2018 National Frozen Yogurt Day Deals

Posted on January 20, 2018 | Filed Under: Restaurants | Leave a Comment

Do you love frozen yogurt? Then check out this list of the best deals for National Frozen Yogurt Day on February 6.

Have you heard the latest “scoop?”  February 6 is National Frozen Yogurt Day!

One of my family’s favorite things to do after a long day of school and extra curricular activities is to stop by our local frozen yogurt shop for a treat.  I am a traditionalist and like the vanilla flavor.  Field Trip Boy enjoys tasting all the latest and greatest flavors.  Field Trip Girl, on the other hand, prefers the same every time – sweet strawberry.  While “Mr. SoCal Field Trips” has a fancy for cappuccino flavored.  We sure are a diverse family when it comes to frozen yogurt!

The History of Frozen Yogurt

Frozen yogurt first came about in the 1970s.  But it didn’t gain widespread popularity until the 1980s, when recipes improved to the frozen yogurt we have and love today.  The U.S. produces close to 50 million gallons of frozen yogurt a year and Americans spend over $200 million on this delicious treat.  Vanilla is also the most popular frozen yogurt flavor and I couldn’t agree more!

If your taste buds are screamin’ for a sweet treat to eat, you’re in luck!  On February 6, it is National Frozen Yogurt Day! 

In honor of NFYD, several businesses across the country are celebrating the day by giving away free frozen yogurt.  Did you hear that?  Free frozen yogurt, folks!

Last spring, while my family and I were visiting The Broad in Los Angeles, I discovered this quaint underground sandwich shop called Mendocino Farms in the California Plaza in Downown LA.  The food was fresh and delicious.  I hoped I could return again the next time I was in town.

However, a few months later, I was surprised to be invited to a media tasting at Mendocino Farms in Irvine.  I had no idea that the sandwich chain had expanded into Orange County and San Diego, so I was honored to be able to preview their fall 2016 menu items and specificially, their unique family-friendly dining area.
