Lotte Sou Ohto & Hakuto Yogurt Review

 

Fro-yo girl here. On a recent visit to Marukai Market in Little Tokyo, I found Lotte Sou Onto & Hakuto Yogurt, a frozen yogurt product imported from Japan. One 6.25 fl oz package was $2.59. On the back, it was labeled as sherbet. The ingredients didn’t mention yogurt or live and active cultures.

It looks like a container of yogurt but it says keep frozen, so I assume it’s meant to be eaten frozen. The yogurt ice cream/sherbet contains 5% yellow peach juice and fruit and 5% white peach juice.

Lotte Sou Ohto & Hakuto Yogurt: It was white in color. The texture was gritty like bits of ice and there were tiny pieces of yellow peaches. There was a cream aftertaste. It didn’t taste like yogurt and the peach flavor was faint. It was sweet but not tangy. I didn’t like the texture and the blandness.

One serving is 150 calories, 5g total fat, 24g total carbs, 24g total sugars, and 1g protein.

3 out of 5 stars.

Nagato Dairy Farm Japanese Yogurt Ice Cream Review

Fro-yo girl here. I recently visited one of my favorite grocery stores, Tokyo Central, in Gardena, CA, during the Nagano Fair. The Nagano Fair highlights the foods of Nagano, Japan. And guess what? I spotted frozen yogurt from Nagato Dairy Farm in Nagano. One 4.05 fl oz small cup was $4.99.

The yogurt ice cream is made with milk, fermented milk (yogurt), milk extract, sugar, etc.

Yogurt ice cream: The yogurt ice cream was frozen solid and took quite some time to melt. It was so dense and hard that it cracked the plastic spoon. I’m glad that it actually tasted like yogurt, and it was thick, creamy, and dense. It tasted like a mixture of cream, yogurt, milk, and sugar. It was fairly sweet with not much tang. While I liked it, it was super hard and tasted more like yogurt ice cream and frozen yogurt.

One serving (one cup) had 220 calories, 12g total fat, 23g total carbs, 23g total sugars, 6g protein.

The Nagano Fair continues until July 10th.
