Chocolate Twilight Crunch



*5 out of 10

Ingredients:
- Chocolate Twilight yogurt
- Cinnamon Toast crunch
- M&M's
- Oreos (crushed)
- Chopped roasted almonds

This was not as sweet as I imagined, probably because the yogurt is an NSA yogurt (no sugar added). However, it was overwhelmingly crunchy.  Just look at the picture above and you can imagine what a mouthful of this combination would taste like.  If you give this yogurt a try, I would recommend crushing all the ingredients instead of eating it on top of the yogurt that way, you are not just eating a big bite of dry toppings.  Also, try getting this without the M&M's, they don't compliment the yogurt. When M&Ms get cold, they get hard and this causes a conflict between the two variations of chocolate and their textures.

Taro with Butterfinger Pieces and More!





* 8 out of 10

Ingredients:
- Taro yogurt
- Butterfinger pieces
- Mochi balls
- Chopped roasted almonds

I am not really a fan of taro, so being an 8 out of 10, sure says a lot about this combination. The textures  within this yogurt is similar to the other high quality flavors.  The chewiness of the mochi, mixed with the crunchiness of the almonds, goes extremely well with the smoothness of the taro.  Not to mention, the taro yogurt itself isn't too sweet so the butterfinger pieces is a good choice because it adds a bit of extra flavor that doesn't push the yogurt over the top. However, if you don't like the additional buttery flavor from the butterfinger pieces feel free to remove it.  That way the taro flavor will be more dominant.
