Siggis

Rated at 3 out of 5 green leaves, the Siggis Nonfat Mixed Berries & Acai yogurt presents a middle-ground option for those seeking cleaner food choices. This product is not certified organic, and it does not specify the use of non-GMO ingredients, which detracts from its overall green leaf rating. Moreover, the addition of cane sugar is a notable downside, as it contributes to the product’s sugar content.

The Siggis Nonfat Mixed Berries & Acai yogurt is made with pasteurized skim milk and a blend of fruit purees, including raspberry, blackberry, strawberry, and acai berry. The use of fruit pectin suggests a commitment to maintaining a thicker texture without resorting to artificial thickeners. The live active cultures in the yogurt are beneficial for digestive health, which is a positive aspect of the product.

The presence of cane sugar, however, raises concerns. While sugar is a common ingredient in many foods, its addition here results in a lower score on the green leaf scale. The product does not include alternative sweeteners or sugar substitutes, which might be preferable for those aiming for a diet with less added sugar.

This yogurt offers a blend of nutrients and live cultures, packaged within a product that does not meet the highest standards for organic and non-GMO sourcing. It stands as an option for consumers who are not strictly organic but are still looking for a product that is healthier than many conventional alternatives. The inclusion of real fruit purees and the absence of artificial thickeners align with the goal of providing cleaner food choices, yet the added sugars and lack of organic certification leave room for improvement. Overall, the Siggis Nonfat Mixed Berries & Acai yogurt achieves a moderate standing, offering some benefits while also having areas where it does not fully align with the cleanest food practices.
