Berri nice to meet you

Everybody is doing berry (ironically except Pink "Berry"). One that keeps me coming back is KiwiBear. This used to be KiwiBerri - did the "Berry" copyright police silence them as this was too close to Pinkberry and KiwiBear was the next best thing with out having to go through the expense of changing all the letters in the masthead? 

This is in a strip mall on LaCinega and 3rd. It is generally empty - no lines and no computer generated tickets with your name spelled wrong, easy in and out parking. The decor is reminiscent of the "P"  - modern, space age plastic (easy to hose down). They carry 4 flavors which include Bluberri (yes spelled this way) which is actually yummi (couldn't help myself on the "i". )

It actually has a taste of berry past the first bite - it is richer and a than many of the other fruits flavored yogurts I have tried and a bit sweeter. Toppings are a good match on this one, but can hold up solo. They also have Strawberry ( and original and Mango)

There is nothing to compare to a bowl of fresh berries - especially this time of year - but if you are needing replace your Blueberry "Y", with a Blueberri "I", this is a good bet.

I saw the other day a show on the food Network where someone had 'perfected' the Ice Cream vending machine. It takes 45 seconds and I must say that the offered product 'looked' pretty damn tasty! The host of the show taste tested the vended with a local ice cream parlor's offering of coffee flavored (his favorite, ich!) and picked the vended IC.

I'm pretty sure that soon we will have the 'Boxberri' machines on every corner. Leave it to America to cut out the unnecessary human element in it's simple pleasures. I can hear the 'Have nice day' SeeThreepio sound coming with my cup of BoxBerri Original already!
