My kid sister used to take yogurts to school with her everyday, you know the big chunky ones that are awkward to fit in lunchboxes, the oens where you have to use a spoon that you either forget to pack or it somehow gets lost. Well one day in the supermarket we went searching for a better alternative, and were delighted when we came across wildlife choobs.
Packaging.
The yogurts are bought in packs of 6, each yogurt is in a plastic tube, designed in different colours depending on the flavour;
Raspberry packaging is purple.
Strawberry packaging is red.
Apricot packaging is orange.
theyre easy to open, they have a small slit in one end, that is simply torn off to open the yogurt, then you just suck it, no spoons needed.
Each yogurt contains about 35 to 40g of yogurt.
The yogurts are all packaged together in a plastic wrapping.
Taste // Smell.
The yogurts smell like fruit, not quite as good as fresh fruit, but as good as a yogurts going to get.
The strawberry tastes pretty much like strawberries.
The raspberrie tastes like raspberries.
I personally wouldnt kniow about apricots, but my sister says it tastes like real ones.
Price.
The RRP is £0.99, and in most supermarkers are usually on Buy One Get One Free about once a month.
99p works out at about 17p per yogurt.
Other Information.
Yoplait Wildlife Choobs are yogurts obviously aimed at children, and made with real fruit puree. I think theyre ideal for lunchboxes and since they have no artificial colours of sweeteners in them, theyre a nice alternative to other yogurts.
A bonus to the yogurts is that they can be frozen, and with summer coming up it makes it a nice lunchbox treat.
And the packaging has a nice animal realted fact and joke that my sister always finds entertaining.
Suitable for vegetarians and they're gluten free.

My Opinion.
I think these yogurts are a nice treat, my sister loves them, she takes one to school everyday. The downside is, they come in backs of 6, and I dont see why, as theyre aimed to be in lunchboxes, and theres only 5 days in a school week.
