The Battle Between Frozen Yogurt and Ice Cream


It's official that the frozen yogurt craze has taken over America. With any craze, however, there are always going to be the skeptics. So what is it about it that makes it so appealing to today's society? Has America replaced traditional ice cream?

A lot of people have been turning to yogurt shops for their cool desserts because of the go-green mentality that most yogurt shops are purveying. People in America are starting to realize that going green is actually benefiting the environment and look to do business with companies that respect the environment as well. A lot of yogurt companies work to go green with their shops so customers are naturally attracted to getting their fix there.

Fro-Yo, as it is sometimes referred to, cuts the calories down by a great deal also. Even if you were to get a small ice cream from Cold Stone, you would still be putting down over 400 calories just in that one dessert. A small non-fat frozen yogurt is only 100 calories. It appeals to the health-conscious buyer, and it's great to see Americans becoming more and more health conscious.

It also appeals to the dairy-sensitive stomach. Many people who usually feel very sick eating ice cream feel completely fine after downing a frozen yogurt. Although it is still made with dairy products, a lot of the time the amount of dairy to water base ratio is much less than that of ice cream. If dairy products like ice cream make your stomach sick, try to find a venue that has a more icy based selection of fro-yo.

Frozen Yogurt vs Ice Cream


Yogurt Bar is delving into the classic case of the health benefits of ice cream versus frozen yogurt and want to share our conclusions. When considering the health benefits of frozen yogurt versus ice cream most people immediately look at fat and sugar content. It’s true, not all frozen yogurt is fat free and some can be high in sugar content, however there are several healthy frozen yogurts available, such as Yogurt Bar’s organic frozen yogurts that are non-fat and low calorie. But what about the additional health benefits of frozen yogurt? Surely fat and sugar content is not all there is to consider.

One major health benefit of all natural frozen yogurts is the probiotic content. Frozen yogurt that contains live bacterial cultures promotes better digestion.
