So Berry Wrong on "Berry Chill" 

Some say that it takes a strong person to admit their faults.  And, fellow Epicurista readers, I have let you down.  I have led you astray.

You see, back on that adventurous evening - when I wrote the "review" and when I first ventured to the new Berry Chill in my area - I made a sudden and a seemingly rash conclusion.  I just didn't give Berry Chill the fair chance it so deserved.  You know, in retrospect, with perfect 20/20 vision, I realize  I should have waited - waited until I was completely sure of my dislike for this so-called " sour" yogurt.  But, instead, I as your Epicurista, made a split second impulsive decision to blog, claiming Berry Chill the locale for those lovers of "sour yogurt".    Dang it, I screwed up!

Yes, and I wish I could say that I left it at that.  But, I fell prey.  I don't know what it was -the long line out the door, the Purell Hand Sanitizer greeting me at the doorway, or the people who seemed to be so happy carrying their bitter yogurt as I passed them on the street- but I returned.  I did. 

I know- I said I didn't like it.  I lied.  The stuff is amazing.  Long story short, I am addicted to this stuff.    Here is my advice to the faint of heart:  If you try it and feel discouraged by the somewhat sour flavor, just get over it.  Go back, the stuff grows on you.  Who in the world is not a tremendous fan of flavorslike Peach Mango, Strawberry Banana, and  Pink Guava.   And - oh my gosh - they have Girl Scout Cookie options as toppings year round. WOW!!! MMMM....  Samoas...Tagalongs...Thin Mints.   And, adding strawberries as an additional topping takes away a lot of the Girl Scout guilt.  Love that too.

So, with all of this said, I will promise with all of my heart, to truly process thoughts before writing a review so as to not lead you astray.  And, if I threw you off the BC track, please accept my so berry heartfelt apology and return for an amazingly yummy frozen yogurt treat!

Sincerely,

Epicurista

TIP:  Go for the 2 flavors in a cup.  I am convinced, after visiting this shop 3 times weekly (so sorry!) that you get at least 10-20% more yogurt in a cup.   For some reason there is not a gaping hole in the middle of the yogurt.  Hopefully, this little tip will make up for my slight imperfection.
