About Yoplait Original Vanilla
Yoghurt sits in an odd spot: some of the 12.4 g per 100 g is the milk's own lactose, the rest is the sugar listed second on the label. The pot is 170 g, so the total lands at 21 g — about the same as a small glass of orange juice, in a product that reads as breakfast rather than dessert.
Is that a lot of sugar?

Overall composition
Nutri-Score C
Computed by Open Food Facts using the published Nutri-Score algorithm. Not assigned or endorsed by the manufacturer.
Nutri-Score grades the whole nutritional composition per 100 — energy, sugars, saturated fat and salt against fibre, protein and fruit or vegetable content — on a scale from A to E. It is a European front-of-pack scheme. It rates a product, not a diet, and says nothing about how much of it you drink.
Concentration follows the UK Department of Health front-of-pack thresholds for total sugars. The serving reading follows the WHO orientation value for free sugars. Nutri-Score is reproduced from the source named above. All three are applied mechanically to the declared figures for the market shown. None of them is a judgement about the product, and none is medical or dietary advice — what a given amount of sugar means for you depends on your whole diet and circumstances.
