What You Should Know

You'd find this in the refrigerated plant-based yogurt aisle — a go-to for weekday breakfasts, smoothie bowls, or dairy-free baking. It reads healthy and modern, but the smooth, stable texture is achieved with added starches and gums (citrus fiber, locust bean gum, xanthan), which are typical signs of industrial formulation to mimic dairy yogurt.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:4 / 4

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

Although based on simple almond milk, the presence of industrial additives (starch, citrus fiber, locust bean gum, xanthan gum) used to modify texture and shelf stability indicates reformulation typical of ultra-processed foods (NOVA 4).

Common Questions about Unsweetened Plain Almond Yogurt, 32 OZ

The unsweetened almond yogurt is a pretty solid option if you're looking for a low-sugar, dairy-free alternative. With just 140 calories per serving and only 1 gram of sugar, it can fit well into a balanced diet. Of course, 'healthy' is subjective—it's great for someone avoiding dairy or looking to cut back on sugar, but it won't replace the nutritional density of Greek yogurt.
