Frozen
Tasty treats are
By SHERYL WEINERMAN
Collegian Business Writer
If one screams for ice cream, then'
does one yell for yogurt?
. Frozen yogurt, that is.
Chances are, Penn Staters have
been trying the new frozen yogurt
parlors this summer to beat the heat
or enjoy a treat. In the past two years
The Country's Best Yogurt (TCBY)
and The Yogurt Express have opened
downtown. '
Today, ice cream is usually consid
ered a no-no on a low-fat diet. Can
yogurt fit into that diet then? Accord
ing to its brochures, TCBY adyertises
an "all-natural yogurt with almost 50
percent fewer calories and 80 percent
less fat than premium ice cream."
The Express advertises that "al
though Colombo (yogurt) reminds
many people of the finest ice cream,
it has 40 percent less calories and one
quarter the cholesterol."
Both stores offer many yogurt des
serts, from a shake to a sundae, a
crepe.to a cone all with toppings
like nuts, fruits, candies and whipped
topping. But with all the variety to
eating yogurt, it might be best to go
easy on the sugar-based toppings to
help and not harm diets.
Helen A. Guthrie, head of the Uni
versity's nutrition department, says,
"If one-third of yogurt is sugar, the

sugar has diluted some of its health

She adds that it's also best when the
yogurt is made with low-fat milk. If
not, the benefits or advantages over
ice cream are reduced. It's mislead
ing to consumers to let them think the
yogurt is 96 percent fat free, she says,
hut yogurt still is better than ice
cream, which can contain anywhere
from 10 to 20 percent fat by volume.
`lf one-third of yogurt
is sugar, the sugar
has diluted some of
its health benefits.'
A dietary goal should be that no
more than 30 percent of the daily
calories consumed come from fat,
Guthrie says. A hamburger provides
30 to 60 percent of its calories from
fat, and yogurt 40 percent of its cal
ories. Therefore, yogurt is not consid
ered a low-fat product.
Yogurt, its origins unknown, has
been around for more than 4,000
years. It may have been created in a

clay container where it fermented
into yogurt. The long lifespan (over
100 years) of Russian Bulgarians has
been attributed to yogurt. Once the
yogurt bacterium was identified as a
clue to long life, it lead to commercial
production.
A 100 percent milk product, yogurt
was hailed by the ancients as a mira
cle food and a cure-all that would
cleanse the body and purge the soul of
evil spirits. More recent discoveries
say the bacteria found in yogurt help
the digestive tract. An hour after the
consumption of yogurt, 90 percent of
it is digested, helping the digestive
tract compared to about 30 percent
for milk.
Carol Crago, manager of the TCBY
franchise, 128 Locust Lane, said her
store is not competing with the local
ice cream stores because ice cream is
not a health food.
She says business has been good
and sales didn't fall off in the summer
as predicted with the exodus of Uni
versity students.
Crago and Marlon S. Castillo of The
Yogurt Express at 418 E. College
Ave. (formerly the location of the
Train Station) say customers can't
believe their products really are yo
gurt, that they taste like ice cream.
Both managers say yogurt is health
ier and contains less fat than ice
cream.
