The New Berry & The Old Berry

On my way to the new Westwood Pinkberry, I came to a screeching halt when I saw this painted on the window of The Big Chill Frozen Yogurt on Westwood and Olympic: "We got the new berry," and "plain tart."

I went in and sampled it. It was not half bad. It was opague and very creamy, even creamier than Pinkberry. It tasted like yogurt. But the aftertaste was a little funny, it was sort of an artificial taste. Not as fresh tasting as Pinkberry, and not as sweet. But I did prefer it over watery, icy, Kiwiberry.

The new Pinkberry is on Lindbrook, just west of Westwood Blvd, next to Subway. When I took this exterior shot, the window cleaner announced to the staff I was taking pictures. When I walked in, the yogurt jerk asked if I was taking pictures of the store, or himself. (Of course) I responded, "you!"

I thought I was in his good graces, so I asked for a plain and green tea swirl, but he said no. Colleen, any tips? I thought I had him in my pocket! It is BS that they will not swirl the two flavors. Why not? It requires no effort on the staff, he machine does it for them. Oh well. I sat down on the cheap plastic furniture out front, and ate my two-headed, all green tea flavored yogurt.
