🛒 Buy on Amazon →The short answer
Dannon Oikos Triple Zero Greek Vanilla delivers 15g of protein for 90 calories per 240g cup, with no added sugar and no fat (USDA FDC 2756948). It’s sweetened entirely with stevia leaf extract, not aspartame, and carries a small dose of added chicory-root fiber. The Labelgrade is B+ (82 / 100): it sweeps saturated fat, sugar, and sodium with perfect A+ marks, and the only thing holding it back is protein density that’s solid for a snack but unremarkable for strained Greek yogurt.
Why the B+
| Dimension | Grade | Score | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Protein density | C- | 59 / 100 | 6.3g per 100g. Respectable for a snack yogurt, but lower than the best-strained Greek yogurts and far below cheese or meat — this is the one number dragging the grade down |
| Ingredient quality | B+ | 83 / 100 | Eight recognizable ingredients, no gums or artificial colors; the only “processed” notes are chicory fiber and a stevia extract |
| Saturated fat load | A+ | 100 / 100 | 0g — it’s made from nonfat milk, so there’s nothing to penalize |
| Sodium load | A+ | 100 / 100 | 65mg per cup, about 3% of the daily limit — genuinely low for any packaged food |
| Sugar load | A+ | 100 / 100 | 5g, all naturally-occurring lactose; with no added sugar there’s nothing here to dock |
| Fiber | F | 39 / 100 | 3g per serving. Unusual for a yogurt to have any, but still modest against the 28g Daily Value |
The story of this grade is lopsided in a good way: four of the six dimensions are perfect or near-perfect because the product is built to strip out the things that usually sink processed food — fat, added sugar, salt. The “F” on fiber is almost a compliment (most yogurts score zero because they contain none), and the C- on protein density is the honest catch. At 6.3g per 100g it’s a perfectly good 15g hit of protein per cup, but it is not a protein-density champion, and the score says so.
What “Triple Zero” really buys you
The name refers to three zeros: zero added sugar, zero fat, zero artificial sweeteners. The data supports all three. Fat is 0g because the base is nonfat milk. The 5g of sugar is lactose — there is no cane sugar, syrup, or juice concentrate anywhere in the list, which is why USDA records no added sugars. And the sweetness comes from stevia leaf extract, the only sweetener present. That last zero is the real differentiator: it’s a direct answer to the old aspartame-and-sucralose formulas that dominated the diet-yogurt shelf for years. If you avoid artificial sweeteners on principle, this is one of the few flavored options that doesn’t compromise.
What it is not is a sugar-free protein bomb. Fifteen grams is enough to call it “high in protein” under FDA rules (30% of the Daily Value), but a strained Greek yogurt can deliver 17–20g for the same calories. You’re paying a little protein density for the clean-sweetener, low-everything-else profile.
The chicory-fiber trick
One thing that sets this apart from a plain Greek yogurt: chicory root fiber is the second ingredient, ahead of everything except milk. That’s inulin, a soluble fiber that does double duty — it adds the 3g of dietary fiber (almost unheard of in yogurt) and lends body and a faint natural sweetness, which keeps a nonfat product from tasting watery. It’s a smart formulation choice. The one caveat worth knowing: inulin is a FODMAP, and people sensitive to it can get gas or bloating, especially if they eat several cups in a day. For most people, 3g is a non-issue and a small bonus.
How it stacks up against the other low-sugar yogurts
This sits in a crowded lane. Two Good uses a long, slow straining process to remove most of the lactose and lands in the same ~15g-protein, low-sugar territory. Chobani Zero Sugar goes further on sugar, driving it to 0g. Against both, Oikos Triple Zero’s distinguishing features are the added chicory-root fiber and a stevia-only sweetener — no monk fruit, no erythritol, no artificial blend. None of the three is a protein-density leader; if maximum protein per calorie is the goal, a plain unsweetened strained Greek yogurt still beats all of them. Where Triple Zero wins is the combination of recognizable ingredients, the cleanest sweetener of the group, and grab-and-go 5.3oz cups.
Who it’s for
Reach for this if you want a sweet, vanilla-flavored snack that won’t spike sugar, won’t add fat, and skips artificial sweeteners — a genuinely better-for-you dessert swap at 90 calories. The 15g of protein is a real bonus for a snack, and the fiber is a quiet plus. Skip it if you’re specifically protein-maxing per calorie (a strained plain Greek yogurt or cottage cheese does that job better) or if chicory-root inulin disagrees with your gut.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much protein is in Dannon Oikos Triple Zero Vanilla?
15 grams per 240g serving for 90 calories (USDA FDC 2756948). That works out to 6.3g of protein per 100g. It clears the FDA 'high in protein' bar, but for the Greek-yogurt category it's middle-of-the-pack — strained Greek yogurts often hit 17–20g for the same calories.
What does 'Triple Zero' actually mean?
Dannon's claim is zero added sugar, zero fat, and zero artificial sweeteners. The macros back it up: 0g fat, and the 5g of sugar is naturally-occurring milk lactose, not added. The sweetness comes from stevia leaf extract, not aspartame or sucralose.
Is it sweetened with stevia or aspartame?
Stevia leaf extract — it's the only sweetener in the ingredient list. That's the whole point of the 'no artificial sweeteners' positioning versus the older Light + Fit line, which leans on aspartame and sucralose.
Where does the fiber come from in a yogurt?
Chicory root fiber (inulin), added as the second-largest ingredient after milk. It supplies the 3g of fiber per serving and adds a little body and sweetness, which helps a nonfat yogurt avoid tasting thin. Some people find inulin causes gas in larger amounts.
Does it have added sugar?
No. The USDA entry lists no added sugars, and the ingredient list contains no sugar, cane syrup, or fruit-juice sweetener. The 5g of sugars is lactose from the nonfat milk base.
How does it compare to Two Good or Chobani Zero Sugar?
All three target the same low-sugar, ~15g-protein shopper. Two Good also uses a slow-straining process to cut sugar and lands near the same protein. Chobani Zero Sugar pushes added sugar to 0g entirely. Oikos Triple Zero's edge is the chicory-root fiber and a clean stevia-only sweetener; on raw protein density none of them are category leaders.
Is it 'high in protein' under FDA rules?
Yes. 15g is 30% of the FDA 50g Daily Value, above the 20% threshold needed to make the 'high in protein' claim. The 'high in protein' label is honest even though the per-100g density only earns a C-.
