Carbing my control

In our silly attempts to not only control the universe, but to also eat whatever we want without actually ingesting it, we somehow gave the good folks at Dannon the brilliant idea that their new "Carb Control" yogurt could be a good thing to put out on the supermarket shelves.

I tried this whatever it was only because I started using coupons (I figured out you can actually get free stuff) and this was one of those free items.  Yes I know, "now we know why it was free."  But seriously?  It tasted nothing remotely like any yogurt I ever had anywhere, ever.  As a matter of fact, as soon as the spoon went in my mouth I panicked on how the new medicine must be altering my mind as I clearly recall getting a  yogurt  out of the fridge and this was not yogurt.  It was whipped Ivory liquid soap with artificial berry extracts and a topped off with a bag of aspartame.  I then looked at the container, it read:  "Dannon (R) Light'n Fit Carb Control Strawberries 'N Cream NATURALLY AND ARTIFICIALLY FLAVORED.  80% less sugar and 1/3 fewer calories than regular lowfat yogurt.  Keep refrigerated..." blah, blah, blah... and THEN... in the smallest of print...          

                                         "Cultured Dairy Snack"

So there you have it.  I was right it was not yogurt.  They  compared it to yogurt, but they never stated it was yogurt.  Be proud, you're actually eating a "Cultured" dairy snack as opposed to an "uncultured"(?) one I guess?  Because we put our culture all over it... ahaha...  yessiree...  it is cultured and it was free.  Whew.
