Frozen Yogurt

I grew up in the period of regular milky ice cream,
probably those ice cream was part of the contribution to my weight now (hehehe, blame it to the ice cream)
Some lists of my favorite ice creams during those days maybe include:
Baskin Robin, Haagen Daaz, Ben & Jerry, and for local brands the most favorite ones are Walls and Campina.

Not too long ago, maybe 1 or 2 years back,
we are started to be introduced with so called: Frozen Yogurt,
which actually had been there but only had little shares of its lovers.

The thought of frozen yogurt at the first time was not very friendly-accepted for me,
i can quickly mention SOUR as the word equivalent to it, which i happen not to like soury taste.

Along with time, more and more new brand names are being popularize in the frozen yogurt business, even started to partly cover up the regular milky ice cream. Frozen Yogurt obviously came in the right time now a days, since people are started to shift their eating habit to more healthy food.

Even though i am still basically ice cream lover, the existence of frozen yogurt starts to tease me and appealing in several ways.

More brand names such as the most well-known Sour Sally, Red Mango, and some locals one like Heavenly Blush, etc. especially since the frozen yogurt itself showed up in attractive and appealing form. The idea of able to combine some of my own favorite topping, becomes one of the attractive selling point too.

So there it is, Frozen Yogurt which now becomes One of my Must-Eat-Item whenever i go to the mall, Fro-Yo exists and becomes one good alternatives for people who likes to enjoy ice creams but don't want the extra fat that goes with it, and it certainly taste good too.






I once attended a wedding party, where I found one frozen yoghurt stall in replacement of the usual home-made ice cream stall. It's completed with the yoghurt dispenser and various of topping choices. And the queue .. man, it's a very long queue. Everybody wanted to get a cup.

When one franchise opened its first outlet, it became the talk of the town instantly. They'd tell it your face you hadn't lived if you didn't give it a try. Even for those who're never interested in fermented-milk before. No matter how overrated and overpriced it was. People looked really cool eating big-sized cup of yoghurt with mountain of toppings.

But now you could see it's not that popular anymore. Outlets are getting quiet. They're starting to launch promotions here and there. Still quiet. People do get bored. And it goes back to the basic of consumerism. Price. Value for money. Should people take yoghurt for health, and you know that health is not cheap, there would still be a long queue at these outlets. But that's not what happens around here recently.

Frozen yoghurt is not a case of healthy eating habit. It's simply a case of trend. I, no matter how much I love yoghurt, I'd take ice-creams better anytime. @)-->-----
