11/25/09 - Yogurt could be a category unto itself of things I don't like. It can be liquified, regular or frozen and I'm afraid of it. I've tried it on multiple occasions and every time it is the same. It's a sticky, mushy, paste sort of thing that I just can't seem to get off my tongue. Yogurt just sits there with it's gross texture like it knows what happens to it after it gets swallowed. The latest flavour I tried was strawberry banana and it was like whipped medicine. I had less than a spoonful and had to quickly find something to wash the taste (and memory) of it out of my mouth; I'm pretty sure it was carbonated.There is one form of yogurt I am no longer scared witless of: frozen. Now, I'm not saying I like it, but if someone served it to me without telling me it was yogurt I probably wouldn't realize it unitl the second or third bite and would continue to eat it anyways without saying anything. I feel that frozen yogurt tries to hard to be ice cream though, so much so that it somehow tastes creamier than ice cream, which is weird. Also, it tastes like chemicals much more often that ice cream does.
I don't mind things made with yogurt, like butter chicken sauce or naan bread, but straight-up yogurt is a no, except for authentic Grecian yogurt when I'm on vacation since Kristin says it's very different.
VERDICT: yogurt = gross, frozen yogurt = polite
