What You Should Know

You'd find ELLENOS Vanilla Bean Greek Yogurt in the refrigerated dairy case, perfect for a creamy breakfast bowl, brunch spread, or a grab-and-go snack. It reads indulgent yet wholesome — thick, vanilla-scented with visible vanilla specks — offering a slightly decadent everyday treat. The ingredient list (pasteurized milk and live cultures alongside milk protein concentrate, added sugars and natural flavor) points to moderate industrial processing that delivers a strained texture and boosted sweetness, consistent with a processed dairy product rather than a minimally processed one.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Contains real yogurt cultures and milk but also added cane sugar/honey, milk protein concentrate and natural flavor — industrially processed ingredients that raise its processing level. The absence of many typical ultra-processed additives (e.g., emulsifiers, colorants) keeps it in NOVA 3 (processed food) rather than NOVA 4.
