Frozen Yogurt

I didn't know anyone else in Bristow read this board, LOL. I will have to be more careful about revealing details about myself. But, re the yogurt, I totally disagree. We have Zinga, Sweet Frog, and Orange Leaf in this area, and I find Sweet Frog to be by far the best of the three, both in terms of the taste of the yogurt and the toppings available. I was so disappointed when I went to Orange Leaf. Their original tart flavor tastes strange. I will say that their dairy free pineapple was excellent, though (for my dairy allergic child).

But nothing will ever compare to Pinkberry. I had it when I went to NYC in 2008 and no other frozen yogurt has ever come close to that deliciousness. That was back when they only had three flavors and it was understood that the original tart was the default. All these other flavors that make it just like 90s frozen yogurt defeats the purpose of it for me. I only ever get the original tart -- nothing else appeals. I actually went to an Orange Leaf in Kentucky last summer and they didn't even have original tart! I was aghast.

Good to see another Bristow person here! Now Iwonder if I know you! I'm in Victory Lakes. Orange Leaf is the closest to me, so it's the most convenient. Also, their cotton candy flavor is delicious. The sweet frog---it reminds me a lot of Sanrio/Hello Kitty type of characters and just kind of bugs me.
