Pecan Store May 16th, 2009

When I go somewhere that lets you pick out your own ice cream toppings, I can’t help but notice that pecans are always ignored and completely overshadowed by peanuts and walnuts.

That is until I was at the mall a few weeks ago and suddenly realized that I was walking through a sea of people carrying brightly colored cups filled with all sorts of fantastic flavor combination. The source, I discovered, was a little shop called Mojo Yogurt.

The place was definitely different than anything I had seen before. Completely self-serve, Mojo Yogurt only carries fat-free frozen yogurt and features flavors that range from your classic chocolate and vanilla to exotic passion fruit and sugar free blueberry.

After you fill up your cup, you get to pick your own toppings and decide how much or how little you want. And the best part is that they have tasty chopped pecans. I’ve been there several times now, and while the yogurt flavors and the toppings are consistently rotated, the pecans have always been there.

My absolute favorite flavor combination is a little bit of chocolate yogurt, a little bit of vanilla yogurt and lots of chopped pecans. That little cup totally makes my day.
