About these values

The record is plain, nonfat Greek yogurt. Flavored Greek yogurt has other values. The USDA record is "Yogurt, Greek, plain, nonfat" (Foundation, FDC ID 330137). It gives 10.3 g of protein and 61 kcal per 100 g.

Protein in a portion is its weight times the protein per 100 g, divided by 100. For 1 container of Greek yogurt: 156 × 10.3 ÷ 100 = 16.1 g. Values on this page are rounded to 0.1 g.

A packaged food's own label can differ from the USDA average. When you have the label, its numbers are the ones for that product.
