Review: Stonyfield Maple Vanilla Yogurt

 

• I Paid: $0.80 at Harris Teeter
• Description: Seasonal; Limited Edition; Smooth and Creamy

As soon as I heard about the limited edition Stonyfield Maple Vanilla yogurt,  I knew that I had to get my hands on some.  Seriously, tell me that a certain flavor or food is a "Limited Edition", and chances are I will search high and low for it.  Unfortunately, I couldn't find this particular yogurt for a while at my nearby grocery stores, so I kept searching- until they suddenly appeared at Harris Teeter a little over a month ago.  

As expected, this yogurt smelled and tasted like maple syrup, but not overwhelmingly so.  It still had a strong vanilla flavor but with a wafting syrup-y pancake touch :o)  I have bought this flavor a few times since I first found it, so I think it's safe to say that I like it a lot.  It is great mixed into cereal, and while I haven't tried this yet, I think it would be awesome to put a spoonful of this on top of real pancakes for a different take on pancakes with syrup.  If you like pancake-y foods, definitely give this one a try! 

Stonyfield Yogurt Cup

I'm one of those seemingly few people that take rebates and redeemable offers v. seriously- especially if it's for something that I like anyway.  Case in point- Stonyfield had a promotion a while back for a free reuseable yogurt cup, redeemable by mailing in a few foil lids that had the promotion printed on it.

Fast forward a few months, and I got this cute little package in the mail.  It's a cute Stonyfield brand yogurt (or snack) cup with a screwtop lid, so the top won't pop off and spill anywhere once it's closed tight.  Now I can buy the larger quart size tubs and put the yogurt in this cup, vs. buying the invididual cups all the time.  I also received a few coupons for Stonyfield and Preserve products which was pretty cool also.  Thanks Stonyfield!  If you aren't signed up to receive e-mails from Stonyfield already, I'd recommend it- it's the best way to find out about promotions, giveaways, and coupons that they offer.
