Coffee THROWUP


*1.5 out of 10

Ingredients:
- Coffee yogurt
- chopped peanuts
- graham cracker
- Reese's peanut butter cups

I might be a little biased here, but this was probably the worst yogurt I've had, by far, second only to the Yogurt Suicide posted a week ago. Though I love, love, love coffee (especially black), I personally don't like "coffee" flavored things (coffee yogurt, coffee ice cream, coffee flavored cake); it just doesn't taste like coffee. But putting that aside, the pairings of the yogurt and toppings just didn't work. Coffee yogurt on it's own, might be okay (that is, if you like the flavor of "coffee"), but with these toppings, I would dare to say it tasted like throw-up, just slightly sweeter. The flavor of the coffee, graham crackers, peanuts, and Reese's just clashed and ended up tasting... really bad. In addition to that, the crunchiness of the peanuts and hardened Reese's just made it worse. I'm sure there's some topping combination that works well with coffee, but until we find it... be wary of the coffee.

Coconut Frenzy



*8 out of 10

Ingredients:
- Toasted coconut yogurt
- Coconut flakes
- Sliced almond
- Graham cracker (crushed/ground)


Maybe a title of "Coconut Lover's Dream" would be better suiting. Believe me when I say this is the ultimate coconut lover's dream... this yogurt is bursting with coconut flavor. But that's not to say it's only for those of you who like coconut. Mike, who doesn't particularly like coconut went koo-koo for coconuts. All the elements blend together very well and will have your taste-buds begging for more. Coconut on coconut is great. The ground graham crackers (make sure to put a lot in your cup, you won't be disappointed) compliment the yogurt almost better than the coconut on coconut combo—it's that good. Add some sliced almonds for texture, stir it all together and be prepared for a mouthful of coconut goodness. This is by far my favorite non-tart yogurt combination.

Try it. Please. I beg you. It is good.

(The reason I didn't give this a higher rating is because it is pretty sweet and I don't see myself getting this every time. But every now and then, I will most definitely indulge myself in this sweet, delicious extravagance.)
