Yoplait Go-Gurt Review/Giveaway & 30 free coupons

By Laurie | July 11, 2010

True story: I am not a fan of yogurt. I’ve said it quite a few times right here on this blog. That’s probably because I have done a lot of diets and have gone through my share of yogurt containers. Usually if I have something too often, I get burnt out.

I’m always willing to give new products a try though, so MyBlogSpark sent me a coupon for a complementary package of new Simply… Go-Gurt and a “Simplify Your Life” prize pack that includes a pocket Etch a Sketch, weekly planner and a seat back organizer. You can win the same prize pack, so read on.

I’ve seen Go-Gurt in the yogurt section before, but avoided it because I thought *I* might look a little foolish eating yogurt out of a tube at work. It’s okay for your kid’s school lunches or snacks at home, but would any self-respecting adult slurp (or squeeze) their yogurt out of a tube with Spongebob Squarepants? A few months ago, I’d say no way. Now? Definitely.

Simply… Go-Gurt is made from simple ingredients and contains no high fructose corn syrup or artificial colors or flavors. Plus each convenient portable yogurt tube contains a good source of calcium and vitamin D. It is available in two flavors, Strawberry and Mixed Berry. They taste delicious. I prefer these to the regular version because they are the equivalent to the Light Yoplait which have less calories. Also? No cartoon characters.

I started carrying these everywhere. They make a perfect snack on the go. I even ate one while on break when I was attending Jury Duty. I just throw them in my purse in the morning and go. I have also thrown them in the freezer the night before and packed them in our lunches. They thaw and are ready to eat by lunchtime. You will love them, and your kids will too. I am completely hooked.

Want to give them a try? Want to win the prize pack pictured above? Simply (get it?) leave a comment with your favorite snacking tip (mandatory). If you would like to earn extra entries:

1) Follow me @laurie_pooh on Twitter and send the following message:

3) Subscribe to my blog in a reader.

Also, 30 readers who click on the on the “Free Yogurt” tab on the widget below will receive a coupon for a free package of Simply…Go-Gurt! After the 30 coupons are claimed, the micro site will include a link to a $1.10 off coupon so everyone who visits can share in the savings.

Giveway is U.S only, please. The winner(s) will be selected randomly from all valid entries on or around July 14. You must leave a comment letting me know your answer to the question above, as well as additional comments letting me know what else you have done to earn extra entries. Please also use your real first name and leave a valid way for me to contact you should you be selected as the winner. You will have 48 hours to respond. Good Luck!

Disclosure: MyBlogSpark provided the prize pack and a free product coupon so that I may honestly review Simply… Go-Gurt. I was not monetarily compensated for this review or giveaway.

  6. My healthy snacking tip is to keep dehydrated fruit by the computer. That way if I get hungry, I have something healthy to snack on. Because it is dehydrated, it also takes me longer to eat it,also.

  12. It is important to always keep proper portion sizes in mind. What you see in front of you, especially eating out, is more than likely 2 or 3 servings rather than just 1.

  17. My favorite snacking tip is to buy twice as many snacks as you think that you need! I have a 4-yr-old, a 3-yr-old, and a 2-yr-old and they seem to be eating constantly.I have stopped running out of snacks midweek by remembering to buy more when I do my weekly shopping.

  29. I keep fresh veggies cut up for the kids, each day we make a plate with celery and peanut butter or cream cheese ready to serve during the day. Makes it so much easier for the kids to just grab and go.
