There are also plenty of other products out their for you to try. There is bound to be one that clicks with your personal tastes. And if you can't find one at your regular grocery store, try a couple of other chains to get more options.Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-66377451746862128182023-02-01T22:21:57.369-05:002023-02-01T22:21:57.369-05:00I can't believe you gave these products a bad ...I can't believe you gave these products a bad review. Here it is 11 years later and I'd give anything for B&J to bring these back. The Blueberry Vanilla Graham and Banana Peanut Butter were amazing, particular for for MUCH lower fat and calorie counts. You simply can NOT get creamier, low-fat ice cream or froyo on the market (and haven't been able to since these flavors were so devestatingly taken from us. And as far as the tartness, you are so wrong. I hate tart froyo, I loathe red mango for their tartness and despise the pinkberry tart flavors that make up half of their menu. These were NOTHING like...I can't believe how horribly these were marketed to the public during their short run. Had they been given a reaonable chance to succeed, I have no doubt these would have flourished over time as more and more people tried them and discovered their massive health advantages over B&J's regular ice cream products. Across the board their Greek FroYo were substantially lower in calories, fat, saturated fat and calories. Unfortunately, I'm still waiting for something else to come along to replace this once amazing product.<br /><br /><b>.............................Tot Fat.....Sat Fat.......Sugar........Calories</b> <br /> <br />Greek, Banana PB Fro-Yo.........8g........2.5g..........26g..........210 kcal <br /> <br />Greek, Blue-Van Graham Fro-Yo...8g........3.5g..........19g..........200 kcal <br /> <br />Chubby Hubby Ice Cream.........21g.......11.0g..........26g..........340 kcal <br /> <br /><i>*compare to blueberry fro-yo.....+163%.......+227%........+37%..........+70% higher</i>Rich Boycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12539522806127100684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-33958715917288476402013-01-15T14:01:19.985-05:002013-01-15T14:01:19.985-05:00I really enjoyed the Banana peanut butter, but thi...I really enjoyed the Banana peanut butter, but this raspberry one has a distinct chalk-like taste.

Fi...OMG Dubba you need to start liking banana ASAP! First off, I don't even like yogurt, Greek or otherwise. But I do like bananas and peanut butter swirls so I figured I'd give this one a shot. The first thing I noticed is how soft the ice cream is, mainly because it's a froyo. The base tastes like pureed banana, clean and mild. The swirl itself also wasn't too sweet, like a healthy peanut butter. Together it was addicting, and once again more than half the container went down too easy. I'd definatly buy this again, 9/10 for sure!Daniellenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-82809953131198505582012-03-03T18:21:40.261-05:002012-03-03T18:21:40.261-05:00I found the Banana Peanut Butter froyo at Shop Rit...I found the Banana Peanut Butter froyo at Shop Rite today.

I suspect that might have something to do with the taste, although I can't say for sure as I don't ever buy any of the flavored varieties.<br /><br />Peanut Butter Banana is the only one that has my interest somewhat. It's the closest thing I've got to them bringing back Monkey Wrench (Chunky Monkey and PB Cup swirled together), so I will probably give that one a shot. As for the others, I will probably stick to the standard Froyo.Crucifistnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-76848067049727807852012-02-22T22:36:14.513-05:002012-02-22T22:36:14.513-05:00their froyos have always had crazy calories, thoug...their froyos have always had crazy calories, though I too expected a bit more moderation (their banana froyo is almost identical except a bit less saturated fat)Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-24494959364620522182012-02-22T22:32:55.988-05:002012-02-22T22:32:55.988-05:00I plan on sticking to ice cream and non-yogurty fr...I plan on sticking to ice cream and non-yogurty frozen yogurt :)Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-80775141037728401122012-02-22T21:48:12.862-05:002012-02-22T21:48:12.862-05:00Last week just built up the suspense for us; so do...Last week just built up the suspense for us; so don't even worry about it! <br /><br />I would have expected this to be a little tastier with that amount of calories; fat and sugar.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-18455465724971701882012-02-22T18:57:22.381-05:002012-02-22T18:57:22.381-05:00I'm glad that they left the tartness of yogurt...I'm glad that they left the tartness of yogurt in.
