Check Out Yasso's NEW Frozen Greek Yogurt Flavor

Yasso is the only better-for-you frozen dessert that delivers unsurpassed snacking satisfaction because we blends real, natural ingredients and flavors with the ridiculously creamy, wholesome goodness of Greek yogurt to create an truly crave-able frozen snacking experience. We don’t think you should have to sacrifice taste for cleaner ingredients. We’ve reimagined ice cream and the results are ridiculous, nostalgic, scoop shop flavors that don’t skimp on any of the cookie dough, chocolate chips or decadent swirls you love.

We use rich and creamy Greek yogurt as the base for our products to deliver an indulgent dessert that’s lower in calories (80-150 per serving) and packed with protein (5-7 grams per serving), made without high intensity sweeteners. You can enjoy Yasso anytime of day whether it be breakfast in the morning, an afternoon pick-me-up, or late-night snack.

Price Chopper now carries three NEW flavors to join our Black Raspberry and Chocolate Fudge on shelf. First, Triple Peanut Butter A.K.A three times the peanut butter goodness – and what’s better than that? We mixed peanut butter flavored frozen Greek yogurt with the smoothest peanut butter swirl and the most delicious peanut butter chips around. Next, our Mint Chocolate Chip and Peanut butter Crunch flavors won’t disappoint. Enrobed in an indulgent chocolate quinoa crunch, our new chocolate dipped products are sure to hit that 2PM sweet tooth. And 3 PM, and 5 PM, but you get the point.

Checking Out – Planet Oat Oatmilk

MS, RDN Senior Nutrionist

There are some new items in the Dairy aisle, and they may be a good choice for those who are exploring more plant-based options, have allergies, or cannot enjoy traditional dairy. Today we are checking out Planet Oat Oatmilk! Oat milk alternates have jumped out in front of other non-dairy options, and are getting high marks from consumers for flavor and versatility.

Planet Oat Oatmilk checks a lot of boxes. Typically, oat milks are not gluten free, but this whole line can be enjoyed by those who need or prefer gluten free items. Those with allergies to cow’s milk, soy, or almond milk alternatives can happily embrace this refreshing drink. Added sugars are limited, which appeals to those who are cutting back.  They are also all natural, with no artificial ingredients or colors. Bonus – 2-3 grams of fiber, well known to support heart, cholesterol and digestive health. The fiber also adds to the creamy, rich texture.

Delicious and adaptable, Planet Oat Oatmilks may be used in a variety of ways – cooking, baking, as a coffee creamer, smoothie base and more – check out the recipes on their website for inspiration! They are a natural fit for overnight oats – the combination of oatmeal and oat milk added rich flavor depth to my breakfast. My family also enjoyed the Dark Chocolate and the Vanilla Oat Milk. An excellent source of Calcium, Vitamin D, B12 and Riboflavin, and up to 3 grams of protein, it is a solid healthful beverage option for kids and adults. Enjoy!
