Bloody delicious.

Was in the local Co-Op today and saw single pots at 70p each or four for £2.

On the other side of the aisle was a pack of six for £1.74... weird.

Have just scoffed two lick

This kind of thread is what PH is all about, for me smile

Do you mix it all together or keep the yoghurty bit and corner fairly separate?

Aye, can't be doing with truffle oil baskets on a coulis of raspbrry jus. Even my microwaved kippers came out like Mother Theresa's sandals. (I know a song about that, but anyway...)



Anyway, I scoop a bit of the fruit and then add a proportional bit of yoghurt, the object being that both compartments run out together.


Probably got an idea for an ad campagn here (if you recall Cadbury's chocolate eggs)

Nooooo; scoop all the fruit into the yogurt, stir so it is evenly coloured & then eat, yum.....

This is definitely the way to do it. Other ways pale into insignificance.

Nooooo! if you're going to do that you might as well buy a normal yoghurt!

Eat the fruit, then eat the yoghurt on its own.

This is the ONLY way to eat fruit corners.

They're too sweet. My o/h takes them to work as part of her lunch so I have to suffer a fridge full of the damn things which reduces room for meat.

Sometimes I throw them away just to make room.

If I do eat one then I do yoghurt/fruit proportionally with no mixing.

Sometimes I don't even eat the fruit paperbag

Genious thread! Blob of fruit and the rest yoghurt for me, only way to eat it. Wo betide running out of one or the other. I DON'T lick the pot out, really.

You can stack them up - I can fit three between the shelves.

Not only do I lick the pot out but I lick the extra bit off the lid too lick

Black cherry is my favourite. Not keen on the silly combinations like persimmon and gravel.

I love the yoghurt in Fruit Corners (only the fruit ones with the unflavoured yoghurt; it's got this lovely, creamy taste to it) but am indifferent to the fruit-flavoured bit... having been brought up never to waste anything, this usually results in me scoffing the "fruit" as quick as possible, carefully licking the spoon to avoid any cross-contamination, and only then enjoying the yoghurt.

I sooooo hear you.

The yoghurt bit is delicious, but the sickly, slimy 'fruit'? Bleuch!

However the good news is that plain Activia (in the small pots) comes very, very close.

I suppose you could spread the 'jam' bit onto a nice piece of toast...



Or you might be able to link up with someone who only likes the fruit and do swapsies nuts

All these strategies are good, IMO, except the mix it all together at the beginning one (I hope this thread doesn't degenerate into name calling and "my yoghurt's better than your yoghurt" etc).

Actually the ones with gravel instead of fruit are nice too, if it's simple gravel then you really get to appreciate the taste of the yoghurt. I must get some on the shopping list...

love them. The packs aren't worth buying becuase they're abit on the small side.
They need to make larger muller corners that are twice the size. Same with Pettit Filou (the larger pots are still abit small).

Fave is probably the apricot one, then strawberry. Hate the crunch corners, especially the one with banana yoghurt

Muller Light, or possibly Lite (TM), comes in larger pots for some reason. An acceptable substitute if the 'real thing' is unavailable (or there's a BOGOF deal and only one pack left ...)
