Calling a Spade a Spade
I’m afraid it’s a case of the “too good to be true’s” with Pinkberry. The darling of fro yo has recently had its sweet reputation soured with claims that, “the frozen treats don’t have the bacterial cultures that make yogurt good for you.” In other words, if Pinkberry was your get out of jail free card for working dessert into your diet…bummer, man.
As Pinkberry is one of my five main food groups, many a friend have delighted in forwarding me articles and news stories about the current lawsuit (doesn’t anyone work during the day??), eagerly awaiting my reaction to this turn of events.
Will I stop going to Pinkberry? I’d sooner give up Dancing with the Stars. Let’s face it folks—it is, after all, a frozen treat. How healthy did we really think we were being? Sure, we’re all concerned about calorie intake, but if I was really counting points I’d get a weight-watchers ice cream sandwich. Perhaps some wheat grass juice. I go there for the experience. For the always ripe strawberries and always perfect swirl. For the sample cup of mochi that Angela or JD never fail to slip in with my order (knowing that I like it, but don’t want to sacrifice one of my standard 3 toppings). I guess I’m just a sucker for quality customer service—show me that you like me, and you’ve always got a friend.
