Greek Yogurt does have the higher protein and lower sugar IF ou buy the plain yogurt. Buying the ones with added fruit cancels out the lower sugar.

I have been on Nutrisystem for over 3 years. Greek yogurt is a staple on the plan. Plain. Greek Yogurt was an acquired taste for me. I always add cinnamon for flavor. Read the ingredient labels to compare sugar a and protein grams. 12 grams of protein r more is ideal. Add fresh fruit vs. the sugary mix the mfg. adds if you are watching sugar intake.
