Yogurt, Greek, low fat milk, plain calories: 101 per 5.3-ounce container (150 g)
This exact USDA record reports 101 calories for a 5.3-ounce container (150 g). That answer belongs to this description and weight; it is not a universal value for every meal that shares the name.

The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 101 calories for a 5.3-ounce container at 150 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 67 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 15.3 g protein, 0 g fiber, and 54 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is yogurt, greek, plain, nonfat, representing 99% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 2 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists a 5.3-ounce container at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 101–164 calories across the listed portions. That is a set of scaled examples—not a confidence interval, a recommendation, or a claim about the full universe of recipes.
Calculated from the smallest and largest usable household measures listed by USDA for this exact FNDDS record; not a confidence interval.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2705423: “Yogurt, Greek, low fat milk, plain.” It separates gram-weight arithmetic, corpus context, label signals, and record selection so one number does not have to answer four different questions.
01 · Portion arithmetic
Three weights, one fixed composition
For FDC 2705423, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 5.3 oz container” through “1 cup” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 5.3 oz containerUSDA-listed household measure | 150 g | 101 kcal | 15.3 g | 0 g | 54 mg |
| 1 6 oz containerUSDA-listed household measure | 170 g | 114 kcal | 17.3 g | 0 g | 61 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 245 g | 164 kcal | 25 g | 0 g | 88 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Yogurt, Greek
The comparison set contains 10 exact records in the Yogurt, Greek USDA category. Here, “lower quarter” describes FDC 2705423’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2705423’s 150 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Calcium; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Saturated fat. Percentages use FDA label Daily Values, whose general “high” guide begins at 20% Daily Value. This is not an overall score or a personalized target.
Strength-side signals
Calcium165 mg
≈ 13% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Tradeoff-side signals
Saturated fat1.1 g
≈ 5% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium54 mg

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Yogurt, Greek, low fat milk, plain,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2705431 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 5.3 oz container to 1 cup
USDA assigns those measures 150 g and 245 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 101 kcal to 164 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2705431
At an equal 100 g, this record has 7.2 g less carbohydrate than “Yogurt, Greek, low fat milk, fruit.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Yogurt, Greek, plain, nonfat
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Yogurt, Greek, plain, nonfat supplies 99% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
Keep this record when “Greek; low fat milk; plain” fits. Inspect FDC 2705431 when “Greek; low fat milk; fruit” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Only the comparison record lists Jams and preserves; Vitamin D as ingredient. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
3 of the six displayed differences clear the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.
Formulation evidence
The listed formulations differ
The formulation rows differ, but the source data do not isolate which component caused any nutrient difference. Input weights describe the standardized formulation—not final plated proportions.
Shared listed inputs: Yogurt, Greek, plain, nonfat; Butter oil, anhydrous.
Listed only in the comparison: Jams and preserves; Vitamin D as ingredient.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets match
This record’s reference amount is 150 g; a familiar listed measure is a 5.3-ounce container (150 g).

Uncertainty, made actionable
What can change this estimate?
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with portion size, fat level, brand or formulation, added flavors or sweeteners.
For “Yogurt, Greek, low fat milk, plain,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
portion size
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
- 02
fat level
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
- 03
brand or formulation
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
- 04
added flavors or sweeteners
Use a label or known recipe when available, because sweetness does not reveal dose. Keep syrups, sugars, and concentrated add-ins separate when the base record does not name them.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2705423 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 67 kcal per 100 g becomes 101 kcal at 150 g through nutrient per portion = nutrient per 100 g × portion grams ÷ 100; this page adds no second nutrition estimate.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” The separately listed 5.3-ounce container has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2705423
FNDDS food code: 11411410
The scaling for FDC 2705423 can be exact while the match to “Yogurt, Greek, low fat milk, plain” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 150 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
