Too Good Blended is marketed as a low-fat, low-sugar yogurt; it contains 2 grams of each. A container costs $1.99, an average for single-portion yogurts.

It has 12 grams of protein, equivalent to two eggs.

Upon opening the cup, it smelled tart, and I could see vanilla bean powder in the yogurt, suggesting the flavoring was on the more natural side.

However, I thought the taste seemed artificial. The texture was a bit runny, even though the yogurt had some separated whey that needed to be mixed in. Even though it was a bit liquid, this yogurt felt dry and had a grainy texture.

To me, it tasted like chalk.

Also from the Too Good brand, Too Good Zero Sugar offers a similar yogurt, minus the 2 grams of sugar in the Too Good Blended.

With 5.4 calories per gram of protein, this yogurt is the best of the 11 I tried for people looking to increase their protein intake while staying low on calories.

Despite its favorable nutrient values, Too Good Blended was nowhere near my favorite in this ranking.

Compared to some of the other yogurts, it was tartier, runnier, and more artificial-tasting. Although I didn't love the taste, it was still better than Too Good Blended's.

My go-to before this experiment was Chobani Greek Yogurt, a staple nonfat Greek yogurt. While I enjoy this regularly, after comparing it to so many options, I was surprised to see it rank so low in my ranking.

The yogurt has one of the highest sugar contents in the experiment, at 9 grams per container, tied with Icelandic Provisions and Siggi's. It is also the least protein-efficient for those looking to stay low on calories while increasing protein intake. It has over 9 calories per gram of protein, which is higher than any other protein in this ranking.

This tastes like Greek yogurt, big time. Intensely tartier than the rest, the combination of Chobani's Greek yogurt with its very mild vanilla flavoring almost tasted like spoiled milk to me.

It was also very runny, which I don't always look for when grabbing a yogurt for a stand-alone snack — as a granola bowl base, however, I do prefer to go for something a bit more liquidy. Of course, this comes down to personal preference.

While it used to be my go-to option, I think I'd rather go for some of the other options I tasted.

Yoplait's Protein yogurt offering was the most surprising to me, nutrients-wise. Being the cheapest of all 11 I tried, the yogurt packs a solid 15 grams of protein while having 3 grams of sugar.

It's also a larger size, at 5.6 ounces per container, so in terms of volume, you get the most bang for your buck.

I was skeptical about how Yoplait's Protein yogurt would stack up — I typically consider it a traditional yogurt brand rather than a protein-focused snack. But I was pleasantly surprised.

When I opened the cup, I was instantly hit by a strong vanilla scent that reminded me of ice cream.

While the texture was both thick and airy, it was also a bit grainy, and I thought the yogurt tasted a little artificial and bland compared to some of the other brands.

So while I probably wouldn't seek it out over others on this list, it's still a good snack option.

Oikos' Triple Zero name tells you everything you need to know: The snack has zero sugar, zero artificial sweeteners, and zero fat.

It's the only one on this list with both zero sugar and zero fat.

It is also one of the more protein-efficient options at 6 calories per gram of protein.

Oikos Triple Zero had one of the most unique flavors of the yogurts on this list. When I opened it, I was immediately hit by a slightly funkier smell than some of the other yogurts.

After mixing the yogurt, which had separated a bit, the Oikos Triple Zero had a very rich and full texture. Its vanilla flavoring tasted different than some of the others on this list — it almost seemed smokier.

While I rated it the same as the Yoplait Protein, its nutrient values gave it a boost for me, hence why it's ranked higher.

Another of my usual go-tos, Siggi's nonfat Skyr — a type of strained yogurt — had some of the highest sugar content on the list, tied with Chobani Greek Yogurt and Icelandic Provisions.

The yogurt is also on the more expensive side at $2.39 for a regular 5.3-ounce container.

Flavored with a visible vanilla bean, Siggi's Skyr had the best vanilla flavor of all the yogurts I tested. While it was very tart and not sweet at all — which surprised me since it had 9 grams of sugar — the vanilla flavor still shone through.

In terms of texture, Siggi's reminded me a lot of ice cream, both in appearance and in feel.

I'll buy this again, but out of the 11, it didn't make my top five.

Dannon's Light + Fit yogurt was my favorite discovery from this experiment. Having never heard of it before, I was impressed by this nonfat yogurt, which packs 12 grams of protein in 80 calories.

While it does have 7 grams of sugar, I found that the flavor in this yogurt justified it.

Dannon's Light + Fit's texture was one of the most memorable. As the name says, this yogurt is indeed light. It was much airier than all the others, which also made it a bit runny.

It was also very sweet, almost falling into the category of dessert-adjacent yogurts that I would put Ratio's in.

Oikos' higher-protein yogurt offering, Oikos Pro, is a much more protein-dense offering, having 20 grams of protein in a 5.3-ounce container, or a little more than three eggs. The yogurt also has 0% fat and 3 grams of sugar.

It is also, however, one of the most expensive, at $2.79 for a regular 5.3-ounce cup. It's tied with Ratio for the most expensive in this ranking, being a full dollar more than some of the other options.

When you open a cup of Oikos Pro, you smell mild vanilla, which translates into a very tasty yogurt with a flavor that stays on your tongue longer than others.

The texture was also very rich and moist, while not being runny.

This texture also made it the most filling of the yogurts I tested, and it would make for the perfect post-workout snack.

While not labeled as a high-protein yogurt, Icelandic Provisions' Skyr has 15 grams of protein, placing it in the medium-high tier among yogurts.

It's tied with Chobani and Siggi's for the highest sugar content, with all three at 9 grams.

Icelandic Provisions is a skyr yogurt like Siggi's. It is similar in taste and texture, but I found it a bit sweeter and less tart, with a nuttier flavor, which I really enjoyed.

This rich, full-flavored yogurt was one of my favorites out of the 11.

With a whopping 25 grams of protein — nearly as much as half a chicken breast — Ratio Protein had by far the most protein content of all the products I tested. It was also the most expensive, tied with Oikos Pro at $2.79 a cup.

The product, labeled as a "yogurt-cultured dairy snack" rather than yogurt due to the added vegetable-based fats in its recipe, is also the most calorie-dense, with 170 calories per cup.

While the Ratio recipe does not meet the FDA's definition of yogurt, its fermented nature, dairy components, and use of yogurt cultures earned it a spot on my list.

Ratio Protein differs from the others in this list. Its taste is much milder, and it lacks the signature tartness of Greek yogurt.

The texture was also quite unique — I could best describe it as gooey. It's runnier and smoother than the rest, and its taste stays on your tongue for much longer.

To me, this just felt like dessert, and I easily forgot that I was having a meal's worth of protein.

While I gave this and the Icelandic Provisions a 9/10, the protein content and unique flavor and texture made me rank Ratio higher.

Coming in at No. 1 is Chobani Protein, which has 20 grams of protein in a larger 6.7-ounce cup. While it's larger, its calorie content is in line with other yogurts in this ranking, like Oikos Pro, which has the same amount of protein. Like Oikos, Chobani Protein has about the same protein content as a 3-ounce can of tuna.

While the individual cup is pricier per unit, the larger size makes it cheaper per ounce, comparable to Dannon's Light + Fit.

Chobani Protein is one of three zero-sugar yogurts in this ranking, the others being Oikos Triple Zero and Too Good 0 Sugar.

I was a fan of Chobani Protein before coming into this test — the high protein content and name recognition frequently earned it a spot in my fridge — but I entered this experiment ready to find a new favorite.

I didn't.

Although some of the other yogurts I tasted were surprising and very enjoyable, I still found Chobani Protein to be the best.

It is rich, thicker, and very filling. It has a hint of the signature Chobani Greek yogurt taste while skipping much of the tartness. I enjoyed the taste it left in my mouth the most out of all of the yogurts.

The only downside to this favorite is its slightly artificial taste from the zero-sugar sweeteners used to keep its sugar content low, but if you can move past that, you'll have an amazing post-workout bite or on-the-go snack at your disposal.
