The vanilla lowfat yogurt tastes almost like plain yogurt but not exactly. This yogurt combines two of the four basic tastes, sweetness and sourness. First, I tasted the sweetness, but this yogurt is not as sweet as yoplait or dannon yogurts, just something you should know. The after taste is sour, not so strong, it is just perfect. And of course, the vanilla falvor is what gives it the unique taste. This is the perfect snack for me, it has no friut pieces in it, so thats something that made me enjoy it even more. This yogurt is creamy, you can combine it with granola or dried fruit. Its a good source of protein 8g per serving, which in this case would be 227g; 15 calories from fat, so is not bad at all. Fresh & easy offers a variety of different flavors; so far I have only tried this one, as soon as I try another one I’ll post a review about it!!

These 5.5oz snack/dessert cups located at the sandwich cooler at my local fresh and easy have caught my attention several times while I have been browsing! They contain either yogurt or cottage cheese, and a topping of nuts, fruit(fresh or dried), or both.

This time around I picked up Pro Yo’ Tropik which consist of,  “Low fat yogurt with dried tropic fruit, almonds and coconut. No artificial colors or flavors.”. Simple enough it seems, and sounds like it could be tasty.

When the container is first opened you can smell the coconut and dried fruit and can almost sense the yogurt! The topping is separated from the yogurt by a small round plastic tray that is supported by the cup’s conic shape

As soon as I had mixed the topping and the yogurt I made my best effort to obtain a balanced spoonful of the mix. My first spoonful provided my taste bud’s with nothing more than an uninviting blast of plain yogurt. As soon as I started to chew the mix, I was slowly greeted by all the different flavors of dried fruit, and almonds complementing each other. Each bite had a unique taste catered by the different proportions of fruit, almonds, and yogurt.

I would definitely purchase this item again. I think this is the perfect snack/dessert for any one trying to live a healthier life. It provides 3g of Fiber, 9g of Protein, 35% calcium all at roughly 200 calories. The tropical trail mix it contains, seems to consist of; Golden Raisins,  Dried Papaya, Dried Pineapple, Almonds, Dried Mango, Coconut, and Dried Apricots (on ingredient list).

Hope you guys enjoy this as much as I did. Cheers!
