Horrible Holiday Yogurt- Archer F

I was checking out Target’s four day sale today and one of the items I noticed was Archer Farms Holiday Yogurt. They had flavors such as pumpkin pie, sugar cookie, bread pudding (with chunks of apples and raisins), and egg nog, all priced semi-modestly at 59 cents. I was thrown into an impulsive tail spin.  I grabbed one of each flavor and two of the bread pudding.

As soon as I arrived home I opened the bread pudding flavor and dug in. Boy was I surprised, it was bad. Weirdly bad. I then decided well maybe it is just this flavor, so I opened the pumpkin pie flavor, even worse. Then onto the sugar cookie flavor yogurt,  not too bad, but not too good either. Finally, maybe I was just trying to punish myself, I opened and tried the egg nog flavor. So yucky.

Now I like to say I have a pretty diverse palate, I love to try new foods and I can cook pretty well too. My taste buds rarely fail me.  But, maybe it was my taste bugs. Enter my yogurt loving ten year old niece. She comes home from school and says OOOOh can I have a sugar cookie yogurt. I say okay. She then says, “Eww, maybe the pumpkin pie is better.” She then digs into the pumpkin pie, and says, “What’s wrong with this yogurt?”

I then noticed the 100% satisfaction guarantee on the side of the Archer Farms  yogurt. Dare I get my three dollars refunded to me? Technically there were no defaults to the yogurt, I thought to myself. But wait there was one major fault, the flavor. So yes, I will be returning the Archer Farms Yogurt to Target. I will update you on the refund situation.
