FAQ
- Does vitamin D fortification change the density or weight of this yogurt?
- No. Vitamin D is added in microgram quantities (2.5-3 micrograms per serving), which is far too small to affect the density of 1.036 g/ml. The fortified and unfortified versions weigh identically at approximately 245 g per cup. The vitamin D is fat-soluble but dispersed in the dairy matrix at negligible concentrations.
- How does fruit variety nonfat yogurt compare to plain nonfat yogurt for baking?
- Both share the same density of 1.036 g/ml (~245 g/cup), but fruit variety yogurt contains 10-15 g more sugar per serving from the fruit puree and added sweeteners. In baking, this extra sugar will accelerate browning and add moisture. Reduce other sweeteners in the recipe by 1-2 tablespoons per cup of fruit yogurt used.
- Why are so many nonfat yogurts fortified with vitamin D?
- Vitamin D is naturally present in milk fat, so removing fat to make nonfat yogurt also removes most of the vitamin D. Fortification restores this nutrient. A 245 g cup of this yogurt typically provides 2.5-3 mcg of vitamin D, comparable to what a cup of whole-milk yogurt would contain naturally.
