Ode To Fro Yo (Or At Least The Toppings)

Two words for you: frozen yogurt.

One nickname: fro yo.

Tap, tap, tap. Is this thing on? Good.

Listen up: fro yo is life changing.

To paraphrase George Michael circa 1987: Fro yo's natural. Fro yo's good. Not everybody does it, but everybody should. And if it's good enough for George, it's good enough for me.

Fro yo delights the taste buds with it's yummy-ness. It delights the brain by thinking about all the flavor and topping combos one can make. It delights that part of my psyche that deludes itself into thinking it's eating healthy ice cream.

In short, fro yo is fabulous.

And photo worthy. Behold.

I have sampled several flavors and I haven't come across a nasty one yet.

Oh wait. I take that back.

The flavored named 'original' was nasty. Nasty with a side of gross. Avoid original. Don't fear the other flavors because they are delightful in every way.

Word to the wise: there is one downside to fro yo. It's sold by the ounce. Sure you can fill your cup to the tippy top with that creamy frozen goodness and put on as many toppings as your heart desires, but at the end of the line there is the fro yo equivalent of the Day of Reckoning: a scale which weighs your cup.

And we all know what a snarky ol' she-devil a scale can be.

Wednesday night Tata, Banana and myself partook of a little after dinner fro yo. You know, if you can call chips and guacamole 'dinner'. T and I are big fans, but Banana wasn't fully on board because (get this) she doesn't like ice cream or ice cream like substances.

I know, right? How in the world can a bowl-of-ice-cream-every-night-of-the-year kind of gal like me be friends with someone who doesn't like ice cream? It's a mystery to me, too.

Fro yo is a giant step out there for Banana. To be honest, she only agreed to go with us after I told her she could skip the fro yo and just get a bowl full of toppings.

Banana's bowl of toppings is on the left, T's is the mess of chocolatey goodness in the middle, and mine is the bowl of fro yo on the right that is trying really, really hard to be viewed as 'healthy'.

All of us the fro yo place very pleased with our purchases, thus proving fro yo (or at least the toppings) = happiness. Pin It Now!
