Yoghurt and fruit.....snacking style!

Advantages: A nice alternative to sweets.
Disadvantages: Not as good for you as first thought.

...After years of my husband being really underweight he has suddenly realised that the dreaded "beer" may have caught up with him, of course I think he is fine the way he is but in the true tradition of marriage he just won't listen! This being the case he has decided to start this "healthy eating lark!", which of course involves him deciding to do it and poor old me to implement it! This is how I came across the product I will now review. My husband and I have got into a habit of eating a pudding of some description after dinner, whether it be something with custard or cream, or sweets. To wean us of the dreaded and extremely fattening sweets section I have been buying pots of fruit in their own juice, or popcorn, this is when I noticed these. I always buy yoghurt raisons for my son as he is under the impression that they are...

Review of Asda's Yoghurt Covered Raspberries

Yogurt Bars

Advantages: Tasty, healthy
Disadvantages: None

...and tasty. When you hold these in your hand for too long the yogurt melts a bit but it doesn't really matter. The dried fruit inside is in bite sized pieces and fairly evenly dispersed throughout the biscuit so you are guaranteed a good helping of fruit in each bite. Like it says above the fruit consists of sultanas and berry. The sultanas are very juicy and I find the berry fruit flavoured pieces to be quite sweet and have a lovely taste about them. I think some people might say that the biscuits are quite dry. I do see how this could be the case but after all it's a biscuit and not a cake type product. I think the yogurt on top saves them from becoming too dry and gives it that extra hint of sweetness. The biscuits come in individual packaging and there are two biscuits in each pack. This I find is enough for a little snack. I tend...

Review of Mcvities Go Ahead Forest Fruit Yogurt Breaks

A yoghurt biscuit?! how random...

Advantages: tasty
Disadvantages: expensive

...I don't know about you but by the time it gets past 5pm i feel the need to constantly graze on food and it can't be fruit or salad type bits it has to be something very easy to get out of the cupboard and with that 'naughty' element to it. It was becoming a bit of an unhealthy habit though, constantly snacking on crisps and chocolate bars all evening so I went out to find an alternative and I came across these Go Ahead slices. They were on offer in my local supermarket so I thought I'd give them a go and I do now really like them. They are slices of biscuit with yoghurt flavoured topping inside of which are forest fruits and sultanas. They come in boxes of 6. They are individually wrapped with 2 slices in each of the 6 wrappings. I find that they are just the right amount to curb that sweet craving and have that texture that I...

Review of Mcvities Go Ahead Forest Fruit Yogurt Breaks

Strawberry Fruit Corner...Mmmm

Advantages: The best vanilla yogurt ever.
Disadvantages: I wish the fruit compote was smooth!

...I'd finished my tea, and due to my huge main course, i wasn't feeling up to my usual pudding, such as sticky toffee pudding or a slice of apple pie. I wanted something light, that would satisfy my sweet tooth. So i ventured over to the fridge, not knowing what to find, my mum had been shopping the previous morning and I was positive the fridge would be bursting full of treats! I was right. It was bursting full with yogurts and desserts. There was frozen chocolate desserts, chocolate puddings, little fromage frais, mullerlights, and wait...what was that..? A STRAWBERRY MULLER FRUIT CORNER. Wow I had not had one of these in a long while. I had had a couple of crunch corners and some of the newer dessert corners in the past couple of months, but no, i hadn't had a STRAWBERRY FRUIT CORNER in a long while. I think perhaps it was...

Review of Muller Fruit Corner Strawberry Yogurt

Muller Fruit Corner

Advantages: taste, smell, cost.........
Disadvantages: not enough!!!

...I've decided to write my first opinion on food, as this is my first one it may not be as detailed as needed but i'll give it a go, and theres no better product to start with than a lovely Muller Fruit Corner, Strawberry flavour ****Look**** As most people probably know Muller 'corner' yoghurts come in a pot roughly 10cm squared, with a large section for the yoghurt, and a smaller section for the 'topping' in this case strawberry. It says the product name on the lid, along with a picture of a spoon with some of the product on, and in the top right hand corner it shows the foil being peeled back to reveal some nice juicy strawberries!! It comes in a 175g pack, which is not nearly enough for me!!! which is why i buy three at a time (see below!!) ****Smell**** When you peel back the lid the smell of strawberries really hits you...

Review of Muller Fruit Corner Strawberry Yogurt

Theres fruit in the corner

Advantages: tasty
Disadvantages: none

...Muller fruit corner I had a cherry fruit corner yoghurt for my lunch today. These yoghurts come in a square shaped plastic tub with a foil lid. The lid is pink coloured foil with pictures of red cherries on. There are other flavours of Muller fruit corner some of the flavours are cherry; strawberry, peach and apricot, blueberry, blackberry and raspberry apparently there are now 21 flavours in the fruit corner range. The foil lid is coloured appropriate to the fruit. The pots contains 175 grams my favourite the cherry one contained 110 calories per 100g. The calcium quantity is good though more than a quarter of the daily-recommended amount In each tub there is a corner section that has a divide between it and the yoghurt this contains the fruit the fruit pieces are in syrup. The cherry yoghurt is suitable for vegetarians...

Review of Muller Fruit Corner Cherry Yogurt

Mmm...Muller Fruit Corners!

Advantages: Can mix the amount of fruit you want
Disadvantages: Fairly short shelf live

...M is for Mmmmm and M is for Muller, especially when the Muller in question is Muller Fruit Corner and the flavour is Peach and Apricot. Mmmmmm??. I was very fortunate because I discovered Muller yoghurts a good few years ago but for anybody out there who has yet to experience the pleasure I will try and explain why I find them so delicious. Background Muller Fruit Corners are just one example of a wide range of products marketed by the German company Muller. It all began way back in 1896 in the Southern part of Germany, Bavaria when a local dairy farmer called Ludwig Muller set up his own business. Today the company is still based close to its origins and it is now a multi million pound company with a turnover in excess of £250 million. The fruit corner was first launched in the early1980's and became an instant...

Review of Muller Fruit Corner Peach & Apricot Yogurt

Muller Fruit Corner packs a punch!

Advantages: Tasty, healthy, cheap!
Disadvantages: None

...I am quite funny when it comes to yogurt and don't really like many of them but the Muller Fruit Corner ranges are probably my favourite and I'm not sure that they have a passionfruit and peach combination so I am going to talk about the Peach and apricot flavour which is by far THE best flavour. There are actually 21 different flavours to choose from in the Muller Corner range which I like because they do give you a good choice. The cherry and blueberry versions are also good but there is something about the mix of these two fruits that makes it absolutely delicious. A muller fruit corner comes in a handy tub with a very creamy rich vanilla plain yogurt on one side and a fruit compot on the other. The pot allows you to fold over the fruit side into the vanilla yogurt for ease of mixing. I find though that it is sometimes nice to jsut...

Review of Muller Fruit Corner Passion Fruit & Peach Yogurt

Fat Free - Fruit Free

Advantages: No fat
Disadvantages: No taste

...packaging and sell it in a way that makes people think they are dieting? You open up your 120g carton and peer inside, thinking perhaps you are opening a small carton of skimmed milk that has gone off ? but no? Oh No it is supposed to be yoghurt! You dip into your teaspoon and what you get is a small puddle of slime which the one time Ciao! member Deano76 might have described as something unrepeatable (think you know what I mean, let?s say it is something only men have). You take a taste and wonder were the substance it. Was that a bit of fruit? Oops, it is gone before you can decide. It tastes very artificial and there is a strange after taste like chemicals. It is gone in seconds and you wonder, in fact you are quite certain that? it is? The Mango one is much better than Pineapple and coconut ? thicker and more substantive ? but very...

Review of Weight Watchers Tropical Fruit Yogurts

Not so passionate about this peach of a yoghurt

Advantages: Healthy, the yoghurt tastes nice
Disadvantages: the fruit is sickly, the adverts

...Why oh why did I agree to eat healthily? Because I would hear nothing but whining if I didn?t agree to it. It was only last week when I was still eating my 4 slices of toast with a thick spread of butter on them, Pot Noodles every other day, and a huge feast of Indian/Chinese/Italian takeaways on an evening. So what am I doing sitting here now with a yoghurt for my breakfast? Keeping Rachael happy, that?s what. Have some cereal then?, nah I?m not really fussed, not a fruit lover either. In the fridge I have 3 fruit corners from Muller. A Peach and Passion Fruit one, a Strawberry one, and a Blackcurrant one. The first is the one I?m going to tell you about. Relatively cheap at 99p for three at Asda, or bought separately for 39p, these yoghurts will be my breakfast until I can be bothered to actually get out of bed before...
