With a pleasing taste and texture that seems every bit as good as the most decadent chocolate fudge brownie-flavored ice cream, the biggest additional benefit is its nutritional value. Each two-thirds cup serving of Yasso Fudge Brownie frozen yogurt amounts to 150 calories. Additionally, a single serving contains 7 grams of protein, 290 mg of potassium, and 130 mg of calcium. The frozen sweet is made with nonfat milk and nonfat Greek yogurt as well as plenty of cocoa.
Always ahead of the curve and nostalgic as a hobby, New Yorkers are leaning into a dominant food trend from when the subway fare was $2.25, Occupy Wall Street camped out at Zuccotti Park, New York Fashion Week had recently relocated to Lincoln Center, and yes, there was a fro-yo shop on every corner. Now, frozen yogurt has become part of the zeitgeist once again.
Kroger is one of the major grocery chains in America, with a vast selection of products from name and private label brands. Kroger's private label brands are booming because they offer quality products for a much lower price than name-brand competitors. Unfortunately, Kroger's private label brand, Simple Truth, fails to deliver in the yogurt department. In a taste test of 10 frozen yogurt brands, the Simple Truth raspberry cheesecake Greek frozen yogurt bars were one of our least favorites.
Frozen yogurt is a popular dessert choice due to its lightness and lower calorie count compared to ice cream, but its probiotic preservation depends on processing techniques.
