YOGHURT
Is it just me, or is yoghurt oh-so stylish? Not to mention edible for even the most pedantic of calorie counters.
I stumbled across the above series of advertisements recently, and I must admit, I'm in love. Cultured dairy takes on a whole new level of culture with Connoisseur (oooh my goodness, it makes my toes wiggle with the French-ness of it: imagine brekfast on a city balcony, flower-box in bloom with fresh fruit, croisants and aforementioned yoghurt!)
On a more realistic level, for my own breakfast each and every morning, I have half a cup of Special K (generic, but the flakes are quite tasy and it's amazingly low-kilojoule) plus two spoons of either strawberry or peaches-&-mango Dairy Farmer's Thick & Creamy Diet youghurt. It comes in large tubs and the stuff is delicious, so moorish and full of fruit pieces that one always feels inclined to scoop them out whenever in the vicinity of the fridge.
Vaalia Blueberry and Vanilla yoghurt is amazingly tasty too; my two favourite flavours combined. It's lovely for dessert... or even with Milk Arroroot biscuits dipped in it.
Also, Although Yoplait Forme' diet yoghurts that have the consistency of re-condensed milk- as all stringently diet-type yoghurts do- they come in incredible, decadent dessert flavours like Strawberry, French Vanilla, Field Berries, Mango, Classic Cheesecake, Banana & Creamy Honey and Sticky Date Pudding. It's like eating a small, sometimes-dessert without the engery and fat content... and without any of the texture.
I even adore the little tiny Petit Miams, they take me back to preschool with little packed lunches in decorative metal boxes. Lunch is daunting, but I think it would be easier to eat from an antique biscuit tin, or a small leather picnic case with a long strap attached. And a floral napkin, just for the sake of it.
One day, I'm going to print myself a t-shirt with a Warhol-style with a tub of yoghurt with "got culture?" written on the label.
