McKinney, TX Spotlight on Yogolution - the newest place in town to get a sweet, healthy and COLD treat!

Oh, how I love being the first to find a new hot spot in town. And I really think I'm really on to something here. Like I'm Indiana Jones and I've just discovered a rare hidden jewel...

What is it? YOGOLUTION!

Located just South of the McKinney/Allen border on Hwy 121, tucked into the new shopping strip that faces Lifetime Fitness, Yogolution's modern sign subtley calls out, "Try Me".

And so I did.

My husband and 22 month old son, Gavin, made our way over to the new spot right after a butt-kicking of a Spin class at Lifetime Fitness. And what better way to replenish the 600 calories we just burned? A frozen, sweet treat! And while they didn't have the exact calorie and nutritional content on hand, the writing on the wall was there. Literally (from their website):

These phrases, as seen on their under-construction website, were written all over the interior of the shop. I immediately felt better, all guilt gone away. I wasn't eating something BAD, rather something oh, so very good!

So how is Yogolution different, and why should you check it out?

The store is self-serve. I believe there were 12 flavors ready to be sampled...I had watermelon, blueberry, coconut, strawberry and chocolate samples. It was some of the best frozen goodness I had ever eaten.

After grabbing my own cup, filling it up with how ever much I wanted, of whatever flavor I wanted, I made my way to the check out where there was a topping bar. The topping bar had fresh fruit, cheesecake pieces, brownie bites, candy, and everything you'd expect to find as a "mix in" at many other ice cream shops.

Not bad for only 39 cents per ounce!

Inside the yogurt shop was a very calm modern feel - glass tiled walls with blue and white accents made a very clean backdrop to this new destination. There was an adjacent patio with tables for enjoying your yogurt when the weather invites you outdoors.

I asked the cashier when they opened, and was surprised to learn just 5 days ago!

And back to why you should try it out.. I think this picture should say it ALL!
