So today I tried Yoplait's new coffee-flavored yogurt.
I picked it up at the grocery store last weekend on a whim, and just finished eating it.
Hm.
On the one hand, it's intriguing. I like coffee-flavored things (ice cream, and... OK, maybe just ice cream). I like flavored coffee. Their yogurts tend to taste like what they're intended to taste like.
The first bite was...odd. It's very strong-tasting. And it tastes a little bit like coffee with a lot of artificial sweetener (which it probably does have) and possibly some liquor (not entirely a bad thing).
I'm pretty sure that, upon taking the first bite, my face resembled a tiny child trying a new food for the first time (La-la-la-Lila eating bananas comes to mind): "OMG what is this it might be gross do I like it I think I might like it but I think I'll spit it out anyway."
And then: the aftertaste. It is wicked. And not the good, Boston-accented type of wicked. More like the never-going-to-leave-my-mouth-so-I'll-probably-be-eating-coffee-flavored-turkey-tomorrow kind of wicked.
Has anyone else tried this? I'm on the fence. It wasn't bad, but I'm thinking I will pass over this and just grab more Harvest Peach from now on.
(I did see, while looking for the image above, that boingboing.com beat me to the punch on this one. And they boiled their review down to one word: Horrid. Ha.)
3 backtalk:
Sounds yucky to me...I'd stick with the peach I would!
I'm not a big yogurt person.... especially flavored yogurt.
We did just try oiko greek yogurt with honey in it for the first time and it's awesome!
I'll pass on the coffee flavor.... ick.
Ew. The idea of coffee-flavored anything grosses me out, as I'm not a coffee drinker.
However, the idea of coffee yogurt makes me nearly want to vomit.
Ew. No ok.
