| - I am not a fan of frozen yogurt. I've tried a couple of places around the city and was disappointed each time. It never tastes nearly as good as regular ice cream, so needless to say, I went to Poppy's with very low expectations. I finally went because it is located very close to my house and the nearest ice place is an additional 10 to 12 minutes away. I'm happy to report that I was pleasantly surprised. I had the cheesecake and vanilla ice cream. Both were creamy, flavorful, and tasted much closer to real ice cream that other frozen yogurt places. I also like the fact that they use fresh fruit instead of canned stuff soaked in sugary syrup. I actually really enjoyed my frozen yogurt with fresh strawberries, strawberry sauce, and graham crackers. I still like ice cream more, but I would return to Poppy's based on proximity to home, fresh fruit ingredients, closest-to-ice-cream-frozen-yogurt, and friendly staff. Also, it appears to be a small, local business. These type of places deserve local support to ensure that they succeed in these bad economic times.
