Check the value per 100 g for the exact product; don’t assume it’s 0% just because it’s labelled ‘Greek-style’. If I’m mainly looking for 0% Greek yoghurt, texture won’t help me decide: around 33% of consumers prioritise this criterion.
Individual portions Check how many pots there are and how much each contains; a large tub means serving each portion yourself. If I want to eat without measuring or resealing a large tub, I need a portion that’s already separated. This is the top priority for around 27% of consumers.
Natural or flavoured Compare the ingredients and the ‘of which sugars’ line for each flavour; 0% fat doesn’t tell you how much sugar it contains. If I prefer to put my own meal together, I want to tell the difference between a natural yoghurt and a flavoured preparation: around 20% of consumers prioritise the recipe’s ingredients.
Buying fresh products Check availability at your shop, the use-by date and the storage instructions. When I’m shopping for several meals, I need to be able to find the product and keep it until I’m ready to use it. Local availability and the product date are the main priorities for around 20% of consumers.

What to avoid before you buy

  • Assuming ‘Greek-style’ means ‘0%’

    An individual pot and a thick texture don’t tell you how much fat the yoghurt contains. Carrefour France lists 7 g per 100 g for the Danone Greek-style yoghurt reviewed; E.Leclerc lists 7.9 g per 100 g for DELISSE.

    Check the ‘fat’ line per 100 g before choosing a format or flavour.

  • Assuming a 0% flavoured product contains no added sugar

    Here, 0% refers to fat, not necessarily the other ingredients. The Carrefour France listing for DELTA Lemon Meringue mentions a lemon preparation containing sugar.

    Check the ingredients list and ‘of which sugars’ line for the specific variety; a natural version lets you choose what to add.

  • Choosing a large tub when you want a ready-to-eat portion

    The 950 g FAGE Total 0% listed by Auchan France can provide several meals, but you’ll need to serve each portion separately and store the rest once opened.

    Choose individual pots if you don’t want to portion it yourself. Otherwise, follow the use-by date and the pack’s instructions for storing the large tub.

Brands worth comparing

DELTA

A 0% strained Greek yoghurt in individual pots.

  • Auchan France lists the natural version in 2 × 150 g pots, with 0 g of fat and 14.4 g of protein per pot.
  • Ingredients vary by flavour: the Carrefour France listing for the Lemon Meringue version mentions a preparation containing sugar.

FAGE

Natural 0% Greek yoghurt in a large tub, ready to portion yourself.

  • The Auchan France listing for FAGE Total 0% in a 950 g tub states that it contains 0 g of fat and 10.3 g of protein per 100 g; Carrefour France lists a recipe made with skimmed milk and live cultures.
  • The 950 g tub doesn’t come in ready-separated individual portions.

Danone

Two categories to keep separate: Greek-style yoghurt and a high-protein dairy product in a pot.

  • According to the Danone France HiPRO listing, HiPRO Vanilla is a 160 g pot of dairy product labelled 0% fat, with 15 g of protein per pot.
  • HiPRO Vanilla isn’t Greek yoghurt and contains sweeteners. Danone Greek-style yoghurt, listed by Carrefour France, contains 7 g of fat per 100 g.

DELISSE / Marque Repère E.Leclerc

Greek-style yoghurt in individual pots; compare the fat content before choosing.

  • E.Leclerc lists the natural version in four 150 g pots.
  • Its listing states that it contains 7.9 g of fat per 100 g, so it isn’t a 0% product.

Yoplait

The Panier 0% range is a different category from the Greek yoghurt featured here.

  • The Yoplait Panier 0% page describes the product as ‘fat-free’, but its nutrition table states that it contains 3.8 g of fat per 100 g. Check the label on the product you choose before relying on this description.

Frequently asked questions

Is Greek-style yoghurt always 0% fat?

No. Carrefour France lists 7 g of fat per 100 g for Danone, while E.Leclerc lists 7.9 g per 100 g for DELISSE. Check the value for the specific product rather than relying on its name.

Which format should I choose for 0% Greek yoghurt without having to portion it?

DELTA 0% in two 150 g pots, listed by Auchan France, comes in ready-separated portions. FAGE Total 0% in a 950 g tub also works for several individual meals if you’re happy to serve each portion yourself.

Is flavoured 0% Greek yoghurt always free from added sugar?

No. The Carrefour France listing for DELTA 0% Lemon Meringue mentions a lemon preparation containing sugar. Check the ingredients and ‘of which sugars’ line for each flavour; the listing for FAGE Total 0% natural yoghurt, by contrast, describes a recipe with no added sugar.

How should I store a large tub once it’s been opened?

Reseal it and follow the storage instructions on the packaging, as well as the use-by date. Anses recommends putting perishable foods back in the fridge after use and eating them within three days of opening.
