| - Our first visit to Cherry on Top, and it was good. It did not dethrone Yogurtland as my #1 favorite, but I liked it a smidgen better than Menchies.
I had Oatmeal Cookie, Caramel, Chocolate, and Cappuccino and, as usual, skipped the toppings. I tasted all of them first, so I knew I'd like them.
This stuff is thicker than all the other brands. That doesn't make it taste better or worse, it just made me take, pay for, and ultimately consume more than I wanted. And that's not good, especially the eating part. There is no way to get "just a dab," not even in the little tasting cups, which blob up and over just as soon as the froyo hits the cup. I don't think it's an accident. One of our group picked up the packet that has all the nutritional information, and we were surprised at how high the calorie and sugar count is. I also wasn't happy to learn that high fructose corn syrup figures prominently in the ingredients for all the flavors. But I won't take away stars until I get to compare the competitors' info.
We came here after yet another blah dinner at Outside Inn, which has U-Swirl in the same shopping center, but we wanted to give the newest contender a shot. They have great hours - open till 11 weekdays and until midnight Friday and Saturday, so we'll be back.
