In the left corner we have the strawberry-flavored featherweight six pack and in the right corner we have the heavyweight plain tub-style. While featherweight packs a big caloric punch and a sucker punch to the wallet, it's a knockout for the healthier, more inexpensive heavyweight! Ok, back to my inside voice. While the yogurts both cost $2.49, you get 50% more for your money if you go with the larger size. The plain yogurt also has only 40 calories per serving as opposed to the smaller size's 110 calories. That's 63% less! Even if you add 2 teaspoons of sugar to a serving of the plain, it would still be only 70 calories per serving.
Tips for flavoring plain yogurt: mix in frozen blueberries, fresh fruit, pureed fruit, honey, or a teaspoon or two of jam.
*The price and calorie analysis were calculated on Yoplait plain large size yogurt instead of Kroger brand. I forgot to save the Yoplait container for the picture!
