I hate fruit-cup-yogurt. It's pretty much jelly with yogurt and sickeningly sweet. I don't know how yogurt morphed into all this crap on the market; pre-prepared yogurt drinks, sweetened yogurt,fruit-jam-yogurt, I can barely stomach half of it. And that's even before I get to the texture. It has become this runny glop in a cup. It's like a black hole to the two of you in a grocery store. The closer you get, the harder it is to pull you away from the cartoon character sugared yogurt drinks, and as I pull you away with your arms outstretched, claims of 'but I like it' frustrate me to no end. There are some slightly sweetened brands that are not too bad, but I stress that those are dessert like snacks, resembling nothing of what a real yogurt should be. They use yogurt as an ingredient, while real yogurt is so incredibly versatile that it only makes sense to stock the real deal in your fridge.
