Hung said he used yogurt instead of buttermilk for healthful eating. He apparently doesn't know his nutritional values. Buttermilk has long been a favorite of dieters:

Fat-free Buttermilk 1 cup: 160 calories, 0 grams of fat, 0 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of cholesterol.

Fat-free Yogurt 1 cup: 180 calories, 0 grams of fat, 0 grams of saturated fat, 5 grams of cholesterol.

The differences are even larger with full-fat dairy: http://blessingsforlife.com/dietnutrition/milkfatnutritionchart.htm

It's not a lot more calories or cholesterol, but if the point is more healthful food, then it matters. And it's certainly not enough to change a recipe.

On a side note, the judges need to understand that "healthy" only refers to living things, not food. "Healthful" is the adjective meaning "better for health." Use a healthy chicken to make a healthful dish.
