Like, the strawberry yogurt shows 6.5 cubes of sugar. But how much of that is due to added sugar (e.g. high fructose corn syrup), and how much of that (if any) is due to the natural sugars found in the milk product and in the bits of fruit?
Based on the information they give about their calculations on the front page they're calculating it based on the amount of sugar listed in the nutrition information (subheading under Carbohydrate), so no, that's not just added sugar, and they don't differentiate between the kinds of sugar.
