Move over, Ice Cream. Fro-Yo's back!

I absolutely love Frozen Yogurt. Whatever flavor it may be, with toppings or without. Period. Last summer, when we went to Manila to visit my dad, I made sure I got a piece, a scoop or just even a smell of Fro-Yo. If there was one place memorable to me in Manila, it would be the Fro-Yo shops. At that time, there was still no franchising business of it here in Iloilo. But surprise, surprise! I just ate my beloved fro-yo 4 hours ago. Ha! Unbelievable. I was just about to go home when suddenly I stopped to look at something smiling at me. Well, I felt it was inviting me in. Weird, I know. Ha ha. I was just so shocked to see that, ah at last, someone was selling it here in Iloilo too. So, no worries. My long, devastating days are finally OVER.

Okay, so to give you more background about Frozen Yogurt, or "Fro-Yo", here are some fast facts of the Yogurt Craze which gives Ice Cream, its closest competition, a run for its money:
