Menchie’s Flavor Locator Is Coming Soon?

Fro-yo girl here. I’ve been asking for a flavor finder/flavor locator feature from Menchie’s since 2016. It seems like a feature that should be part of any froyo chain app and/or website. Recently I noticed that the some of the locations on the Menchie’s website list “Today’s Flavors.”

I found today’s flavors for several locations:

https://www.menchies.com/frozen-yogurt-shops/frozen-yogurt-mill-plain-crossing-wa/flavors

https://www.menchies.com/frozen-yogurt-shops/frozen-yogurt-valley-village-ca/flavors

I checked the flavors listed as Today’s Flavors with the actual flavors at the shop in South Pasadena, CA. The list of today’s flavors was wildly inaccurate. But, I hope that the accuracy will improve with time.

As a frequent froyo eater, knowing the flavors that are available at the shop is extremely important to me because there are certain flavors that I really love. I know others who feel the same. They’re typically frequent froyo eaters as well. It’s a terrible feeling to go to a froyo shop and not find any appealing froyo flavors. But, it’s a wonderful feeling to find a flavor you love.

Years ago, some froyo shops would make a recording of the day’s flavors for people who called the shop. Technology should make it much easier for shops to share their flavors. It would take just a minute or two to post flavors on Facebook, Instagram, the website, etc. Every large froyo chain should have the power to offer a flavor finder feature. And, it should not only show flavors by location, but allow customers to search by flavor.

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
