Household Ingredients Compared  ›  Yogurt (Singapore)

Yogurt: what's actually in it?

The short answer depends entirely on which yogurt you mean. A plain strained Greek yogurt can be just milk and cultures. A "Greek-style" tub can start with water. A flavoured cup can be a fruit syrup, sugar and thickeners wrapped around a yogurt base. And a drinking yogurt can be mostly water and sweetener, with milk solids some way down the list. This page keeps those four families apart — plain spoonable, Greek/Greek-style, flavoured spoonable, and drinking yogurt — and never merges them into one list.

This page does not give a health score, a ranking, or a "best" pick. It shows the ingredient list as printed, flags added sugar and sweeteners, names the live cultures as printed, and notes where milk or cream sits in the list, so you can compare like with like.

Prices are deliberately not shown here: they change weekly and would go stale. This site compares ingredients only. Low-fat / non-fat is a fat claim, not a separate ingredient family: the low-fat and non-fat panelled products are tagged in the table above and in their panels, rather than double-counted in a second list. The full low-fat picture is: Marigold Non-Fat and Low Fat cups, Meiji Low Fat cups, Chobani Fit and Flip low-fat yogurts, FAGE Total 0%, Chobani Plain Non-Fat, and Marigold 0% Fat drinking yogurt — all in the sections below.

Plain spoonable yogurt

Plain here means unflavoured and not sold as Greek/Greek-style. Even in this small group, the lists split three ways: milk + cultures, milk + cream + milk solids + cultures, and milk + milk proteins + a preservative.

Brownes Natural Traditional Yoghurt (Australia)

Pack size: not stated · Made in: Australia (as printed)

Ingredients: Milk, Milk Solids, Cream (From Milk), Live Cultures (including L. acidophilus, Bifidobacterium, L. casei).

All dairy, no added sugar, no thickener named. Cream is third, so this is a full-fat plain yogurt, not a low-fat one. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no

Meiji Bulgaria Yoghurt — Natural / LB81 Plain 400g (Japan list — see flag)

Pack size: 400g · Made in: Japan (as printed)

Ingredients: Raw milk, Dairy products (Japan)

CP-Meiji Singapore describes Bulgaria as a functional set yogurt made from fresh milk with no additives and no artificial flavouring or stabilisers, fermented cup by cup with LB81 cultures licensed from Bulgaria. The list above is Meiji's Japan official list for LB81 Plain 400g, not a verified Singapore pack transcription — the Singapore FairPrice listing for Bulgaria Natural (2 × 110g) was confirmed as a listing, but its full SG ingredient section was not retrieved in this pass. Do not assume the Japan list and the SG cup are identical without a pack check. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no (in this list) Flag: Japan list, SG pack unverified

Emmi Swiss Premium Yoghurt — Plain (Switzerland)

Pack size: not stated · Made in: Switzerland (as printed)

Ingredients: Swiss milk, milk proteins, preservative: potassium sorbate, live lactic cultures (Sc. thermophilus, Lb. bulgaricus, Lb. acidophilus)

Open Food Facts list, cross-checked against FairPrice Singapore's listing for Emmi Swiss Premium (the FairPrice ingredient section itself was not retrieved in this pass). Note the preservative: this is the only plain panel below that names potassium sorbate. Milk proteins are the protein-boosting dairy ingredient here, in the same role as milk solids elsewhere. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no Preservative: potassium sorbate

Marigold Low Fat Yoghurt — Natural, 130g (FairPrice Singapore) Added in re-audit, 5 Nov 2026

Pack size: 130g · Made in: Singapore (as printed)

Ingredients: Milk Solids, Permitted Stabiliser, Live Cultures (Streptococcus Thermophilus and Lactobacillus Bulgaricus)

FairPrice Singapore ingredient section, origin Singapore, Halal, Healthier Choice. The shortest Marigold list on this page: milk solids, a permitted stabiliser and the two starter cultures — no water (unlike Marigold Greek Style Natural), no tricalcium phosphate (unlike the Marigold flavoured cups), no added sugar. Note the FairPrice key-information text on this page is a generic fruit-yogurt description ("chunky fruit goodness") that does not match a plain natural cup — the ingredient section above is what this panel relies on, not the marketing text. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no Low-fat

Greek and Greek-style yogurt

This is where the front of the tub is least reliable. "Greek" on FAGE and Chobani corresponds to a strained, milk-and-cultures list. "Greek-style" on most other tubs corresponds to a list rebuilt with milk solids, cream, water and/or an emulsifier. The panels below are in that order — strained first, rebuilt second — so the difference is visible, not just asserted.

FAGE Total 0% Fat Natural Greek Yogurt (Greece, via FairPrice)

Pack size: 950g · Made in: Greece (as printed)

Ingredients: Pasteurised Skimmed Milk, Live Active Yogurt Cultures (L. Bulgaricus, S. Thermophilus, L. Acidophilus, Bifidus, L. Casei).

The cleanest list on this page: skimmed milk plus five named cultures, nothing else. FairPrice lists it as a nonfat strained yogurt, origin Greece. The FairPrice text fetch in this pass did not display an ingredient section, so the list is quoted from Open Food Facts and a FairPrice-quoting forum thread, which agree word for word — verify on the SG pack before publishing as a pack transcription. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no 0% fat

FAGE Total 5% Fat Natural Greek Yogurt

Pack size: 450g · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Pasteurised skimmed milk, cream (milk), live active yoghurt cultures (L. Bulgaricus, S. Thermophilus, L. Acidophilus, Bifidus, L. Casei).

Same five cultures as the 0% version; the only difference is cream, which is what makes it 5% fat. Open Food Facts list for the 450g Total product. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no

Chobani Plain Non-Fat Greek Yogurt (Australia/US list — see flag)

Pack size: not stated · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Cultured nonfat milk. 6 live and active cultures: S. thermophilus, L. bulgaricus, L. acidophilus, Bifidus, L. casei, and L. rhamnosus.

Chobani's signature list: cultured nonfat milk plus six cultures, including L. rhamnosus, which no other plain panel here names. The list above is the US/Australian Chobani plain list; the Singapore FairPrice listing for Chobani plain Greek was confirmed, but its full SG ingredient section was not retrieved in this pass, so this panel is flagged as a non-SG list and must be checked against the SG tub before publishing. The Australian whole-milk variant, by contrast, lists Skim Milk, Cream, Live Yogurt Cultures — do not mix the two variants. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no Flag: non-SG list, SG pack unverified

Farmers Union Greek Style Yoghurt — Natural (Australia)

Pack size: not stated · Made in: Australia (as printed)

Ingredients: Milk Solids, Skim Milk, Live Yogurt Cultures (Milk) (S. Thermophilus, L. Bulgaricus).

Milk solids come first — the protein/thickness here comes from added dairy solids, not from straining alone. Still only dairy + cultures, no thickener, no added sugar, and the brand states no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives and gelatine-free. Compare with the FAGE list above: same two starter cultures, very different first ingredient. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no

Brownes The Greek Yoghurt — Natural (Australia, via FairPrice Finest)

Pack size: not stated · Made in: Australia (as printed)

Ingredients: Milk, Cream (From Milk), Milk Solids, Chicory Root Fibre (1%), Live Yoghurt Cultures (including L. acidophilus, Bifidobacterium, L. casei).

Open Food Facts Singapore listing (store: NTUC FairPrice). Milk first, then cream, then milk solids — a richer, full-fat Greek-style list, with chicory root fibre (a prebiotic fibre, 1%) as the only non-dairy ingredient besides cultures. No added sugar. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no

Tamar Valley Dairy Greek Style Yoghurt — Natural (Australia, via FairPrice)

Pack size: not stated · Made in: Australia (as printed)

Ingredients: Milk, Cream (from milk), Milk Solids, Live Cultures (from Milk)

Same four-part structure as Brownes The Greek, minus the chicory root fibre, and with the culture strains not named in the source list. Australian retail listings give the same list word for word. FairPrice Singapore lists Tamar Valley Greek Style Yoghurt — Raspberry as a related product; the natural tub list above is the Australian list and should be checked against the SG tub before publishing. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no Flag: Australian list, SG pack unverified

Marigold Greek Style Yoghurt — Natural (Singapore)

Pack size: 1kg · Made in: Singapore (as printed)

Ingredients: Water, Milk Solids, Emulsifier, Live Cultures (Streptococcus Thermophilus, Lactobacillus Bulgaricus).

FairPrice Singapore ingredient section, origin Singapore, Halal. This is the most rebuilt list in the Greek section: water first, milk solids second, an emulsifier third, and only the two starter cultures. The front says "No sugar added. No artificial sweetener" — and the list bears that out (no sucrose) — but "no sugar added" does not mean "just milk": the first ingredient is water. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no

Meiji Greek Style Yoghurt — Natural (Singapore, seller summary — see flag)

Pack size: 1kg / 500g · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients (as summarised by a Singapore seller): Milk solids, milk cream, fresh milk, live cultures

FairPrice Singapore lists Meiji Greek Style Yoghurt — Natural in 1kg and 500g. The detailed Thai Open Food Facts breakdown for the same product name gives a more complex picture — milk and dairy products 12.6% (skimmed milk powder 5.1%, full-cream milk powder 5.0%, milk protein concentrate 2.0%, butterfat 0.5%), milk cream 12.6%, cow's milk 10%, with L. bulgaricus, S. thermophilus, Lactococcus lactis and Bifidobacterium lactis — which is consistent with a milk-solids-built Greek-style yogurt, but it is a Thai listing, not a Singapore pack. This panel therefore quotes only the short Singapore seller summary and flags the Thai breakdown as non-SG. A pack transcription is needed before publishing. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no (in summary) Flag: seller summary only, SG pack unverified

Jalna Greek Style Natural Yoghurt (Australia)

Pack size: not stated · Made in: Australia (as printed)

Ingredients: Pasteurised Whole Milk, Cream (from Milk), Live aBc Probiotic Cultures (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium lactis & Lactobacillus casei, >1 Billion Probiotic Count Per 100g). Contains Milk.

Open Food Facts Australian list. Unlike Farmers Union and Marigold, Jalna's Greek natural list names no S. thermophilus / L. bulgaricus starter pair — it prints its "aBc" probiotic trio instead. Jalna was found in Singapore coverage as a praised import, but no Singapore retailer ingredient section was retrieved in this pass, so this is an Australian list for a product sold in Singapore through import channels — verify the SG tub before publishing. Allergen: milk Added sugar: no Flag: Australian list, SG pack unverified

Flavoured spoonable yogurt

The pattern is consistent: a yogurt base (usually milk solids or fresh milk first) plus a fruit/syrup blend that carries the sugar, plus thickeners, flavourings and, in several Meiji cups, a preservative and colourings. "Low fat" and "non-fat" on these cups describe fat, not sugar — every Marigold and Meiji flavoured cup below adds sugar, and the only flavoured cups here without added sugar are the two Chobani Fit cups that use stevia-derived sweeteners instead, plus the Tamar Valley pouch, whose list names no sugar or sweetener at all.

Farmers Union Greek Style Yoghurt — Vanilla Bean

Pack size: not stated · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Milk, Milk Solids, Cream (Milk), Water, Sugar, Thickener (Modified Starch), Natural Flavour, Acidity Regulators (Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate), Vanilla Bean Seed (Min. 0.01%), Natural Colour (Carotene), Live Yogurt Cultures (Milk): S. Thermophilus & L. Bulgaricus.

Open Food Facts list. Sugar is fifth, after milk, milk solids, cream and water; modified starch is the thickener, and the vanilla bean seed itself is only 0.01% minimum — most of the vanilla character comes from natural flavour. Added sugar: sugar Allergen: milk

Brownes The Greek Yoghurt — Honey (FairPrice)

Pack size: 1kg · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Yoghurt [Milk, Cream (From Milk), Milk Solids, Chicory Root Fibre (1%), Live Yoghurt Cultures (Including L. Acidophilus, Bifidobacterium, L. Casei)], Honey (6%)

FairPrice Singapore ingredient section. Same Brownes Greek base as the natural version, plus honey at 6%. Honey is an added sweetener even though it is not sucrose — the "naturally honey sweetened" front claim does not make this an unsweetened yogurt. Added sweetener: honey 6% Allergen: milk

Jalna Pot Set Creamy Vanilla Flavoured Yoghurt (Australia)

Pack size: not stated · Made in: Australia (as printed)

Ingredients: Pasteurized Whole Milk, Milk Solids, Suga [sic — as printed in source], And Natural Vanilla Flavour (0.25%), Enzyme (lactase) And Live Probiotic Cultures (lactobacillus Acidophilus, Bifidobacterium & Lactobacillus Casei > One Billion Probiotic Count Per Serve). Contains Milk.

Secondary source list (Spoonful, transcribing the Australian pack). Lactase is in the list — the enzyme that breaks lactose into glucose and galactose — so this yogurt is presented as easier to digest; it does not remove the added sugar. Australian list; SG pack unverified. Added sugar: sugar Allergen: milk Flag: Australian/secondary list

Marigold Non-Fat Yoghurt — Peach & Mango (FairPrice)

Pack size: 2 × 130g · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Milk Solids, Peach and Mango Blend (Sucrose, Peach, Mango, Permitted Flavouring, Malic Acid, Potassium Sorbate), Permitted Stabiliser, Tricalcium Phosphate, Live Cultures (Streptococcus Thermophilus and Lactobacillus Bulgaricus)

FairPrice Singapore ingredient section. Note the order inside the fruit blend: sucrose comes before peach and mango. Tricalcium phosphate is the added calcium source. Produced in a factory where soy and fish products are also handled (FairPrice allergen note). Added sugar: sucrose Allergen: milk Non-fat

Marigold Low Fat Yoghurt — Peach

Pack size: 130g · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Yoghurt [milk solids, permitted stabiliser, live cultures (Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus)], peach blend (peach, sucrose, modified starch edible gum, permitted flavouring, ascorbic acid, potassium sorbate, citric acid).

Open Food Facts Singapore listing (130g). Here peach comes before sucrose inside the blend — the reverse of the Peach & Mango blend above — but sucrose is still in the blend, and modified starch + edible gum are the thickeners. Added sugar: sucrose Allergen: milk, peach Low-fat

Marigold Low Fat Yoghurt — Peach, 1kg tub (Open Food Facts Singapore listing — flagged) Added in re-audit, 5 Nov 2026

Pack size: 1kg · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Milk solids, peach blend (peach, sucrose, permitted flavouring, citric acid, ascorbic acid, potassium sorbate), permitted stabilised, live cultures (Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus)

Open Food Facts Singapore listing, barcode 8888026263003, 1kg tub, serving size 125g. This is a different pack from the 130g cup above: the blend here has no modified starch or edible gum, and the base has no tricalcium phosphate — do not copy the 130g cup's list onto the 1kg tub, or vice versa. "Permitted stabilised" is reproduced as printed in the Open Food Facts transcription (presumably "permitted stabiliser"). Verify on the SG 1kg tub before publishing. Added sugar: sucrose Allergen: milk, peach Low-fat

Marigold Non-Fat Yoghurt — Mixed Berries

Pack size: not stated · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Yoghurt (milk solids, permitted stabiliser, tricalcium phosphate, live cultures (Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus)), berry blend (sucrose, strawberry, blueberry, raspberry pulp, modified starch, permitted flavouring and stabiliser, sodium citrate, potassium sorbate).

Open Food Facts Singapore listing. Again sucrose leads the berry blend, before strawberry. Same Marigold base as the other non-fat cups: milk solids + stabiliser + tricalcium phosphate + the two starter cultures. Added sugar: sucrose Allergen: milk Non-fat

Meiji Low Fat Yoghurt — Strawberry

Pack size: 135g · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Yoghurt (fresh milk, skimmed milk powder, whey protein concentrate, milk fat), Strawberry syrup, Sugar, E1422, E1442, E440, Nature identical flavouring, B. lactis, L. acidophilus, L. bulgaricus, S. thermophilus, E211, E330, E124

Open Food Facts Singapore listing (135g, countries sold: Singapore, Thailand). Fresh milk leads the yogurt base — unlike Marigold's milk-solids-first base — but the cup still adds a strawberry syrup plus sugar, three thickeners (E1422, E1442, E440), a preservative (E211, sodium benzoate) and a colouring (E124). Four cultures are named, including B. lactis. Added sugar: sugar Allergen: milk Low-fat Preservative: E211

Meiji Low Fat Yoghurt — Mango

Pack size: not stated · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Yoghurt (Fresh Milk, Skimmed Milk Powder, Whey Protein Concentrate, Milk Fat), Mango Syrup (Mango, Sugar), Thickener (E1442, E1422, E440), Artificial Flavouring, Acidity Regulator (E330), Bifidobacterium lactis, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Preservative (E211), Colouring (E102)

Open Food Facts Singapore listing. Same base and thickener set as the strawberry cup, with mango syrup (mango, sugar) instead of strawberry syrup, artificial flavouring (strawberry used "nature identical"), and a different colouring (E102 vs E124). Added sugar: sugar Allergen: milk Low-fat Preservative: E211

Meiji Low Fat Yoghurt — Aloe Vera (FairPrice)

Pack size: 135g · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Fresh Milk, Aloe Vera Cube, Sugar, Modified Corn Starch, Flavouring, Sodium Benzoate, Lactobacillus Bulgaricus, Strptococcus Thermophilus [sic — as printed on FairPrice listing]

FairPrice Singapore ingredient section (135g). The simplest Meiji flavoured list: fresh milk first, aloe vera cube second, sugar third, one modified starch, flavouring, and sodium benzoate as preservative. Only the two starter cultures are named here, unlike the strawberry/mango cups' four. Added sugar: sugar Allergen: milk Low-fat Preservative: sodium benzoate

Meiji Soft Yoghurt — Mix Berry

Pack size: 135g · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Yoghurt (fresh milk, skimmed milk powder, whey protein concentrate, milk fat), Mixed berry syrup (strawberry, blueberry, raspberry juice concentrate), Sugar, E1422, E1442, E440, Nature identical flavouring, B. lactis, L. acidophilus, L. bulgaricus, S. thermophilus, E330, E211, E124, E133

Open Food Facts listing (135g). Same Meiji flavoured structure as strawberry, with a three-berry syrup and two colourings (E124, E133). Added sugar: sugar Allergen: milk

Chobani Fit Greek Yoghurt — Salted Caramel (FairPrice)

Pack size: not stated · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Skim Milk, Water, Rice Starch, Natural Flavours, Enzyme (Lactase), Natural Colour (Caramel), Sweetener (Steviol Glycosides), Vegetable Gum (Pectin), Salt, Mineral Salt (Calcium Citrate), Acidity Regulators (Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate), Live Cultures (Milk)

FairPrice Singapore ingredient section. FairPrice's own bullets say "No Added Sugar or Artificial Sweeteners" and "Lactose Free Greek Yogurt" — the sweetener here is steviol glycosides (from stevia), and lactase is the lactose-free enzyme. Rice starch and pectin do the thickening; there is no sucrose, sugar or honey in the list. Cultures are not strain-named in this list. Added sugar: no — sweetener: steviol glycosides Allergen: milk

Chobani Flip Greek Yogurt — Cinnamon Scroll (FairPrice)

Pack size: 140g · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Cinnamon Flavoured Low Fat Yogurt (90%) [Skim Milk, Sugar, Water, Cream (Milk), Brown Sugar, Butter (Milk), Vegetable Gums (Pectin, Guar Gum), Cinnamon (0.03%), Caramelised Sugar, Mineral Salt (Calcium Citrate), Natural Flavours, Acidity Regulators (Lactic Acid, Sodium Citrate), Salt, Live Cultures (Milk)], Golden Crumble (4%) (Milk, Soy, Wheat), Whipped Cream Flavoured Fudge (2%) (Wheat, Milk, Soy), Coated Rice Crisps (2%) (Milk), White Chocolate (2%) (Milk, Soy).

FairPrice Singapore ingredient section. A Flip is two products in one tub: 90% flavoured yogurt + 10% toppings. The yogurt itself already has three sweeteners (sugar, brown sugar, caramelised sugar) before the toppings, which add wheat, soy and more milk. Cinnamon itself is 0.03% of the yogurt. Added sugar: sugar, brown sugar, caramelised sugar Allergen: milk, soy, wheat, gluten May contain: almond, Brazil nut, cashew, hazelnut, macadamia, pecan, pine nut, pistachio, peanut, walnut, egg, sesame

Chobani Flip Yogurt — Triple Brownie (FairPrice)

Pack size: 140g · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Choc Low Fat Yogurt (90%) [Skim Milk, Sugar, Water, Cream (Milk), Cocoa (0.4%), Vegetable Gums (Pectin, Locust Bean Gum, Guar Gum), Acidity Regulators (Lactic Acid, Sodium Citrate), Mineral Salt (Calcium Citrate), Live Cultures (Milk)], Choc Cookie (4%) (Wheat), Choc Fudge (3%) (Wheat, Soy, Milk), Milk Chocolate (2%) (Milk, Soy), White Chocolate (1%) (Milk, Soy).

FairPrice Singapore ingredient section. Same Flip structure: skim milk first, sugar second in the yogurt, cocoa only 0.4%, then cookie/fudge/chocolate toppings. Added sugar: sugar Allergen: milk, wheat, soy

Chobani Fit Protein Low Fat Yoghurt — Strawberry Choc Hit (FairPrice)

Pack size: not stated · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Low Fat Yoghurt (82%), Skim Milk, Enzyme (Lactase), Live Yoghurt Cultures, Strawberry Blend (9%), Strawberries (50%) Water, Rice Starch, Natural Flavours, Vegetable Gum (Locust Bean Gum), Acidity Regulators (Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate), Vegetable Gum (Fruit Pectin, Locust Bean Gum), Black Carrot and Blackcurrant Concentrate, Stevia Leaf Extract, Salt, Mineral Salt (Calcium Citrate), Roasted Almond (5%), No Added Sugar Chocolate Cookie (4%), No Added Sugar Dark Chocolate (4%), Cocoa Soy Crisp (1%)

FairPrice Singapore ingredient section, quoted as printed (including the compressed "Strawberries (50%) Water" phrasing). No added sugar in the yogurt or the toppings; sweetness comes from stevia leaf extract, and the toppings are labelled "No Added Sugar". Almond and soy are in the toppings. Added sugar: no — sweetener: stevia leaf extract Allergen: milk, tree nut (almond), soy, gluten May contain: gluten, peanuts, tree nuts, egg, sesame

Tamar Valley Dairy Kids Greek Yoghurt Pouch — Raspberry (Australia list — see flag)

Pack size: 110g · Made in: Australia (as printed)

Ingredients: Whole milk, Cream, Milk Solids, Seedless Raspberry Pulp (4.0%), Rice Starch, Natural Flavours, Live Yoghurt Cultures.

Australian retail lists for the 110g pouch. FairPrice Singapore lists Tamar Valley Greek Style Yoghurt — Raspberry as a product name, but the pouch list above is the Australian list, not a verified SG pack transcription. Notably, no sugar, sucrose or sweetener appears in this list — the raspberry pulp is 4.0% and rice starch is the thickener. Added sugar: none in list Allergen: milk Flag: Australian list, SG pack unverified

Drinking yogurt — a separate list, not a runny tub

Drinking yogurts and cultured milk drinks are fermented milk drinks: thinner, usually sweetened, and built from water + milk solids + sweetener + cultures rather than from a set yogurt. They are listed here on their own, with their own first ingredients, so nobody mistakes a bottle drink's water-first list for a tub's milk-first list.

Marigold Yoghurt Bottle Drink — Strawberry (FairPrice)

Pack size: not stated · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Water, Fructose, Sucrose, Milk Solids, Permitted Stabiliser and Emulsifier (of Plant Origin), Strawberry Juice Concentrate, Dextrin, Calcium Lactate, Permitted Flavouring, Citric Acid, Streptococcus Thermophilus, Lactobacillus Bulgaricus, Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Permitted Colouring

FairPrice Singapore ingredient section. Water, fructose and sucrose all come before milk solids — this is a sweetened drink with yogurt cultures, not yogurt diluted with water. FairPrice describes it as made from nonfat yogurt with real fruit juice, probiotic cultures and calcium; the list itself shows strawberry juice concentrate, not strawberry pulp. Added sugar: fructose, sucrose Allergen: milk

Marigold Yoghurt Drink 0% Fat — Mixed Berries

Pack size: 700g · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Water, fructose, milk solids, juice concentrate (grape, blueberry, cranberry, mulberry, raspberry), stabiliser (plant), emulsifier (of plant origin), flavouring, citric acid, live cultures (Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Lactobacillus acidophilus), colouring.

Open Food Facts Singapore listing (700g). Same water-first structure as the bottle drink, with fructose as the only named sweetener (no sucrose in this list) and a five-berry juice concentrate blend. Added sugar: fructose Allergen: milk 0% fat

Vitagen Cultured Milk — Less Sugar (Assorted) (FairPrice)

Pack size: 5 × 125ml · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients (LB flavour): Dietary Fibre (Polydextrose, Inulin Prebiotics), Sucrose, Fructose, Milk Solids, Permitted Stabiliser, Emulsifier, Glucose, Permitted Flavouring, Lactic Acid, Probiotics (L. Acidophilus, L. Casei)

Ingredients (Fruit flavour): Dietary Fibre (Polydextrose, Inulin Prebiotics), Fructose, Milk Solids, Fruit Juice Concentrate, Sucrose, Permitted Stabiliser, Emulsifier, Glucose, Permitted Flavouring, Citri/Lactic Acid [sic — as printed], Permitted Colouring, Probiotics (L. Acidophilus, L. Casei)

FairPrice Singapore ingredient section. "Less Sugar" here means less than regular Vitagen, not sugar-free: both flavours list sucrose and fructose, and fibre (polydextrose + inulin prebiotics) comes first — the prebiotic fibre is part of Vitagen's positioning, alongside the two probiotic strains. A Malaysian listing for the same assorted product gives a different order (fructose, skimmed milk solids, polydextrose…) — see research notes; the FairPrice SG list above is the one used here, and the difference is flagged rather than silently resolved. Added sugar: sucrose, fructose, glucose Allergen: milk

Yakult Original (general list — SG pack unverified, see flag)

Pack size: 100ml · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Water, skimmed milk, glucose-fructose syrup, sucrose, citrus, live Lacticaseibacillus casei Shirota

General Yakult ingredient list (formerly classified as Lactobacillus casei Shirota). Yakult Singapore's own site confirms the SG product is made by fermenting skim milk powder with L. paracasei strain Shirota, that a small amount of sugar is added to feed the probiotics and counteract sourness, and that it contains no preservatives or stabilisers — but it does not publish a full SG ingredient list, and no full SG pack list was retrieved in this pass. The list above is therefore flagged as general, not SG-pack-verified. Singapore-specific notes: SG bottles are 100ml, and SG flavours have included original, grape, apple and (from July 2026, replacing orange) peach — the flavoured SG variants were not panelled, as their SG lists were not retrieved. Added sugar: glucose-fructose syrup, sucrose Allergen: milk Flag: general list, SG pack unverified

Yakult Gold (non-SG retailer list — see flag)

Pack size: 5 × 80ml · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: Sugar, Skimmed milk powder, Glucose, Calcium Lactate, Niacin, Vitamins (B12, B6 and D), Live Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota. Natural identical Flavor (Citrus). Fat Free. No cholesterol. No Gluten. No Preservatives

Retailer list (Spinneys) for Yakult Gold 5 × 80ml. FairPrice Singapore lists Yakult Cultured Milk Drink — Gold (10 × 100ml), so the product is sold in Singapore, but the list above is not a Singapore pack transcription and the pack size differs — verify on the SG pack before publishing. Yakult Singapore describes Gold as tasting similar to Original but with lesser sugar and fortified with vitamin D; the list above shows sugar first, which is consistent with a sweetened cultured drink, not a sugar-free one. Added sugar: sugar, glucose Allergen: milk Flag: non-SG list, SG pack unverified

Calpis Non-Carbonated Drink Can (Asahi, via FairPrice)

Pack size: 500g · Made in: not stated (as printed)

Ingredients: High Fructose Corn Syrup, Sugar, Skimmed Milk Powder, Probiotic Beverage, Acidulant, Flavouring, Stabilizer (Soybean Polysaccharides).

FairPrice Singapore ingredient section, in FairPrice's Yoghurt Drinks category. Calpis is a fermented milk drink, not a spoonable yogurt — and its list makes that plain: high fructose corn syrup first, sugar second, skimmed milk powder third, with the probiotic element listed only as "Probiotic Beverage" (no strain named). Added sugar: high fructose corn syrup, sugar Allergen: milk, soy (stabiliser source)

Nutrition — what the numbers say

How to read this section. Salt = sodium × 2.5. Sodium is shown as printed, with the salt equivalent in brackets. Where a source printed salt only, sodium is shown as salt ÷ 2.5 and flagged with †. Figures are per 100g or per 100ml wherever the source gives per-100 figures. Where a source gives per serving only, the row is quoted exactly as per serving and flagged "per serving, not per 100g/ml" in the Basis column — it is not converted, and it must not be compared directly with a per-100 row. Sugars here are total sugars as printed on the pack, not added sugars: most Singapore packs list total sugars, and the ingredient list on this page remains the evidence for whether sugar was added. No Nutri-Grade has been assigned and no health score or ranking is given. A dash (—) means that column was not stated in the source used, not zero.

As sold, per the sources in the research notes. The plain strained yogurts tabled here show total sugars of 3–3.53 g per 100 g; the flavoured and drinking yogurts tabled here show 7.9–15.4 g total sugars per 100 g. Sodium tabled per 100 g ranges from 38 mg (FAGE Total 0% and Marigold Non-Fat Mixed Berries, as printed/derived) to 120 mg (Marigold 0% Fat Yoghurt Drink — Strawberry, Open Food Facts Singapore listing). Those are observed numbers only, not a verdict or a ranking.

How to read a yogurt label — the jargon, in plain English

Greek vs Greek-style
There is no single legal definition on the packs checked here, so the ingredient list is the test. A strained Greek yogurt (FAGE, Chobani plain) lists milk + cultures, with whey strained out. A Greek-style yogurt (most others here) gets its thickness another way: added milk solids, cream, water + emulsifier, or thickeners. "Greek-style" on the front does not tell you which method — the first three ingredients do.
Milk solids / skimmed milk powder
Dried milk components added back to thicken yogurt and raise protein. Milk-solids-first yogurt (Farmers Union Natural, Marigold cups) is not the same as milk-first yogurt, even when both are plain.
Live cultures / live active cultures
The bacteria that ferment milk into yogurt. The minimum pair is Streptococcus thermophilus + Lactobacillus bulgaricus. Extra strains printed on some packs — L. acidophilus, Bifidobacterium / B. lactis, L. casei, L. rhamnosus — are additional probiotic cultures, not the yogurt starters themselves. "Contains live cultures" without strain names (several Chobani lists) is a weaker statement than a named-strain list.
Lactase
An enzyme that breaks lactose into glucose and galactose, so the yogurt is lower in lactose and may taste slightly sweeter with no added sugar. It appears in Chobani Fit, Jalna Vanilla and (by brand description) lactose-free products. It does not remove added sugar elsewhere in the list.
Steviol glycosides / stevia leaf extract
Sweeteners from the stevia plant. A product using them can truthfully say "no added sugar" while still being sweetened — see Chobani Fit Salted Caramel and Strawberry Choc Hit. That is different from unsweetened (FAGE, Chobani plain, Farmers Union Natural), which lists no sweetener at all.
Stabiliser / emulsifier / vegetable gum / modified starch
Permitted food conditioners that keep texture stable and stop separation. Pectin, guar gum, locust bean gum, E1422, E1442 and E440 all do this job in different products here. Their presence alone does not make a yogurt "artificial" — but a list that needs three of them plus a preservative (Meiji flavoured cups) is a formulated product, not just fermented milk.
Preservatives: E211 / sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate
E211 is sodium benzoate. Meiji flavoured cups use it; Emmi plain uses potassium sorbate. Most plain and Greek panels here name no preservative.
Tricalcium phosphate / calcium citrate / calcium lactate
Added calcium sources. Marigold cups use tricalcium phosphate; Chobani Fit/Flip use calcium citrate; Marigold's bottle drink uses calcium lactate. They are mineral salts, not milk.
Chicory root fibre / inulin / polydextrose
Soluble fibres added as prebiotics (food for gut bacteria) or for texture. Brownes uses chicory root fibre at 1%; Vitagen lists polydextrose + inulin first, before any milk ingredient.
Drinking yogurt / cultured milk drink / fermented milk drink
Three names for the same shelf family in Singapore retail: a drinkable fermented milk product, usually water- and sweetener-first. Yakult and Vitagen are cultured milk drinks; Calpis is a fermented milk drink; Marigold's bottle/drink products are yogurt drinks. None of them should be compared ingredient-for-ingredient with a spoonable tub.
Sucrose vs sugar vs fructose vs glucose-fructose syrup vs honey
All are added sweeteners, listed under different names. Sucrose is table sugar. "Sugar" on a pack usually means sucrose. Fructose is fruit sugar, used as a sweetener in its own right in Marigold drinks and Vitagen. Glucose-fructose syrup and high fructose corn syrup are syrup sweeteners. Honey is also an added sweetener (Brownes Honey, 6%). If any of these appear, the product has added sugar/sweetener — distinct from lactose, naturally present in milk.

Seen but not verified — do not panel until checked

These products were found listed for sale/delivery in Singapore in this pass, but no verbatim ingredient list could be verified from a retailer ingredient section, the brand's SG page, or a cross-checked Open Food Facts listing. They are listed here so the gap is visible, not hidden. Reasons are given per item.

Checked 5–6 November 2026 from: NTUC FairPrice product pages (ingredient sections, retrieved directly for Marigold Greek Style Natural, Marigold Non-Fat Peach & Mango, Meiji Low Fat Aloe Vera, Brownes The Greek Honey, Chobani Fit Salted Caramel, Chobani Flip Cinnamon Scroll, Chobani Flip Triple Brownie, Chobani Fit Strawberry Choc Hit, Marigold Yoghurt Bottle Drink Strawberry, Vitagen Less Sugar Assorted, Calpis); Open Food Facts Singapore listings cross-checked against FairPrice where both were available (Marigold Low Fat Peach, Marigold Non-Fat Mixed Berries, Meiji Low Fat Strawberry/Mango, Meiji Soft Mix Berry, Marigold Yoghurt Drink Mixed Berries, Brownes The Greek, Tamar Valley Natural); Open Food Facts / Australian retail lists for Farmers Union, Jalna, Tamar Valley pouch and Emmi, flagged as non-SG where applicable; brand official pages (CP-Meiji Singapore FAQ for Bulgaria/Soft descriptions, Yakult Singapore for strain/sugar rationale, Meiji Japan Bulgaria official lists); and secondary coverage for launch/channel facts (Arla September 2026 launch, Evia Cold Storage promotion). Full per-fact source list, with URLs and conflicts flagged, is in the accompanying research notes. Where a full pack list could not be verified, the page says so — in the panel flag, in the seen-but-not-verified appendix, or both — instead of filling the gap. Open Food Facts is a community database: its listings are useful for cross-checking, but the pack and the retailer's ingredient section take precedence if they disagree.
