A frozen dessert for me
For decades, the only frozen yogurt available in Manila was Better Than Ice Cream (BTIC), which is made of yogurt but has the flavor and consistency of ice cream. I've nothing against that, but I happen to like the tartness of yogurt. Nestlé came out with frozen yogurt about a decade ago, but I guess the market here wasn't ready for it yet because it didn't last long. So I've been waiting for years, and now suddenly, it's all over the place. I, for one, am not complaining. Yogurbud is just one of many frozen yogurt stalls that have sprouted in malls throughout Metro Manila this year. My husband orders it with fruit (this has strawberry and mango cubes) and I like it plain. I really, really hope that this isn't just a passing fad.
je te souhaite un bon appétit ;o))
ReplyDeleteWe buy Dannon yogurt most of the time and like it very much. They came out with whipped or foamy yogurt which means it is mostly filled with air and a yogurt taste. I don't like it. I prefer the real yogurt with fruit. Something like what you have shown on your blog today.
ReplyDeleteIt looks yummy!
ReplyDeleteLooks yummy.....
ReplyDeletewow delicious indeed!

Looks delicious, especially with the fruit on top! I'm on the lookout for soy yoghurt these days since discovering I'm intolerant to dairy products...:-(
ReplyDeleteI would order mine with fruit too, just like your husband. I usually just buy regular vanilla flavor yogurt and add frozen fruit to it at home. I think blueberries are my favorite, but I like the mixed fruit too.
ReplyDeleteIt looks good. I guess it was a passing fad for me. My wife and I used to get it all the time about 10 or 15 yrs ago, but it's been a long while since or last time.
ReplyDeleteI'm eating really good Greek yogurt called Oare total it comes w/honey or fruit puree on the side. Yum yum! The problem is I can never go back to Yoplait or Dannon and it costs 3 or 4x as much.
It looks fantastic and it should be healthy too! :)

Do you have any idea how much hunger you have aroused today with this photo?
ReplyDeleteYum, yum.
I'd write more, but I have to see what's in the refrigerator!
Hi Hilda,
ReplyDeleteWe take fresh milk from farmer and my wife boiled on it and add yeast for fwrmantation, after one night our yoğurt is ready that is real one.
Bye.
It looks like ice cream with fruit on top... I'm hungry now and it's midnight here!
ReplyDeleteboy do I need that
ReplyDeleteI love yogurt too with nuts and fruit and honey : )
ReplyDeleteOh Yes, we are huge huge yogurt fans! So much so, that I have no clue what ice cream tastes like anymore. Your husband's choice would be mine, your choice would be my husbands, lol. Good for you!!
ReplyDeleteThe mango has to be a Manila vanilla thang. Around here it would never be mango, pineapple, maybe. I hope you get all the frozen yogurt your hear desires, Hilda. Happy bloggers are, well, happy!
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious.
ReplyDeleteI like mango.
whoa! this made my heart beat faster. i should get one.
ReplyDeletethis looks yum... India is yet to get yogurt. We have Indian versions of curd made sweets like Srikhand which are a good alternative to ice creams.
ReplyDeleteBut this looks delicious will see if i can get something similar here in Delhi.
