Cherry on Top frozen yogurt

I thought frozen yogurt was so '90s! For a relevant time stamp, the Seinfeld "non-fat yogurt" episode aired in November, 1993. Cherry on Top has put a new spin on the current fro yo craze, with fun yo flavors and toppings. Their focus is on "healthy," and no one is pretending this treat is totally fat free. In this photo of the Monrovia store, first notice the delightful cherry chandelier, then the dispensers and the some of the salad-bar style options of toppings. On the day I visited, yogurt flavors included some basics: original, raspberry, chocolate, and vanilla bean, along with some funkier choices: cake batter, strawberry banana, Hawaiian delight, pomegranate energy, cappucino, and caramel/creme. With the toppings, you can graze from sugary Saturday morning cartoon cereals, to the confectionery store with crunched candy bars, M&Ms, gummy bears and worms and Nerds, plus random things like sprinkles, granola, graham cracker crumbs, pralines, nuts, coconut, iced circus animal cookies, and lots of fruit. I'll leave you to your own imagination and taste buds...

I went with the cake batter base and added M&Ms, crunched Butterfingers, blueberries, along with various other treats. At 39¢ an ounce, it's a fine way to get your calcium and sweet-tooth fix at the same time.
