Froyo or Frogurt Fad

Lately we have been frequenting Tutti Frutti outlets for our froyo aka frogurt (frozen yogurt). This milk and yogurt snack/dessert tastes like ice cream but is low/non fat, and without the heavy cream. So its a healthier alternative, right?

There are more than 50 flavours (chocolate, pomegranate, vanilla, kiwi, etc., etc.) and a variety of toppings (fruits, cookies, cereals, nuts) to choose from. These self serve froyo outlets may become competition to coffee and ice cream shops or is froyo merely a fad? For now, we do enjoy our froyo every so often with family and friends.

Note: Frozen yogurt originated in the 1970s in New England. Other than Tutti Frutti, other froyo franchises are Berry Sweet, Red Mango, Heavenly Blush, and Yogurt City, though I have yet to see these here.
