Fudge Brownie!!!



*8.5 out of 10

- Double Cookies and Cream yogurt
- Brownie bites
- Oreos
- Chopped peanuts
- Ghirardelli chocolate syrup



Mmmhmmh! Wow! This combination left me speechless at first bite because it was surprisingly really good! I've tried the brownie bites in other yogurts and their taste always disappointed me. But in this combination they were heavenly! Mostly because of the Ghirardelli chocolate syrup, which as I've stated before that it's usually so overwhelming of a flavor that you are not able to taste anything else. However, the syrup actually enhanced the chocolate flavor of the brownie bites. The composition of the yogurt had a nice chewy texture to it. Peanuts went very well this combination and I would even recommend using walnuts as a substitute. Although, putting too many walnuts could make it too crunchy and their flavor can be a risky change to this already amazing combination. As cliche as it sounds the walnuts are a risk that I would be willing to take with this mix. The yogurt itself has a milk chocolate flavor to it so the stronger taste of the syrup compliment each other very well so that the mix does not have too strong of a chocolate flavor. I actually tried this combo twice with the exact same amount of toppings and what I found out is that this compilation of toppings are kinda perfect. It sounds contradictory but what I mean about being kinda perfect is that their is an imperfection with the Oreos because of the big cookie pieces. The Oreo chips are actually too crunchy so what I figured out on the second time I made it was to only add oreo crumbs and not to add the bigger pieces of the cookies. For you CHOCOLATE LOVERS, this is a MUST TRY! Bon appetit!

Yogurt SUICIDE #1



*1 out of 10 

Ingredients: (It is probably better that you didn't know)
- Double Cookies n' Cream yogurt
- Vanilla Wafer yogurt
- New York Cheesecake yogurt
- Peanut Butter yogurt
- Chocolate Twilight yogurt
- Brownie bites
- Cheesecake bites
- Cookie dough bites
- Dewars pieces
- Frosted animal cookies

Well, this just goes to show you that we aren't afraid to go the distance when experimenting with yogurt. I was feeling nostalgic trying this flavor of yogurt.  How many of you remember that time as a kid when you filled up your cup with ten different flavors of soda and called it a "suicide?" This is really no different except unfortunately, it tastes horrible.  I mean the only thing that I could actually distinguish within the yogurt was the frosted animal bites and that was probably because of the texture.  The truth is, that I was in utter confusion.  I didn't really know what to make of it other than the fact that it was SWEET.  There was just too much going on.  This particular flavor I probably won't ever get again but that doesn't mean there won't be another "suicide" flavor that we write about.  I am fairly confident that there will be a "suicide," which tastes surprisingly good in light of its intimidating ingredients.

* I am defining "suicide" as a limited conglomerate of yogurts and toppings.  It is not being used as the traditional usage: combining all flavors (in this case both toppings and yogurt) exhaustively.
