Know Yo’ FroYo. Ha. Catchy, right? I’d like to take credit, but that was all Allie. I, on the other hand, came up with the ingenious idea to create a rubric. Creating rubrics comes naturally to teachers. Rubrics set the criteria to be evaluated. Rubrics establish the fairest possible playing field for an otherwise subjective assessment. Rubrics give food junkies like me an excuse to eat frozen yogurt. It used to be a guilty pleasure. Now it’s just research.Yobe, the self-serve version of the Yogaberry that closed right across from its current location in the St. Johns Town Center, is a large, clean, mod-looking shop that plays cool music. Well, I just remember they played some Florence and the Machine. Definite brownie points. When we went in, however, we weren’t greeted or offered sample cups. Yoink! (The sound of me taking my brownie points back.)
Judging the yogurt is where it gets subjective, but I’m here to offer my two cents. All of the toppings were fresh and delicious without a doubt – I’m talkin’ chewy-yet-gummy mochi (very important to me, btw), crispy cereals, and pieces of fruit that you might see in Good Housekeeping or Martha Stewart’s backyard. The yogurt had good flavor – the perfect balance between tartness and sweetness. O-M-G. Lemon fro-yo. Try it. You will die, go to heaven, and then come back just to have more. It’s lemony without being overpowering. The consistency was perfect in two of the three flavors I tried. It was firm and held up while I took breaks to complete my (awesome) rubric. The banana yogurt, though quite tasty, melted horribly.
Overall, Yobe gets a B+ from me too.
What I ate:
Yogurt – banana, lemon, taro
Toppings – coconut, mochi, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, kiwi
