YoCrunch Low-fat Yogurt (Strawberry Banana) Review

YoCrunch Strawberry Banana Low-fat Yogurt

YoCrunch's trademark is the little container on top with some crunchies that you can add to the yogurt. Traditionally it was granola, but now there are containers with Oreos, M&Ms & even Butterfinger crumbles! But, I wanted to try a traditional variety this time, so I picked up a 6 ounce container of YoCrunch Strawberry Banana Low-fat Yogurt to try out.

NUTRITION FACTS
Serving Size: 1 container (170 grams)
Calories: 180
Total Fat: 2 grams, 3%
Saturated Fat: 1 gram, 5%
Sodium: 90 mg, 4%
Carbohydrates: 37 grams
Fiber: 1 gram, 4%
Sugars: 26 grams
Protein: 6 grams

The taste is so sweet, with a little hint of tartness, but nothing in the way of banana. There were a FEW bits of berries scattered throughout the yogurt, reppin' the strawberries, but the overall flavor was a generic SWEET yogurt. In fact, this reminded me a lot of Yoplait Original 99% Fat Free Cherry Orchard Yogurt (Review) - both are very sweet, so don't let the "low fat yogurt" spiel fool you.

Each 6 ounce container of YoCrunch Strawberry Banana Low-fat Yogurt provides 180 calories from 2 grams of fat, 1 gram of which is saturated (3% and 5% of the daily value), 1 gram of fiber (4% of the DV), 6 grams of protein and 26 grams of sugars.

The ingredients list (which can be seen at the product website) is surprisingly not very lengthy, but for those concerned, it does contain high fructose corn syrup, no artificial sugars or colors.

Although the YoCrunch Greek Non-Fat Yogurt (Peach) Review doesn't taste as good, I would prefer to have it - with almost twice the amount of protein, 1 gram more fiber and 7 grams less fat plus 6 grams less sugars - all at 10 calories less.

Breyers YoCrunch Fruit Parfait Coupons

breyersyocrunchparfait.jpg

I recently reviewed Breyers YoCrunch Blueberry Fruit Parfait. Since it was a big hit with the family (who aren't big yogurt fans), I planned to go get a few more containers, so I was pretty happy to find a coupon online.

$1.00 off when you buy any (1) YoCrunch Fruit Parfait pack by visiting the YoCrunch website.

One thing we do is make our own "apple and carrot dippers" with the yogurt - any chance to get extra fruit & veggies in - and the extra crunch from the granola in the Breyers YoCrunch Fruit Parfait makes this extra tasty - so the kids say.

Breyers YoCrunch Blueberry Fruit Parfait

Breyers YoCrunch Blueberry Fruit Parfait

I was drawn to this Breyers YoCrunch Blueberry Fruit Parfait on the supermarket shelf because of the eye catching packaging design. I like how you can see the yogurt and fruity stuff on the bottom.

NUTRITION FACTS
Serving Size: 6 ounces
Calories: 170
Total Fat: 1.5 grams, 2%
Saturated Fat: 0%
Sodium: 80 mg, 3%
Carbohydrates: 35 grams
Fiber: 2 grams, 8%
Sugars: 24 grams
Protein: 5 grams

Breyers describes this as, "layers of delightful enjoyment. Real fruit pieces tucked under a blanket of creamy vanilla yogurt, plus yummy granola you mix in for the ideal crunch." This really amped up my anticipation and when I finally dug in, after mixing the blueberry puree with the rest of the yogurt, I was quite pleased with the taste. The yogurt was refreshing, but surprisingly not as sweet as I thought it would be. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but if you're used to sweet yogurts, be warned!

The fruit was a nice puree was touch, but it honestly didn't add anything in terms of flavor to the yogurt, but it did add textural interest when I got a piece of blueberry and granola together with the yogurt. The granola itself tastes very much like oats to me - too much so.
