Chobani Greek Yoghurt Pouch Raspberry
Chobani Greek Yoghurt Pouch Raspberry: independently scored 6.2/10 on Protein Score and 6.8/10 on Clean Score by ProteinScore.
10.7g protein per serve · 125 cal · 13.9g sugar · 41mg sodium · 140g serve.
Overview
Compared to the brand's own 'No Sugar Added' pouches, this raspberry version takes a significant turn towards sweetness. The No Sugar Added Greek Yoghurt Pouch Blueberry, for instance, contains 6.8g less sugar per 100g. With 13.9g of sugar in this 140g pouch, it sits well above the category average and is best viewed as a dessert or occasional sweet snack. Protein is respectable, landing at 7.6g per 100g, which is typical for a Greek-style yoghurt and a touch above the average for the category we track. This comes from the strained skim milk base, which concentrates protein. However, it doesn't reach the levels of dedicated high-protein yoghurts, including others in the Chobani lineup. The ingredient list totals 12, which is right on the category average. It includes skim milk, cream, and raspberry, alongside three vegetable gums (pectin, guar gum, and locust bean gum) to ensure the texture remains smooth and consistent in the pouch format. It also contains live cultures, as expected from a traditional yoghurt base.
Protein Score: 6.2/10
Is this a high-protein yoghurt? At 7.6g of protein per 100g, it sits within the typical Greek yoghurt range but doesn't compete with high-performance options. The 10.7g of protein per pouch earns it a 4.7/10, landing it below the category average for yoghurts we've tested. Stack it against Chobani's own 'Fit' or '20G Protein' pouches, and the gap is clear. Those options are specifically formulated for a bigger protein hit, often with less sugar, making them a better choice for a post-workout snack or a more substantial breakfast base. The protein here is more of a bonus than the main event. It offers more satiety than a standard sugary snack, but if your goal is hitting a specific protein target, you'd need to look towards the higher-protein pouches or dedicated shakes in the chiller aisle.
Clean Score: 6.8/10
Three vegetable gums are the main trade-off here, added to create a consistently smooth and thick texture without separation in the pouch. With 12 ingredients in total, including added sugar and natural flavours, the product scores a 6.7/10, which is below the average for the yoghurt category. The ingredient list includes pectin, guar gum, and locust bean gum, all common stabilisers. While there are no artificial sweeteners, colours, or preservatives, the presence of added sugar and 'natural flavours' moves it away from a simple, whole-food profile. Chobani's plain Greek yoghurt pouches offer a much cleaner profile, often with just milk and live cultures. This pouch is built for convenience and consistent flavour, which comes at the cost of a longer ingredient list for those who read the label closely.

Frequently asked questions
- Is the sugar in this yoghurt added or natural?
- This yoghurt contains both naturally occurring sugar (lactose) from milk and added sugar. At 9.9g of sugar per 100g, it's significantly sweeter than plain Greek yoghurt. The ingredient list confirms 'Sugar' as the second ingredient, placing it in the dessert-style or sweet snack category. We'd suggest Chobani's 'No Sugar Added' range if you're looking to minimise your sugar intake.
- How does this compare to other Chobani yoghurts for protein?
- This pouch sits at the lower end of Chobani's protein offerings. Its 7.6g of protein per 100g is outpaced by the brand's 'Fit' and '20G Protein' pouches, which deliver over 10g of protein per 100g. While it offers more protein than a standard, non-strained yoghurt, it's not designed as a high-performance product. For a bigger protein hit, we'd recommend looking at the dedicated high-protein options in their range.
- Is this thick enough to be a dessert replacement?
- Yes, its texture and sweetness make it a solid dessert replacement. The Greek-style base and added vegetable gums give it a thick, creamy consistency that's satisfying to eat. With 13.9g of sugar in the pouch, it delivers the sweetness many people look for in a dessert, but with the added benefit of 10.7g of protein. We'd grab it as a smarter swap for ice cream or a sugary pudding.
- Does this yoghurt have live cultures?
- Yes, it does. The ingredient list confirms the presence of 'Live Cultures (Milk)', which are essential for turning milk into yoghurt. The specific strains of bacteria are not named on the packaging, which is common for many mainstream yoghurts. If you are seeking specific probiotic strains like L. acidophilus or B. lactis, you would need to look for products that name them on the label.
- Where can I buy this Chobani yoghurt pouch?
- This product is widely available in the chiller aisle of major Australian supermarkets. It is currently catalogued at both Coles and Woolworths. Availability can vary by store location, but you'll typically find it alongside other single-serve yoghurt pouches. The brand may also sell products directly from their own website.
