New Food #2 - Mövenpick Yogurt

So I was reminded when talking to my Mom on Thanksgiving that I had not done any new foods since the first one, and that it had been a bit since I updated the blog.  I've had a cold for the last week or so, so I'll use that as an excuse.  =)

So as anyone who knows me can attest, I like my yogurt.  Chobani yogurt is fantastic, and I was pretty sure I wouldn't be able to get any here in Poland.  So I tried several of the local Polish brands but the yogurt style here tends to be more liquidy (is that a word?) and much less custardy (what about that one?), which isn't really the way I like it.

I lucked out though when I tried a brand called Mövenpick of Switzerland.  It's a custard-style yogurt (slightly thicker than Yo-plait) and is really really good.  There are a few flavors that are definitely different than what you see in the US, such as Strawberry-Rhubarb, Apple Pie, Plum, Caramel, Apple-Pear, and Strawberry-Guava.  I haven't tried all of the flavors yet, but the Raspberry, Caramel, and Blueberry are all fantastic.  The limited-edition Coffee flavor was not so hot.


Interestingly enough, the Mövenpick yogurt sold in Poland is made in Finland, not Switzerland.
