National Ice Cream Month: Planet Yogurt Review

When temperatures hoover between the high 90's and mid 100's, I instantly have visions of something chilly.  Yesterday after a trip to the office supply store in the Triangle during the hottest part of the day, I was in desperate need of a cool treat.  Directly across from the office supply store in the Triangle sits a yogurt shop, Planet Yogurt.  I had frequented several months ago with my colleagues and recalled I enjoyed the initial experience and wanted swing in for another treat.  When you enter, Planet Yogurt, you are greeted with six dual yogurt self serve machines (photo left) and yes it was had to decide upon flavors.




Irish Mint (nonfat) - I'm not a huge fan, but I'm a big Irish fan so I couldn't pass up this opportunity.  It reminded me of spearmint gum.  Not my favorite, but one I'm sure my husband would LOVE.


Angel Food Cake (nonfat) - It was light and airy leaving a lingering sweet butter taste.  It was so yummy it kept me coming back


Cake Batter (low fat) - The only way to describe this flavor is to close your eyes and imagine the homemade buttermilk my grandmother used to make.  It was DELISHious!  




After you've created your concoction you move on down the bar to the cashier, place your cup a scale to determine how much you owe ($.39 per ounce) then enjoy!  The cost for my creations was $3.39, not too shabby for a sizable treat!  The flavors at Planet Yogurt rotate weekly... so if you want to snatch up a bowl of any of the three flavors I enjoyed be sure to make a trip soon.


You can check out Planet Yogurt at one of their three Austin locations:  Triangle, Hill Country Galleria, Domain 2.
