There are signs all over for their yogurt and berries, so I got one. I love berries, and I like yogurt, and I thought the odds of anyone being able to fuck that combo up were pretty slim.<\/p>\n<p>Slim they may be, but the company that packages this shiite came through with flying colours today in the &#8220;we can fuck something simple up, just watch us&#8221; category. In the pic above, the inset is how the ads and the corporate website portray their breakfast snack. Can you see a difference? I can&#8217;t see a difference. Apparently, neither could anyone at Tim Horton&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>The yogurt was a sickly-sweet vanilla, and the one word I can think of to use for the &#8220;berries&#8221; was &#8220;glop&#8221;. As you can see, the &#8220;berries&#8221; look kind of like someone took a mouse, turned it inside out, and dropped it into a cup of fluff. This glop has no texture, and a vague raspberry taste combined with a very strong freezer burn taste. Yum! The &#8220;blueberries&#8221; were like chewing on tripe &#8211; they were dried out husks with a distinct leathery texture (think unsweetened, stale raisins). Nasty, nasty, nasty.<\/p>\n<p>Without a doubt, the vilest thing I have ever had the misfortune of ordering from Timmy&#8217;s, and a mistake I will not make again.<br \/>\n<br clear=\"all\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I went to Timmy&#8217;s to get a coffee this morning, and needed something to tide me over until brunch.
