So my entire readership of 4 or 5 has been alienated due to my incessant econ speak. So, at least for this post, I will not mention it (except in mentioning it's being incessant.) Instead of that topic which shall not be named, I will spend my time posting about yogurt
I love Yogurt World. Back in LA, maybe half a year or more ago, some lady started a craze called Pinkberry. Simple idea, charge a good amount of money for yogurt and fresh toppings. But, the catch is that it's not your run-o'-the-mill yogurt, but something else. If you're truly asian, let me just say it taste like yakult. If you don't know what I mean, you're not really too asian. But, anyways, this shit is bomb. So a mountain of special yogurt with fresh fruit/cereal toppings.
Fast forward to Kearny Mesa, in little SE asia, convoy street. There is a place called Yogurt World, which I just mentioned, I LOVE. It has the flavors of Pinkberry (and then some, and by some, I mean like 6 times as many) and the toppings of Pinkberry (and then some, and similarly, a factor of 6). The greatest part though?
YOU BUILD YOUR OWN YOGURT!!!
Sure, it'll cost you a pretty penny if you just happen to go nuts and get everything your heart desires, but once you get a hang of it, it's quite affordable. I am about to go, if Lindsey ever calls me. I'm almost about to just up and leave cuz I'm craving it bad.
So, my favorite combinations:
Plain Tart yogurt with strawberries, mangos, kiwi, fruity pebbles and mochi
Cookie and Cream/Vanilla Custard with Graham Cracker crumbs, strawberries, blueberries and mochi
Combinations I want to try:
Cheesecake yogurt w/ graham crackers, strawberries and blueberries
peanut butter w/ nuts and more nuts
If you ever want to get some Yogurt world, lemme know. I'm always down for Yogurt World. FYI, if you're scared of mobs of asian people, it would be a bad idea for you to hit up Yogurt World.

We should go. Tonight. That would be awesome.
Here's the recipe I was talking about. It looks really good, but unfortunately I lack an ice cream maker thingy. Sadness :(
sweet. at home in LA, we've got an ice cream maker, so i'll try it out there.
Note avid responses for Yogurt compared to Econspeak. haha ;)
Did you hear that some lady is sueing Pinkberry? Based on The Department of Agriculture, Pinkberry does not process their yogurt based on their standards, and cannot be recognized legally as yogurt. The lady claims she is not sueing for the money, rather she wants Pinkberry to be honest w/ it's customers. This lady is either full of bullshit (most likely), or she's one big-ass stickler (also as likely).
Makes you wonder how Pinkberry will classify it as. Perhaps yocream? creamurt?
i have one thing to rebut your statement re: econspeak v. yogurt. fuck off!
but, yocream and more importantly creamert is disgusting.
I would call it faux-gurt.
lol "fauxgurt" is even better! It's catchy to the point of gimmickhood!
