The small supermarket around the corner from the Marketing Donut office appears to be advertising meat-flavoured yoghurts. Is this a groundbreaking moment in the dairy product world? Or just bad signage? http://twitpic.com/jtrqr
Yoghurt or yogurt is a dairy product produced by bacterial fermentation of milk. Fermentation of lactose produces lactic acid, which acts on milk protein to give yoghurt its texture and its characteristic tang. Milk is heated and cooled for an hour. While it is heated, the bacteria are added for fermentation. Soy yoghurt, a non-dairy yoghurt alternative, is made from soy milk. There is evidence of cultured milk products being produced as food for at least 4,500 years. The earliest yoghurts were probably spontaneously fermented by wild bacteria Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus native to and named after Bulgaria. The oldest writings mentioning yogurt are attributed to Pliny the Elder who remarked that certain nomadic tribes, including the Bulgars, knew how to thicken the milk into a substance with an agreeable acidity.

That's got to be the weirdest response to a post that we've ever had on this forum. So, you're promoting education courses, right (although your grammar is terrible and clearly no-one has taught you about the correct use of the apostrophe)? You know, some people would consider this spamming...
hese yogurt shops just never stop surprising you. Some are futuristic, some quirky, and some have fantastically awful names, like “Oh Yeah.” And as part of a local grocery store, Oh Yeah’s less a yogurt shop than a yogurt stand, hardly giving the “tart yogurt experience” most others afford. But at considerably reduced prices, it’s a great option for your daily fix of the tart stuff.
Located on the side of Todito grocery store in Adams Morgan, Oh Yeah is easily passed if you’re not looking for it. There’s no more than a few feet for ordering and eating, but ambience and decor are hardly a consideration here. With just one yogurt machine behind the counter, their operation is pretty bare bones. There are two flavors: original tart and honeydew, although they sometimes run out of one mcdba (evidently business is good).
Sounds like a Heston Blumenthal type combo...
Sadly, this probably just an object lesson in taking a step back, putting yourself in the shoes of your customer and being absolutely certain about the message your sign is conveying before you display it.
I say sadly, because the very thought of pork'n'apple, beef'n'horseradish or chicken'n'sweetcorn yogurts fills me with... actually, bile. It fills me with bile.
Don't get me wrong, though - I'd try a packet of strawberry flavoured crisps.
