Calories in 100% mayple syrup

I really like putting a tablespoon of 100% maple syrup in non fat plain Greek yogurt for breakfast. On the syrup bottle it say one serving is 210 calories for 1/4 cup, when I translate this to a tablespoon and put it in my food log it says only 15 calories. Is this correct? In your opinion is real maple syrup a good sweetener for Greek yogurt? I think it tastes AMAZING but not sure about it calorie or health wise.

There are 4 tablespoons to a 1/4 cup. If a 1/4 cup = 200 calories then 1 tablespoon is 50 calories.

There are 4 Tbsp in 1/4 cup so the calorie count should be 50. 15 calories would be about right for a teaspoon. The MFP calculator isn't always right. I scanned in a turkey sausage patty the other day and the site gave me 90 calories while the package says 120.
