Comparing frozen yogurt nutrition facts

Nutrition facts can be very confusing, especially in the world of frozen yogurt where you deal with both weight and volume. Because frozen yogurt contains air, the weight and volume are not the same.

Unfortunately, some companies have used this to promote misguided nutrition facts.

Check out this story in a New Orleans newspaper that uncovers some of this misinformation: http://www.nola.com/health/index.ssf/2012/08/5_ways_to_avoid_potentially_hi.html

When evaluating nutrition facts for frozen yogurt make sure to look at the grams in the serving size – not just the ounces. Most companies use about 80-90 grams as their serving size.
