So I was at Ultra Foods the other day taking advantage of their big Yoplait yogurt sale. They were out of the light cups so I went with “whips,” which I’d never purchased before. HUGE MISTAKE. Check this out:
- Yoplait light yogurt? six ounces
- Yoplait whips? four ounces
Yes: You get a third less product for the same price — and it appears to simply be Yoplait light yogurt that they have simply whipped up so it’s full of air. Stir, and it collapses like a souffle into four ounces of real yogurt. Nice trick, Yoplait! Not only that, the texture is completely off. I don’t like it. The kids don’t like it. Good thing I have 10 more cups…
So what products make you mad?

I happen to love Yoplait Whips! It clearly says on the label that it's 4 ozs, so it's not like they're intentionaly tricking you or something. It is whipped, and knowing that, anything whipped IS going to be full of air.. AND why would you stir it? There isn't any fruit on the bottom.

I agree with Rachel. I too bought whips many years ago and was aghast when the volume decreased by nearly half when stirred a bit. Whether it is marketed as 4 oz or 6 oz, it comes in the same size packaging as their regular yogurt and costs the same so you are indeed getting less for the same price. It felt sneaky to pump something up with air to increase the volume and basically charge the consumer for air. I never bought it again.

My favorite Yoplait whips are strawberry, raspberry and orange crepe. Please ad blueberry flavor to the mix. Whips are my favorite dessert!

loved reading these comments...and I love whips....orange cream , raspberry, lemon and lime are my favorites. they are my comfort food. you people made me laugh I wish they would sell more varieties of whips in the local stores...one could argue that the reason the stores have limited stock is because of available space, however, the whips are always sold out, so, maybe if they move some of the other brands that don't sell as quickly out of the way, there would be more room for the variety of whips us whip lovers crave
