Summary

Go-Gurt Strawberry Splash scores 8/100. A squeezable yogurt tube marketed to kids with SpongeBob branding, but nutritionally dismal. Nonfat milk is stripped of healthy dairy fats. Sugar is the 2nd ingredient with a staggering 18g added sugars per serving (36% DV) — more sugar than many candy bars. Modified food starch and corn starch replace natural yogurt thickness. Potassium sorbate is added as a chemical preservative, and 'natural flavor' provides ambiguous lab-derived taste. Zero real fruit despite the 'Strawberry Splash' name — color comes from vegetable juice concentrate. Essentially sugar-milk gel in a tube. Owned by General Mills.
