Ice Cream vs. Frozen Yogurt

     Fairly recently, two frozen yogurt stores/restaurants have moved in to my neighborhood. Every day, when I walk from the subway to CSCL, I pass a frozen yogurt place. So I thought I could write a blog post comparing frozen yogurt to ice cream.

     Frozen Yogurt's main ingredients are yogurt and a sweetener, as well as whatever flavoring and coloring are needed for the desired look and taste. Ice cream is made from frozen cream (sometimes two types of cream), with flavoring. Frozen yogurt often has less fat, being made with milk instead of cream. From my experience, frozen yogurt is mostly fruit flavored, whereas ice cream has a much greater variety of flavors. Frozen yogurt is often softer (texture-wise) than ice cream.

Overall, frozen yogurt often provides a nice cool, tart texture, whereas ice cream is creamy and sweet. Thanks for reading, and if you have post ideas, put them in the comments!
